Guest guest Posted January 19, 2002 Report Share Posted January 19, 2002 Larry, IIRC, you can just get the freeware version from the site.

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2002 Report Share Posted January 19, 2002 The Isilo.com site has a 30-day trial version, not a freeware. That is, unless you see something that I'm missing. Does the trial version continue to operate after the 30-day period?

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2002 Report Share Posted January 19, 2002 , A Palmheld computer is well palmheld. It is a small device that runs your life for you and in certain circumstances, can assist other functions. The programs can be acquired off the net or from CDs etc and then installed onto the palmheld device and then the said item is dropped into ones arse pocket and away we go. Mine at present, runs a variety of medical packages, address book, word processing, to do lists, calendars and hyperlinked documents (some we have developed at RemoteMedics). To say that such a thing may run on Windows 98 would defeat the whole purpose of the palmheld computer. You want something that doesn't crash everytime you say boo or start enjoying yourself. Contrary to popular belief 95 or 98 does not refer to the year the operating system was released, but to the percentage chance that it will crash on any given day. Now please do not ask if PalmOS stuff runs on Windows 98 or I will have to set Andy Thug on you Ross > Re: PDA software > > > Are these Palm programs compatible with ordinary PC's and Windows 98? > JC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 19, 2002 Report Share Posted January 19, 2002 Larry, I have no clue about isilo, but must ask the question. What type of documents do you want to store and view on your Palm? If it is HTML based, try AvantGo, free and also easy to use. If you want to bounce some ideas about mail me offlist.

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2002 Report Share Posted January 19, 2002 My reason for asking Ross was to see if I could transfer medical information ie algorithms, flow charts etc onto one of these things to use for study rather than carry a laptop?

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2002 Report Share Posted January 20, 2002 You can now obtain / record / interpret 12 ECGs with PDA. Excellent for remote sites as these ecgs can be transferred to main line via PC for assessment >>> ross.boardman@... 01/19/02 06:11pm >>> , A Palmheld computer is well palmheld.

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2002 Report Share Posted January 20, 2002 Yes, you can. There exists everything from ACLS algorithms and medical manuals to " ebooks " you can read recreationally.

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2002 Report Share Posted January 20, 2002 BTW, if you want to buy a PDA but have a limited budget, I noticed yesterday that you can buy reconditioned PDAs from Handspring.com for $99US (reg price $198US).

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 Some of you may already know about it but since I'm new to PDAs, I didn't. There is free drug reference software (with free updates) available at http://www.epocrates.com/products/rx/ I have check out the information on a couple of medications with my Facts & Comparisons book and it appears to be accurate. The only catch is that you have to sign up to the website to be able to download and get the updates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 30, 2007 Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 YES my students use this a lot. I am not a PDA owner. But I use the online Epocrates.
