Guest guest Posted December 26, 2005 Report Share Posted December 26, 2005 My wonderful husband got me a Palm Life Drive for Christmas and I would like to load weight watchers programs on it. I know WW has their own software and there is also the software that has been around for a few years (the one in the files). Which one is better and why? Space is not a big concern because my PDA has 4 gig hard drive. What are some other programs that are realy good for PDA's? Kris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 26, 2005 Report Share Posted December 26, 2005 I guess it depends on if you belong to Weight Watchers online. You have to be an online member of E-Tools to get the PDA software for free. If you are a member of WW Online, then I believe you have to pay extra for the PDA sofware. You also have to sync it to the website in order to update (or some such foolish thing). Personally I like the free WWCalc program. You don't have to sync it to anything. I would LOVE to have the Life Drive!!! I have a Palm Zire 71. Since it is still working just fine, I won't be upgrading for some time... but I would LOVE the 4 GB hard drive for sure! > My wonderful husband got me a Palm Life Drive for Christmas and I > would like to load weight watchers programs on it.

Guest guest Posted December 26, 2005 Report Share Posted December 26, 2005 I have been wanting a PDA for a couple years now and my husband surprised me with this one for Christmas. It is really cool! You can put photos on it, access the internet, and play MP3's. It probably does more than I will ever use it for. I already put all my appointments in it and everyone's birthdays with alarms to remind me, and of course found a few cool games to put on it. It also has a fast food nutrition guide on it and a cookbook program. When my husband gets done playing Book Worm on it I am going to check out the list making program on it. I down loaded the program in the files but I can't open it. What program do you use to open a pdb file? Is it just the food guide or is there a points calculator and other stuff with it? I am an e-tools user and ww on-the-go is free with your e-tools subscription. It has the points calculator, points tracker, complete food list, and restaurant guide. I tried to download this one as well but for some reason it won't sync up. I got it on the desktop and everything but it wouldn't hot-sync with WW.?

Guest guest Posted December 26, 2005 Report Share Posted December 26, 2005 To read the PDB files, you should use the wwcalc.prc file. I think that should be in the files section too. I had a problem with the WW version and syncing on my desktop and had to use my laptop for that. For me, it might be a firewall issue. The laptop doesn't have the same firewall sofware installed. > I have been wanting a PDA for a couple years now and my husband > surprised me with this one for Christmas. It is really cool!
