Quickies: Two-Way Sync for HanDBase, m105 Cases, Audio Books

Posted By: The People Below Wednesday, March 7, 2001 10:17:50 AM

Multiple Palm users can now work on the same HanDBase database, such as one user in the field and another at the office, without risk of losing data when the database is HotSynced. DDH Software has announced a new two-way synchronization conduit to safeguard data that might otherwise be lost when changes are made to a database on the Palm and the same database on the desktop. The two-way conduit is available as an add-on feature for $10, although registered users can purchase it for $7. HanDBase retails for $25. -Paul Hoffman

Don't waste time with Palm's replacement covers, Brando is selling a line of clear replacement cases in various colors for the m100 series for the same $20. Each comes with a flip cover and replacement buttons, too. -Ed

MobileBriefs has announced plans to start a service that will allow handheld users to listen to audio books and news in MP3 format.

MobileBriefs believes that users should never have to settle for what someone else thinks they should listen to and can decide for themselves with their very own personal business and news show -- tailored exactly to the topics they wish. Users simply set their business topic preferences, industry, commute time, and the service automatically "builds" a personalized daily show, both ways. Users then transfer their show each day from the Internet to their Palm and go.

The company intends to licence the service to wireless ISPs so users can download content anywhere they are.

The service will first be available in English and will then be provided in Japanese, Spanish, German, Chinese, and other languages. It will be available on July 1. -Ed

Very nice for m series owners, but when will us IIIc hold-outs get our just desserts for cool aesthetic enhancements for our Palms?

IIIc, a cul-de-sac?

Am I the only one to feel this way or have IIIc users been left out "in the cold" after investing their money in the first color palm only to see it obsolete just six months after buying it?

If it does what you want it to it is never obsolete.

MS Access sync?

Michael Andersson @ 3/14/2001 6:56:53 AM #
The handbase deal sounds good but I am looking for a nice way to sync a MS Access database with multiple users in the field. Any ideas?
