Correction (RE: Nice try, but fatal flaw)
WordSmith is great for editing word documents, but it can't be used for tables (ok, it can display small tables, but it's not really usefull for big ones), images or read webpages offline.
If you want to read a webpage offline (for daily viewing, I prefer AvantGo, but for pages I store once to have them accessible all the time I really prefer isilo), it's a great tool.
To get fast and easy MS Owrd support with an included button for conversation, simply use WordDocConv ($5), which does the trick: http://www.palmgear.com/software/showsoftware.cfm?prodID=5920
Isilo is a nice doc reader, and it's own format is even smaller than doc (about 20%).
If you want to view a word documents with charts and tables on your Palm, e.g. take a report with charts, diagrams and graphics to a meeting, isilo is a great tool while WordSmith is useless.
If you want to edit Word docs or to use TrueType Fonts, you need WordSmith. So both are a perfect team for power users.
For full-featured viewing, very large docs and offline reading (take informastion from web ressources with you) I really love isilo.
zap!

RE: Nice try, nothing fatal
VFS SUPPORT.
I'm waiting for Blue Nomad to get Wordsmith up to par with this. I would be in heaven if I could use WS with my card. Isilo may fill that gap, for the time being.
...In accordance with the prophecy...

RE: Has iSilo™ Free disappeared?
No free version of iSilo 3.0
RE: Has iSilo™ Free disappeared?
[iSilo Free] is freeware and can be downloaded from the download area at the old iSilo.com site. (http://www.iSilo.com/old/index.htm) However, please be aware that iSilo free can not yet read documents in the new iSilo 3.x format that iSiloX generates. A new version of iSilo free that will have the ability to read documents in the iSilo 3.x format is under development. It will have similar capabilities to the existing version of iSilo free and is expected to be available sometime during the first quarter of 2002.

I am not advocating iSilo, just remarking some facts.
