Wait, the software is not just for Palm users, it is also compatible with any gadget and application. Now, that quite new, is it not?
Well, Rainlendar software gives us that privilege. Rainlender is actually made for Palm PDAs, but we all know that the Palm fever has spread all over the world, so the good thing out of the money that the company is making from the phenomenon is that they have devised this software that can be used with other types of software, for example, with Yahoo!

 I guess you could call me a person who simply cannot get enough of tones and music for my mobile phone and PDA. Even though there are times in the office where silent mode is required, like in meeting rooms, I still activate the current ringtone that I have on my PDA. In a month, I subscribe to at least three new ringtones. That's how addicted I am.
I am so glad there's a PDA software available that particularly caters to ringtone lovers like me. It is called Ringtone Lite. This is really amazing because I could receive the latest and hip music ringtones direct to my Blackberry 7100 gadget. I could choose from different genres of music -- you name it, from rock and jazz to movie themes and classicals, Ringtone Lite has it.
You can download the Ringtone Lite for only about a minute and then save it in your handheld; it's not bulky at all and even if it is at 56k, it's all worth it because of the convenience that it brings. Imagine, you get the fresh music easy and fast, hassle-free. Although you don't have to request for individual tones, your main subscription to Ringtone Lite already enables you to make just a few clicks and presto! You already have your favorite ringtone in your PDA.

 I know most of the time, you compute the days between today and the next payday, or how many days you have left before your girlfriend's birthday comes. Going back to the days also help in determining personal matters like the many days that have passed since your last visit to the doctor or since your last sexual activity. Counting the days between helps you organize better.
That is why DaysBetween was created. This is a cute and useful freeware that I found on the internet which you can download in your PDA. It computes for you the years, months, or days between two separate days you have entered. It displays the hours, minutes, and seconds between times, too, so you can manage your appointments well. Isn't that a wonderful and neat package in a handy gadget like Palm?
As with any other freeware, DaysBetween has certain system requirements for it to function properly. With its 63 kb load, your PDA must have at least a 2.0 operating system. The good thing is it does not take into account colored devices so whether your Palm is monochrome or colored, you can run DaysBetween.
