SyncNotify SyncNotify is an app for the other applications that need a hotsync to be installed properly. This app does not SIMLUATE a hotsync, it just makes the receiving application believe that one occured.
For example, I copied the IBM Java VM from my SD card to my palm. Well, the application was unusable because it needs to be synced to install properly
PalmKeeper PalmKeeper - PalmKeeper allows Palm application developers to keep track of important information about their programs.
Record the Name, Creator ID, Version, Status, Status Date, Downloads, License, Price, Sales, Capture rate and Gross Profit of your applications.

JExpense2CSV JExpense2CSV - A Java JAR File to export the ExpenseDB.pdb to a CSV File. Because of Java it is OS independent.
What's New in This Release:
· - length check of AppInfo removed (on MAC it is 512 bytes ?!)
· -STARTER class is now public
· - only the indexes of the label fields will be exported
ASPectX ASPectX - was originally designed as an accompaniment to Microsoft's Visual Web Developer 2005. ASPectX also stands alone as an ASPX development tool for the Palm.
The point and tap interface reduces to amount of text input the user needs to do. Creating texts on all PDAs is a productivity bottleneck, so the interface trys to eliminate as much as possible

Multitasker Multitasker - This program allows you to run 4 multitasking-enabled yBasic applications at the same time(three in the background and one in the foreground).
NOTE:You cannot run compiled applications or non-multitasking-enabled yBasic applications with this tool
IRDA Tag IRDA Tag - Multitasker 0.99 Enhanced
Note:This program requires Multitasker 0.99(or possibly higher). Other versions may produce unpredictable results, and it will not work just from yBasic's programs menu
This is a basic laser-tag game for the Palm that works using the infrared ports on the Palm devices. It supports all of the basic laser tag features
StuffToTurnIn StuffToTurnIn - This is a program designed to remind you to turn in assignments.

LegacyRun Run non-multitasking (legacy) applications in Multitasker
MultiTunes MultiTunes - This program allows you to play propietary music files in Multitasker. The music format is highly compressed, so files usually ake up less than 32 kilobytes.
