PalmIshido is a free (GPL), polished and challenging tile-matching puzzle game with multiple full-color high resolution (OS 5 required for high resolution) board and piece sets (default, hieroglyphic and Ugaritic pieces are included), based on the rules of Ishido.
You place pieces on the board, one by one, beside existing pieces, hoping to get four-way matches.
The rules for placing pieces are:
If the new tile has only one neighbor, it must match it by shape or by color or both.
If it has two neighbors, then one of these must have (at least) the same shape as it and the other must have (at least) the same color as it.
If it has three neighbors, then either two of these must have (at least) the same shape as it and the other (at least) the same color as it, or else one of these must have (at least) the same color while the other two have (at least) the same shape.
If it has four neighbors, then two of the neighbors must have (at least) the same shape as it and the other two must have (at least) the same color as it. This is called a "four-way".

ForceDelete ForceDelete is used for deleting files in RAM (or Program Memory) that cannot be normally deleted because they are in use.
It does this by scheduling them to be deleted on reset and then by performing that reset.
ForceDelete is a control panel so you need to open the Palm Prefs application to access it
CleanStart CleanStart lets you control which applications get reset launch codes. In Diagnose mode, CleanStart also lists most of the applications receiving reset launch codes.
This slows down the boot but may be helpful for diagnosing reset loop problems. To uninstall CleanStart, go to the Menu, and choose "Uninstall"
OffFlush OffFlush - With the first NVFS handhelds, a memory region commonly known as DBCache has been introduced. The DBCache holds databases that have been decompressed from Flash in order to be used – if it runs out, no more databases can be opened
FixWiFi FixWiFi - Due to an apparent bug in the Palm TX's and LifeDrive's operating system, an unnecessary event (firstUserEvent) is generated whenever the WiFi disconnects (e.g., due to inactivity) or fails to connect.
This can result in incorrect functionality in whatever application is running when the disconnect happens
SwapGems SwapGems - The goal of SwapGems is to remove vertical or horizontal lines of three or more matching jewels.
You can swap vertical or horizontal neighbors by tapping on the two jewels, but only if the result makes possible the removal of some jewels
FixField FixField- Newer Palm / Treo devices (more precisely, ones with one-handed navigation) have a bug which means that many older applications that present a text field for input where the field used to be pre-selected for data entry (e.g., writing with Graffiti would immediately enter data into the field) now require one to tap on the field before typing
ClipExtend Remove the 1000 character limit on clipboard copy and cut
