HoldSync allows you to HotSync by holding one of your hardware buttons.
Enabled by default, it can't get any easier than that:
Hold first hardware button for 8/10 of a second and release to HotSync.
(You'll hear a confirmation sound after holding the button long enough) Disable by clearing the "Hold..." check-box, or change the button and the hold period to your liking.
Best of all, you won't lose a precious button for this:
Pressing the button shortly, does the default action for that button.
Holding the button when device is unplugged, should do nothing at all.

At power-off: If shown, private records will be made safe, and 'Security' will be launched (see Q&A).
Before 'normal' launching of applications under OS5+
When tapping the 'Find' silk-screen button (asks for password to continue, OS5+)
LensWarning LensWarning - Tested under TH55 only - may work for others too.

The warning is by LED and optionally a sound, and won't interfere with other programs or power off
BacklightDAs BacklightDAs - instead of draining your battery because you THOUGHT you've turned off the backlight under that strong sunlight (and honestly, who can tell?) - download these DAs today!

(pTunes already has its own user-friendly means to show this console window, but users wanted DA...;)

FindPrivate FindPrivate - If you're using the 'Find' on your PalmOS device, and if you also hide/mask private records, you may miss some search results that you'd like to see.
Not always you may remember to show private records prior to 'Find', and even if you do - it's a little bit cumbersome when you need your data fast
BrightnessDAs BrightnessDAs - with a stroke of your finger (depends on the DA launcher you're using and the options you choose to invoke my DAs) your could quickly choose between minimum brightness (great for reading at night), low (~20%, for battery-conscious users ;), medium (50%, should be enough for most situations) or maximum (100%. The range above 50% up to 100% is superfluous)
AutoOffExtender AutoOffExtender - AutoOff is when your device shuts itself off automatically after a specified period of user-inactivity, in order to conserve battery power.
AutoOffExtender can detect when your device is powered on after being off for less than a few seconds, and extend the auto-off time for that session, assuming you need more time to watch the screen with no action
PowerBright PowerBright allows you to toggle your brightness from maximum to minimum by holding the 'Power' button for a configured time.
You may also hold the Page-Down/Up buttons too, to adjust the brightness down/up respectively - the step value and treshold are configurable for your convenience
