ScanConfig - There are a number of barcode-enabled PalmOS handheld devices on the market, mostly from Symbol Technologies. These scanners have dozens and dozens of built-in features-which types of barcodes are scanned (and which aren't), whether or not check digits are scanned, how many seconds the scanner tries before giving up, whether the scan beam is wide or narrow, whether an "aiming beam" is activated before the actual scanning beam, and so on. Unfortunately, none of these parameters are accessible to the end-user of the devices. Programmers can access all of them, and may chose in individual programs to allow end-users to control one or more of these parameters, or may simply "hardcode" some particular set of parameters into the software.
ScanConfig changes this situation. ScanConfig is a new "Preference" (like the preferences which allow you to set formats, date and time, etc. on the Palm) which allows the end-user access to ALL of the features of the scanner, so that the scanner can be configured EXACTLY as the particular application (and the user) require (as a point of reference, the standard Symbol "Diag" program allows you access to a FEW of these parameters, and doesn't save your settings at all, so it really has little or no value other than for quick tests). Of course you can also activate the scanner from within ScanConfig to test the settings you select.
· Complete access to all features of the scanner
· Accessed as a standard "Preference" panel
· Up to 16 different named configurations
· Accessible from other applications
· Password protection
· Automatic configuration on bootup
· Configuration transferability
· Scan from within ScanConfig

PalmPrint PalmPrint - Why print from your Palm handheld device?
You can print some of the information stored in your Palm connected organizer from your desktop computer, but there are times when that's not what you need. Perhaps your job involves visiting customers in the field, or working at trade shows, and you need to print out an order or a receipt on a portable printer
On Hand On Hand is a powerful tool for performing inventories using a Palm Computing platform handheld device. Inventories can be taken manually on a standard Palm OS unit, and can also be taken using the built-in barcode scanner of the standalone Symbol SPT units, and also with the Symbol CSM150 and PSC Momentum plug-in scanner modules for the Handspring Visor
Handy Label Handy Label - There are a number of very nice, very flexible programs available for desktop computers to allow you to print barcode labels. If you have a portable barcode label printer, however, it may well be because you need to print labels "on the go" - while walking around a shop, supermarket, or warehouse, or even in the field
RaceBase RaceBase - There are a number of PC-based race scoring software packages available, and times recorded by PocketTimer can be imported into virtually all of them. But for the complete handheld solution, there's RaceBase. RaceBase combines the times from PocketTimer with information about the race entrants in order to completely score the race
Race Announcer Race Announcer - Racers love to hear their names announced as they cross the finish line. A handful of people win their age group, but for the rest, nothing provides that "warm, fuzzy" feeling like the thrill of hearing your name
PocketTimer (Palm OS) PocketTimer (Palm OS) is the timing component of our Palm-based race-timing solution, which can be used by itself or in conjunction with the other components of PocketTimer Pro for a more complete solution. Here are the features of PocketTimer:
Logging of times is done on the main screen, shown at right
AreaCoder AreaCoder - Just to find the numbers in your Address Book that you want to change is no easy task using the built-in Address Book application.

UnDupe UnDupe - Automatically removes duplicate entries from the Calendar (Date Book), Contacts (Address Book), Memos (Memo Pad), and Tasks (To Do List) (or the Franklin TaskList, if present)

Handy Randy is the ultimate random number software for the Palm, easy to use but with features galore
