Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great, But a Little Dated
Review: This was great Palm when it was new. It's clear, complete the author knows the Palm and it's and not oversimplified. Even now I would recommend this as the place to start for those who are not technophobes. But the book is over two years old. There's lots of new software out like Wordsmith which gives you real fonts and the ability to save in .rtf, and peripherals like those folding keyboards.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Many apps
Review: Very useful from a user's pov. not very good for programmers.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Dated but useful
Review: Well it is time for a third edition (with an updated OS description). I bought this book for a "Mastering the Palm" class at the University of Texas at Arlington. The class was great. We used the book as more of a placeholder to be sure everything was covered. Some people had older Palms and the book matched. I was helped greatly as I was coming from ground zero and the only book that read previously was a "how to install". The CD ROM and web site information took us beyond the scope of the book.

One real advantage of the book is it encourages you to learn what you have. Then when you need that function you are already aware of its presence.
