This book is unique in that it is not a rehash of Palm's manual and it is not a bunch of programs and demos thrown together. It is a practical, concise guide on how to apply your Palm to everyday tasks. The great part was that no other software was needed than the core ones that come standard with my Palm. I really enjoyed chapter 4 on how to use my Date Book function for tracking my job hunting efforts and keep a fitness schedule. This book is a must read for anyone who really wants to get the most from their Palm.
