To All,
I was recently asked by our CIO to create a wish list of development
tools for palm computers, while Codewarrior & POSE are musts, what other
products ( that you have used!) should be on my list. Target
applications
are currently undefined, but are sure to include some database apps,
I remember reading in the palm-literature that you
should try to do as little of "processing" on Palm
device as possible. Because palm devices are
fundamentally made to "collect"/"gather" data.
The "data processing" task should be kept reserved for
the PC.
My question is : How much of "processing
Its not helping !
