Product Info


Conclusion

The real �boss� of travel is the wallet, but Trip Boss beautifully handles the details of travel planning and budgeting, all on the Treo where information can be consulted and updated easily as you go. I could wish for better integration of currency exchange rate updates, flight status, and weather, but the program�s extensive features, particularly its check lists, will come in handy. Its biggest strength is probably for business travel, which I no longer do much of, but it goes the extra mile to accommodate personal travel, too. That�s me! See you in Saint Louis. Or Boston. Or hanging over the rail of a boat on its way to Alaska. So many possibilities, so little time.
