"My name is Saeed. Till recently, I was a university student majoring in archaeology. I like archaeology a lot, but the perspective of becoming a scientist and getting buried under a pile of ancient books did not please me. Half a year ago, I discovered in myself the talent of a great poker player. I got involved into playing money, and I�m telling you I was not bad at that. A month ago I participated in a large private tournament; the stakes were high, and I had to borrow a large amount... I�ve lost the game... I don�t have the money to repay the debt. All my friends turned their backs on me, and I have no chance to return the money... If I don�t repay the debt, I have only a week to live. Today I got a phone call. That was my professor William Wates from the university wondering if we could meet..."

iambic has just released version 12.07 of their popular Agendus for Palm OS.
Agendus for Palm OS is a comprehensive personal productivity booster that can be customized to work the way you do. Plus, it is smart enough, thanks to our new auto learning technology, to adapt how it interacts with you based on actions performed during previous sessions.
Since 1996, Agendus for Palm OS has been making a name for itself -- racking up awards and receiving glowing reviews. The number of new users joining the established Agendus community continues to grow on the Palm OS side and on the recently introduced Windows Mobile side.
Agendus for Palm OS version 12 includes powerful journaling capabilities, a personal project manager, all new �at-a-glance� or Card views now more colorfully organized and streamlined, a new Contact View "Photo Dialer" mode, support for attaching items (documents, images, etc.) to meetings, tasks, memos and contacts and standalone alarms, just to name a few.
Version 12.06 was a maintenance release introducing full support for the GSM (AT&T) Palm Centro smartphone. In particular, by upgrading to version 12.06, owners of the GSM based Centro will be able to take advantage of Agendus' contact dialing, emailing and text messaging integration capabilities.

RoGame Software has updated its Silkscreen to version 3.7.8.
SilkScreen lets you perform all of the functions normally associated with the bottom part of a Palm device - the silkscreen - in the main display area. It also serves as an application launcher and has several other useful features like Virtual Graffiti, so that you can write in the main display area of the display.
It does this in a unique manner by reserving small programmable tap areas at the corners and sides of the display screen and thus is immensely useful for devices with either collapsable Graffiti areas like the Tungsten series and devices without such an area like the Treo600. In each of the four corners are tiny quadratic areas that emulate the usual four silkscreen buttons.
They are arranged in the exact same order and have a button closely nearby. The buttons allow to globally enable or disable the tap areas and appear in a darker shade to indicate that a corner area is active. Activated areas are functional in any application. At the bottom of the screen are two lengthy tap areas that serve a different purpose.
The left one triggers a menu of all applications found on the device including those on cards. To launch an application just tap this area and take your pick. The tap area to the right of the applications bar is used to access the keybords, brightness and the Clock application. In addition there are also several shortcuts and battery status. Give it a shot - you'll love it.
Features:
This sounds like a very nice program!

PhoneSwitch Deluxe, by BoraWare, has recently been updated to version 1.3.
PhoneSwitch is a simple utility that redirects your Palm OS based smartphone when it is hung up. Redirect to either a preset application or have it switch to the last program you were using. Quit landing in the phone program when you dialed from a different launcher. Stop reloading the web site you were reading just because a call came in. Let PhoneSwitch handle everything.
PhoneSwitch Deluxe also offers advanced options such as: an exclude list that allows you to exclude a program from being switched to after a call, an option to only launch the specified app if the call is incoming, and the option of resetting the set app to a preset one after a set amount of time.
Features:
Having myself been switched from a running program to an incoming call and not being returned to my program afterwards, this program sounds like a nifty little utility to have!
Grab it here for $8.00.
