Palm OS Updated:

Destaller Pro

RoGame Software has updated its Destaller Pro to version 3.4!

How many times how you had an urge to play your favorite game or use your favorite Palm app and you're really enjoying yourself - when suddenly... your device resets!?

Isn't that just SOOOOOOOO.. umm.. irritating?

If times like this get you as mad as they do me, then you need Destaller Pro! Destaller Pro is an application oriented uninstaller. Applications store many different files that often cause resets and the necessity to do a hard reset when not removed properly. Destaller removes this danger and headache. In addition Destaller allows you to maximize the memory of your device by allowing to safely remove single files, 'a68k' Files, saved and unsaved preferences and more.

If you ever had problem with an application and were told by tech support to gather specific information about your device plus a list of all installed applications and Hacks, you will GREATLY appreciate why Destaller Pro is an excellent tool for trouble-shooting problems. It can export or copy a list of all applications found in RAM and on memory cards, has an extra screen for important device information, and lets you delete an application's data files separately.

Features:

  • Maximizes RAM
  • Application centric
  • Easy to use
  • Great interface
  • File grouping

Two New Initiate Skins

The Skins keep coming!

The new skin builder for Initiate is helping the skins to come. If you have a Mac, then give it a try! It's really easy to build skins now, or to tweak some of the old ones.

Andre has a great new skin in 'Alien Planet'. Of course you will need to tap&hold the buttons to figure out what those strange alien symbols all mean, but the cool look is well worth it!

Some of the skins users are coming up with and sharing are pretty swift! Check them out!! There are at least 25 skins available - some for Initiate 2 and some for Initiate 3.


Hezahonker has updated Milk to use glass scrollbars.

Can anyone challenge these two powerhouses of skin development?

Get these new skins here, again for FREE!
