Hacks On Palm OS5

I am about to receive a review unit of Palm's Tungsten C for a 30-day review. I am really looking forward to it, but am wondering how the existing software I'm running on my old reliable IIIxe will translate over. In particular, I am curious about the hacks. For those of you who may be new to the PalmOS, or perhaps haven't explored the depth of software available from sites such as PalmGear, hacks are small pieces of software that extend the functionality of the PalmOS. To use them, you must first install a hack management software such as TealPoint's TealMaster or Linkesoft's X-Master.

I've been running X-Master for years with no problems. Unfortunately, X-Master doesn't work under the new Palm operating system called OS5, that runs on the Tungsten C as well as Tungsten T and Zire 71 from Palm. TealPoint claims that TealMaster will run certain hacks under OS5, but doesn't go into detail about how to discover which will work. Happily, Linkesoft's site links to this site, where Germany's Daniel Siefert explains how TealPoint manages where others fail, and how to tell if a hack will work.

Time will only tell how my experience goes. {Jonathan}

The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool. nolvadex buy nolvadex To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow, Creeps in this petty pace from day to day To the last syllable of recorded time, And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more: it is a taleTold by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing.
