Thanks for the reply Paul. I was curious about it... I recently got a PalmVx
to replace my Sharp Organizer and while I was messing in the web looking for
some programs for it... I landed on the GSP url... was curious about it...

I guess the standalone units that have been talked about in some threads
here are a better proposition.

regards
John Kajfes
