Harrison's for handspring is great. I'm a medical student and this product helps me on the wards on a daily (hourly) basis. It's more concise than the real Harrison's (thank god), but still contains all the essentials: differential diagnosis, pathophysiology, management, treatment... It is easy to use, and you can search for an explicit topic or pursue a more general signs/symptoms route. The springboard module is great because it doesn't take-up any memory. I'm currently in my first rotation and I've already impressed my attending and resident with a few gems....

I am a second year medical student and with the purchase of my new visor I couldn't wait to get my new harrison springboard module. Alas, it was [amt] which is pretty stiff and not much in the way of reviews to really know if it would be worth my student loan money. So here are the goods for all those who just can't decide to blow the [amt] or not. The good is that it has a pretty cool search, with spell checker. It is well organized and good for looking up differentials and giving you some tidbits. Unfortunately, it is totally a companion manuel, aka it really lacks alot of info and you are going to have to look up stuff in the real book to find out anything. It is a pretty nice module but just not worth [amt] in my eyes. If it was half that I would highly recommend it. I actually think the washington manuel is a better module as it has more information on treatment.
