The Palm Business Book [Paperback]

Book Description

March 2003
Unlike a normal computer book, The Palm Business Book is designed to appeal to the way business professionals and typical Palm users think. Using language and humor proven effective with his live audiences, Larry takes practically any user through the process of understanding Palms in ways that are unavailable with all other Palm OS titles.

Larry's 'recipe' approach to Palm use allows the busy professional to skim quickly through the book, only focusing on those areas of greatest interest. The plain-English explanations cover general interest topics in chapters one through five and then amplify explanations for particular career paths in the balance of the book.

So as not to leave the abject novice out in the cold, there are two reference chapters at the back of the book which will get even the newest Palm owner up to speed and ready for the book?s productivity advice.


Editorial Reviews

Review

There are so many ways Palms can help you be more productive in business that I hadn't considered before. -- Jim Workman, Publisher, Photoshop User Magazine, Feb 2003

About the Author

In 1999 Larry established PalmPlanning, the first Palm only training company, and created the first Palm training video anywhere. Numerous national companies like Pepsi, Lawrence Livermore National Lab, GE, and the National Association of Realtors all hired Larry to speak.

In 2002 Palm, Inc. asked Larry to develop a certified training program for new Palm employees (even though he has never been a Palm employee.) Based on the success of his training course and materials, Larry was invited to conduct several classes daily in their theater to the delight of the standing-room-only crowds.

As a result of Larry's interaction with thousands of Palm students every year, he has continued to develop more targeted training materials for Palm users of every stripe. He now has a half dozen video titles and has authored The Palm Business Book in the same plain-English style that has made his live classes so popular.

A noted technology expert on topics beyond Palm OS handhelds, Larry writes for Pen Computing magazine, Mac Design magazine, and PhotoshopUser magazine as well as maintaining a teaching position at the University of South Florida in Tampa, Florida.

Larry has appeared on numerous television shows and has conducted interviews with newspaper reporters and radio personalities regarding Palm OS technology. Larry travels globally to deliver both Palm training and keynote speeches for widely varying trade groups and Fortune 500 companies.

5.0 out of 5 stars Palm business book......OUTSTANDING!!!, February 16, 2010
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Palm Business Book (Paperback)
Best 'how to' book ever!

If you have a Palm OS device and don't
read this book......you will be the big loser!

Worth it's weight in gold. The only mistake a
Palm user can make is 'not' reading "the Palm
Business Book"

Marty from Poughkeepsie, NY
