'Palm @ Work & Play' is a practical, concise guide on how to apply your Palm to everyday life and save it from hanging out with the dust bunnies. This book is unique in that it is not a rehash of Palm's manual and it is not a bunch of programs and demos thrown together. The great part was that no other software was needed than the core ones that come standard with my Palm. I really enjoyed chapter 4 on how to use my Date Book function for tracking my job hunting efforts and keep a fitness schedule. Standing in a checkout line, or waiting for a bus has gone from wasted time to production, fun or relax time; author Courtney Thompson shows over 40 ways to do it. His love of education shows; he suggests how both teachers and students can Palm handhelds for scheduling, course outlines, and course content. Chapter 9 entitled 'Forward Thinking', has suggestions on possible future uses for Palm technology and asks the question: "Palm engineers, are you listening?". This book is a must read for every Palm user who really wants to get the most from their Palm handheld and get some great suggestions of how to do more with their Palm device.
