Tired of digging through your wallet, looking for pictures of loved ones to show off at office picnics? Lose all those pictures cluttering your wallet and store them on your Palm device with the simple, powerful PhotoSuite Mobile Edition 1.0. Installation is quick and easy and the browsing software takes up only 100 KB of memory in the handheld. This is essential as pictures average around 50 KB (more for color) and, for most of us, every bit of memory counts.

The desktop interface is slick and very easy to negotiate, using an intuitive drag-and-drop system for viewing, importing, and exporting files. Most popular image file formats are accepted, including JPG, GIF, and BMP. Video files (AVI, ASF, QuickTime, and more) are also viewable at a full 30 frames per second--if the device has enough free memory to store them, an unlikely prospect for all but the smallest chips or most memory-enhanced gadgets.

The image quality is surprisingly clear, with 16-color grayscale the norm for most devices (the Palm VII only supports four-color grayscale and the Palm IIIc offers 256-color). If an image is too large to display on the Palm's screen, unseen portions can easily be brought into the window with the stylus. Users can easily beam image files and albums between handhelds, though some larger files might take a couple of tries.

Those who use their PDAs as virtual billfolds will love adding their snapshot collections to their receipts and to-do lists with PhotoSuite Mobile Edition 1.0. --Rob Lightner

Amazon.com Product Description

This software lets you store, view, and share media files on both color and 16-level grayscale devices. It includes both desktop and Palm OS software. Media files can be acquired from hard disk, CD ROM, or Kodak Picture CD Perform. A handy photo editor enables quick photo fixes and enhancements such as crop, rotate, and color correction. You can also review and adjust frame rate and length of video clips, and set the file transfer size and color depth for optimal viewing of photos and video clips.

Also included is PhotoSuite Mobile Organizer, a desktop application that allows you to edit and enhance photos as well as optimize videos prior to transferring them to your handheld device. PhotoSuite Mobile Edition offers conversion to popular photo and video file formats, including MOV, AVI, WMV, JPG, TIF, GIF, PNG, and BMP. View video at a full 30 frames per second (includes pause and single frame advance/rewind capabilities), and view files at full screen, in thumbnail albums, or as a list. Create slide shows with timed or manual playback. Add notes to a file, zoom and pan photos, beam your individual files or entire media albums to other handheld users, and beam your PhotoSuite Mobile Album to other handheld users.
