Palm Computing® Connected Organizer Software
by Ken Hancock

IMPORTANT! The below software is not compatible with Palm OS 5.x.

As I no longer have time to dedicate to Palm development, I have released the source code as open source software. Please feel free to use the source however you like. All I ask that if someone updates my applications to OS 5 compatibility that you drop me an e-mail so I can add a link to your web site.

UPDATE: N90 Buddy package now includes N90 Buddy Companion 1.0.3 which fixes a problem with converting databases with only one roll.
