Now that I am finally getting involved with using my Palm, I am curious as to what other owners of the m500 use their Palm for and what programs and apps you use. Since throwing out my Franklin, here is what I have done:

#1: Agendus...love this thing!

#2 Texas Hold 'EM - I don't gamble, but I am addicted to this poker game.

#3 Acupressure and Do-in - A fun program with info of eastern ailment treatments

#4 ZLauncher - I want this to work, and still try to make it work when I have time, but may be giving up

#5 Diabetic Monitor - There are a lot of diabetic programs out there, and this one has serious issues with printing information, but I use the results for me, and it is by far the most user-freindly of any that I have tried.

#6 SolFree - I am not a big fan of Solitaire, but once in a while this is nice for a break

#7 Happy Days and Reminder - Still working with both of these to determine which I like best...any suggestions that make one better than the other?

#8 eProcates - Since I have a few health issues (among them diabetes) I like being to look up the meds I am on and check them out.

#9 BJ Pro - Black Jack. I am horrible at this, but it resets my money to $500 on the first of each month.

#10 FileZ - Still learning the ins and outs of this program, but it appears to be very helpful

So, please share what programs and apps you use!

I am big into backing up, so I use these programs for backup:
1.Backup Buddy VFS www.bluenomad.com
2.Card Backup www.jkware.com

Here are others that I like a whole lot:
3. DateMate
4.Holiday USA
5.Spray Paint www.rogame.com
6.Trivial Pursuit www.handmark.com
7. Bejeweled www.astraware.com
8.JackSprat. I hate having programs on my Palm that I DO NOT use. I got rid of expense with this program and the welcome screen.
9. Palm Reader Pro I read a whole lot of e-books.
10. Acid Image www.red-mercury.com
I have other assorted games on my 515. I run most programs off the SD card.

I agree with your #1: I too like Agendus
Then what else I installed on my m500
ShadowPlan: very nice outliner. Sometimes I also use Progect
BackupbuddyVFS: a must have. I use it with my 16MB mmc
LauncherX: Better than standard launcher
MaTirelire: complete and free program to manage your money
HandyShopper: the best in his category
DESJournal: simplify the entries in daily journal
SecureIt: password and other data encription
TealLock: maybe I'm paronoic on safety, but I stored a lot of personal information on my palm
DateDiff: nice program to calculate the differences between two ... date
DB: a free DB program
FileZ: another must have
Palm Reader with many ebooks
Marble2: nice game
SolFree: sometimes I use it
Gammon: I have it, but ...
X Master with many hacks and DA: with hacks I personalized my palm :)

Regarding reminders, you may want to check out GreatDates. Its a great little program. And, if you buy software from PalmOne's Software Connection section of their website by the end of the month, you can get GreatDates free!
