BTW, I do want to say that the developer's been incredibly supportive and responsive in the past, so I think this simply reflects his frustration with P1 and not an unwillingness to continually improve his great program which I've been running on my TC for years. I can't migrate completely to another PDA unless I know that Shadow will run properly!

bump!! I would like to know too!!

Seems to work OK as a self-contained program, but experienced lockups whenever deleting any item with a link to the Task PIM, requiring a soft reset. Didn't try with links to the other PIM applications. I sure hope the developer will come up with a fix soon - his comments on the Yahoo board are not very encouraging. Anybody have more recent information on this? Meanwhile, the developers of Bonsai have updated their application to be T5 compatible...

As far as Documents To Go Total Office goes, all the components have been updated (Documents To Go, SmartList To Go, and Beyond Contacts), but I do not know how the Total Office is packaged. Is it one install?

Feel free to respond on the thread pertaining to the software list here.

Thanks,

Yes, I see that date now at the bottom. Sorry, kind of new here and just learning the ropes.

It appears that Docstogo Office is a single package containing Premium, Beyond Contacts and Smartlist. I'm not sure if they just bundle all the individual ones together, or it's a single install. I'm hesitant to install if it's going to cause problems. I suppose I could email Dataviz.

thanks,

Virlin Guest Posts: n/a	Compatibility ViaMichelin Maps and Route Planning v1.0: medium-high once you get it running - you have to use the Files application to rename or create a folder called VMCarto_Maps on Internal memory or SD card to put your maps in. Full hi-res screen, works well. GPS a bit slow to connect via Bluetooth, and woe betide you if you turn Bluetooth off before disabling it first in Maps and Route Planning! Unless you enjoy hard resets, don't follow their advice to install FileZ T3 support. Documents to Go Premium Ver 7.002 build 829: medium-high. Full hi-res screen eReader from PalmOne CD v.2.5.4f: medium. Full hi-res screen. FileZ 6.4: medium, but don't install the T3 support. I'm running mine from the SD card. Plucker v 1.8: medium-high. Don't use Plucker Desktop to install the reader, because it only does v 1.6, which is 320x320. The 1.8 reader is a separate download and does full hi-res. Resco Viewer V 2.11: medium-high. Well worth the $$. A good graphics viewer, fast, and allows a bit of image adjustment. (brightness/contrast/gamma). Full hi-res screen. HandMap 4.7: low-medium. Bit of a puzzle - dragging the map north-west caused total collapse, and various errors occurred at other times as well. The vendor's support was able to reproduce the fault on the emulator, but not consistently. In the light of other comments here, and having removed some possible sources of conflict, I'll try again. I think some problems are caused by conflicts: something (MobiPocket? EasyCalc 1.22?) messed up Plucker, Documents to Go, and eReader. Go figure.

Telik Registered User Join Date: Oct 2004 Posts: 2	RifleSlugs-W Update Still nothing from Penreader, maker of RifleSlugs. They don't answer my emails. I'm going to try again, and hope! The reason the program doesn't work, is that it blanks out the screen and displays nothing. Perhaps there's a workaround, but I've seen none.

seascape What's New? Join Date: Oct 2003 Posts: 136	Documents To Go was running fine on my desktop. When I installed the T5 to my laptop, DTG automatically installed there too (from the palmOne CD). Can we use DTG on both computers with that one registration license? I couldn't find that at Dataviz' website. Thanks.

Thus, when you purchased Total Office, you would probably end up getting the latest versions of Beyond Contacts, Documents To Go, and SmartList To Go.

Anyway, I would still recommend contacting DataViz to be sure.

Thanks,

Virlin Guest Posts: n/a	Handmap I tried all sorts of things, but no way could I get Handmap 4.7 to run without crashing out big time. However, as a stopgap, version 4.5 (but not the Clié version!) runs in colour, but no hi-res. Better than nothing, but not good enough for something I've paid for! I have notified the developers of the problem, but no solution yet. I'd rate 4.5 medium at least.

I ordered and downloaded the Total Office package and I did have to download all the separate packages. You were correct that it appears to be the latest versions of the individual packages.

Final question. Is Chapura's Pocketmirror Key Suite compatible, and a worthwhile conduit upgrade?

thanks again,
david..

If you use the conduits provided with the Palm on the installation CD, it also synchronizes the data in Outlook with the built-in PIM applications on the Palm. Beyond Contacts and Key Suite use their own applications and databases. Thus, Agendus and DateBk5 can access the data if you use the bundled software on the installation CD or PocketMirror, but they cannot access the data in Beyond Contacts and/or Key Suite.

I can go into more detail if you like, but I hope this gets the general idea across.

Thanks,
Lance
