Since we've got people with units in hand, does it make sense to start a list of software apps that are/are not compatible/compatible with issues?

As soon as mine arrives (grumble, grumble) I'll post my apps and their compatibility. Anyone else?

Should be largely the same list as the T5's.

It seems like that's not turning out to be the case, so I'd like to resurrect this thread...

Can people post as they find software incompatibilities?

So far AIM seems to be a serious problem, causing hard resets.

I've got the following installed that seem to work:

Agendus Pro 9.05
Championship Euchre 6.20 (6.16 ran but everything was cut off on the bottom of the screen)
ClockDeluxe 1.50
Farkle 1.01
SpaceTrader 1.2.1
Uninstall Manager 2.70

Asia (by PDAMill) has caused a couple of soft resets, but they're not reproducible. I reset once starting a game, and another time launching the app. Both times I got the "Fatal Error" message after reset pointing to Asia as the culprit.

eReader Pro 2.6.1 has caused me two kinds of problems, but I'm working around them and am able to use it:
1. I reported a problem in another thread with showing/hiding the DIA causing a soft reset;
2. I've got some problems with eReader reading the /books directory on the LD. Sometimes it reads and displays the list just fine; other times I get junk and the device will soft reset if I leave it on the Library screen.

That's about it for me right now. What apps are/are not causing other people problems?

peace,

Mike

So far, the two apps that give me soft resets are:

pssh v.2004-01-03
TuSSH v.B0.73

I'll have to check with the latest versions. Anybody know of a stable ssh client?

Even though LJP works- we cant press more than one button at a time. So most games can go in this list.

Has anyone been able to get Audible up and working OK? There's a thread over at Brighthand that points to some problems with it on the LD...

I have audible working-just activate the device thru the audible manager, then copy over your files you want to listen to in drive mode. I couldn't get it to sync like my other palms.

I think ALL PDAMills software is causing resets on the LifeDrive. I know Asia does and so have others reported. Anyone else tried any other Gamebox games?

HandyShopper 2.9b works but don't try to create a new database. It will crash.
