Now a Universal binary, PorDiBle 3.3 is an application to convert between text documents and Palm DOC files. Text files can be dropped onto PorDiBle and will be converted to a compressed .pdb file which can be read by any one of a myriad of Palm ebook readers, such as SmartDoc, TealDoc and iSilo. Conversely, dropping a DOC .pdb onto PorDiBle will convert back to a text file. PorDiBle can also convert HTML to DOC, albeit by stripping all tags in the process.

From pruss: "I am happy to finally release version 1.00 of my free open source backup solution for NVFS-based Palms (T5, TX, LifeDrive, TE2, Treo 650). This should in theory be a more reliable backup because it directly accesses the files in the hidden drive where they are stored, instead of fetching data from RAM." Discussion is ongoing. NVBackup is available at Sourceforge
