		<title><![CDATA[ TouchLauncher 1.2.1 - Make your Palm look like an iPhone ]]></title>
		<link>http://touchlauncher.en.softonic.com/palm</link>
		<description>
				<![CDATA[
				<img src="http://static.sftcdn.net/en/scrn/71000/71149/2_TouchLauncher_4.jpg" border="0" align="right" />
					<p>We're always being told that Palm is now pretty much a dead platform but if you're still using one of these devices you needn't worry too much that you're falling behind the times because there are plenty of ways to customize your handset to freshen it up a bit.</p>
<p>TouchLauncher provides you with the power to transform your Palm to resemble something far more modern and cutting-edge, namely, the iPhone. In order to start skinning your OS you'll need to install the application file and the iFone icon set, both of which come bundled together in the same Zip.</p>
<p>Before you launch the app you get the chance to scan the memory of your PDA in order to automatically add icons of applications into TouchLauncher and remove deleted applications from the program. Once you finally get the program running you'll be staggered by the quality of icons in this pack, which are remarkable faithful to the Apple device. In fact, it left me wondering how Steve Jobs would react if he clapped eyes on TouchLauncher (no doubt a phone call to his lawyer would be foremost in his mind.)</p>
<p>The software is highly customizable and you can not only select icons for individual for each each of your installed applications from your icon sets, but also to categorize and change the name that appears underneath each utility of icon. Make sure you have plenty of RAM allocated on your device though, because TouchLauncher is a bit of a memory-hogger.</p>
<p><b>If you're fed up with your mates mocking your Palm then TouchLauncher provides a great way to turn their sneers into gasps.</b></p>

		<title><![CDATA[ ZLauncher 5.45 - Excellent desktop program and application/storage manager ]]></title>
		<link>http://zlauncher.en.softonic.com/palm</link>
		<description>
				<![CDATA[
				<img src="http://static.sftcdn.net/en/scrn/26000/26764/2_26764.jpg" border="0" align="right" />
					<p>ZLauncher is one of a wide range of launcher applications, designed to help you manage your Palm PDA and launch its applications from a simpler and more user friendly interface. What makes ZLauncher special in its class is the variety of extra tools and features it brings to your Palm’s desktop.</p>
<p>The first feature to really impress in ZLauncher is its ability to launch programs from a storage card. This function allows you to move your applications to an external card and run them from there, even if they were originally installed to your device’s built-in memory. The logic of moving and running applications in this way is that by freeing up space on your Palm’s internal memory, you have more RAM free, thus helping your programs run faster and more efficiently.</p>
<p>The file explorer aspect of ZLauncher is a massive improvement on the native Palm file manager, providing features such as ‘tabbed’ browsing (allowing you to view multiple storage devices or folders in one window), and the ‘detail’ view mode which is reminiscent of Windows Explorer’s ‘details’ option and displays data on your files (size, date modified etc) alongside the filenames.. The addition of the Trash Bin (very similar to the Windows Recycle Bin) is a welcome improvement, as is ZLauncher’s ability to delete entire folder trees, an option curiously absent from some other launcher applications.</p>
<p>ZLauncher includes a themes option, allowing you to skin the program interface, customise icon sets and set pretty much any image as your device’s wallpaper. After changing icon sets, however, we noted a marked increase in ZLauncher’s memory consumption as well as various issues with icons appearing and disappearing. While the customization feature is a good idea, it seems that by using it you significantly increase the load on your Palm device. This is a shame but at the end of the day, themes and icons aren’t deal breakers in an application specifically designed to help you launch applications and manage your files.</p>
<p>In all, ZLauncher adds some seriously useful functions to your Palm’s desktop. While its memory load and customization options need some improvement, ZLauncher’s core features make it the best all round choice in its class.</p>

		<title><![CDATA[ iPhoneImitation 1.2 D - Turn your Palm into an iPhone! ]]></title>
		<link>http://iphoneimitation.en.softonic.com/palm</link>
		<description>
				<![CDATA[
				<img src="http://static.sftcdn.net/en/scrn/69000/69505/2_iphoneImitation_1.jpg" border="0" align="right" />
					<p>We'd all love to have an iPhone but unfortunately not all of us have the cash to stump up for one. Don't worry though, because if you've got a Palm device you can at least pretend to have one of Apple's great inventions.</p>
<p>You might think that the Palm OS is a little antiquated now and to some degree you'd be right, but using iPhoneImitation you can disguise that fact with an interface that is remarkably true to Apple's new wonder device.</p>
<p>Once installed, the program embeds itself on your device and can be launched with an icon. The alternative Startup screen looks very similar to the iPhone, with some lovely animation. In fact all of the menu items are animated with a series of plush icons that replace the rather drab default Palm ones.</p>
<p>Another added bonus in this software package is the Pocket Tunes skin that adds iPod Touch-style control buttons to the MP3 player. It all looks very nice, but be warned that it does have a tendancy to drain battery power so I'd be wary about setting the program as your default launcher.</p>
<p><b>Nevertheless, this software provides a realistic simulation of the iPhone on your Palm.</b></p>

				<img src="http://static.sftcdn.net/en/scrn/35000/35285/2_gesskin1.jpg" border="0" align="right" />
					<p>ClieSkinner is an instant virtual graffiti and statusbar skin loader for NR, NX, NZ, TH and UX model Clies. Completely free with free source code (BSD license)!</p>
<p>Includes many features, such as:</p>
<h3>Instant loading</h3>
<p class="indented">No reset is needed to load new skins--you see them instantly! (A reset is needed when ClieSkinner is installed, de-installed, or its 16-bit setting is changed.)</p>
<h3>Support Landscape utility</h3>
<p class="indented">On an NX/NZ/TH with Mobile-Stream's excellent Landscape utility, you can load specially designed rotated skins for different screen orientations, and the skins will switch instantly as the screen rotates. (See readme.html for instructions.)</p>
<h3>16-bit support</h3>
<p class="indented">Graffiti and statusbar skins used to be 8-bit which resulted in low quality, especially for photo skins. Now graffiti and statusbar skins can be in brilliant full 16-bit color. (Only in full version and in shareware version in trial period.)</p>
<h3>Cross-loading</h3>
<p class="indented">Load NR skins on NX, NZ and TH models. Load NX/NZ/TH skins on NR models. (Not available on UX because of different arrangement of graffiti and statusbar areas.) This includes features to automatically generate resources that your model needs but that the original skin may lack, like CF icons when loading an NX60 skin on an NX80 model.</p>
<h3>Memory stick support</h3>
<p class="indented">Save memory by storing all your skins except the currently loaded data on a memory stick, compact flash card or UX internal media storage. Move all your skins at once there. (Only in full version and in shareware version in trial period.)</p>
