I bought my Palm specificially to use on trips and I'm delighted with it. I
use Gedstar (formerly GedPalm) to maintain my database on the Palm via a
Gedcom export from TMG. I also have various Word documents and Excel
spreadsheeets exported to the Palm. A major bonus is not having to print
out updated pages of information before heading for the archives.
