PLEASE NOTE
.
I know that most of my software is not working properly under OS higher than 3.0!!

Please be also careful using my software on any Visor!! Even if the Visor comes with OS 3.1, the Visor OS is NOT the same than the 3.1 of a Palm. Especially hacks have a hard time with the Visor, since Handspring implemented already a kind of 'Hackmaster' to handle the Springmodules!!!

  • EcoHack v 2.2 is not working at all, don't use it!!! The sad story is, that I can't just 'tweak' it a bit, I have to rework it totally for the new EZ CPU.
  • Battery Monitor v1.7 is working, however you need for all OS3.1 devices the new BMHack v1.6x. Please be aware, that for the PalmV with its LiIon battery, BM has no chance to see whether you're 'recharging' it while hotsyncing for example. So the oracle function won't work in that case. From OS3.3 on, BMHack misses the OFF event, so it won't show any reasonable values.
  • VoltageControl v3.2 seems to work, but it *doesn't*!!! I tested it briefly, and it seems that no warnings at all are occuring!!! I'll have to check that too - please deactivate VC for now. However, the lowest, most important warning is emitted - how good I never touched it with Voltage Conrol :)
Please allow me a very personal word about the progress of updating my apps:
.
I know I promised to update my applications. I'm very uphappy about the current situation and for times, I even thought about, to stop all my activities for PalmOS. But then, I still have alot of fun with it, I just don't have the time in the moment. I started a large project in Spring 99 that still keeps me busy every day, BTW a project for the Palm world :). Fact is, that this project is part of my future and it can feed me, coding cool shareware can't, unfortunately! I even stopped other things I'd just love to finsh, like my logger for the Pilot. I invested already a considerable amout of time and money in it, but even my beloved logger has to wait - I just had to set priorities! In the moment - June 2001 - I have really no idea whether and if when I'll find the time to update my apps. Another problem is, that some of them are hard to update anyway. Since the PalmOS world changed quite a bit and tons of PalmOS devices are on the market meanwhile, an app like Battery Monitor for example would be a mega project. Don't forget that the nice results of Battery Monitor came from single consumption tables for each Palm device it supported. Testing each PalmOS device is - apart from having access to all of them - a full time job I can't do in the moment.

Thanks again for your great patience!
