Writer's Block

:confused: :confused: :confused:
I'm an aspiring writer, and since I have a rather interesting problem, I was wondering if someone could help me out.
I recently purchased a Palm Pilot Zire on ebay for about $30 less than it would have costed to get it at a store. My main reason for purchasing one was so that I could write on the go. I know that I could use paper, but I can only write my short stories and poems onpaper. The novel I am trying to write at the moment gets worse and worse if I try to write it on paper.
My friend has a Palm Pilot VII, and it drives her insane to have to make about thirty memos to finish a single chapter in her story (we are both aspiring writers). I, being the computer savvy one, decided that I would look around on the internet to see if I could download a word processing program that could easily transfer the stories from my Palm Pilot to my computer's Microsoft Word.
The requierments that I would have for this program would be:
1. Able to handle relatively large amounts of data without crashing.
2. Able to make text bold, underlined, or italiczied (could care less about the first two, the this a MUST!)
3. Ability to make indents in the document.
4. Of course, easy to use!
Does such a program exsist? Please post and let me know!
