Zip file support

[Philj6969]

Hi all,

I am new to the palm world, trading in both of my pocket pc's via ebay to get an Ique. (I am an old hand with Garmin though)
I have had a good look on the net but have not been able to answer my query; is there a program that can deal with zipped files on the palm? I would like to be able to zip up a load of ebooks on my pc, transfer them to my Ique then extract/unzip them while away. This is no problem with the pocketpc.

Cheers,

Phil.

HandZipper (http://www.handwatch.com/handwatch/fetch.php3?form_sec_name=PalmHandZipper) will do what you're looking for.

One thing to remember is that the e-books on Palm (such as for palmreader) are already compressed. Zipping them only save about ~5%.
