Most used app?

[coder_joe]

Here's a crazy idea. Tell us what your most used application is on the iQue besides the GPS funtions? Some of us n00bies would like to add more functionality to justify our GPS lovin madness.

I use the Hearts game from leosolutions.com the most, but that's me, work, work work.

Besides Launcher X? (http://www.launcherx.com/) I guess it would be BackupMan. (http://bitsnbolts.com/)

Next it would be Pocket Quicken (http://www.landware.com/pocketquicken/)

[reinbeau]

Datebk5 (http://www.pimlicosoftware.com/datebk5.htm) is the most used (and useful) program on my iQue, I couldn't keep track of my days without it.

HandyShopper (http://www.palmgear.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=software.showsoftware&SID=370BE358-7E95-2C2B-723ED8DF66E6383F&PartnerREF=&prodID=1350) is probably the second most used program on my iQue outside of the GPS stuff....and it's free.

There are so many, many more I can't even think of them. Look for software threads here on the forum for more tips.

AgendusPro

So many to list. in the general apps catagory, I use Documents to Go, Avantgo, and AgendusPro most frequntly. My favorite game is Billiards though lately I've been playing a really fun tank game called Scorched Palm (anyone remember Scorched Earth for the PC? Basically a port of it). For 3rd party GPS apps, CetusGPS and Cachemate receive the most use. For utilities, the top two apps are Filez and Uninstall Manager.

[Last Mrk]

Of course more recently it's JMckie's second aka "Home."

[rocket666]

Isilox/Isilo

the pair, x gets daily downloads from internet on pc of favorite newspapers, internet columns etc. First hotsync each morning loads the ique. It works quite well with the ique, full screen, hi-res, font builder, etc.

Does the reset hole qualify?

You know, there are programs now that can reset it for you :D

[apersson850]

So there we have yet another idea for an application: The application logger!

Myself, I use DateBK5, Excel (Docs to Go), the address book and AvantGo.

[stephanpls]

Apart from the GPS functions I use Planetarium extensively. As an amateur astronomer I used to take a paper map of the sky and an ephemeris book every time I went on holiday. Now I have the iQue with Planetarium, it's a wonder!!
Especially if I go to (deep) southern latitudes, where the night sky is quite unfamiliar to me, Planetarium is extremely useful.

I have a reputation for hosing memory so badly, that no software works - at all!

[ezjeeper]

Do Speed and QBuddy count as GPS apps? Probably so, but I use QBuddy all the time. It is so much easier to read my speed on there than the little bitty kph on my dash.

Otherwise, probably Ultrasoft Pocket Money, Megacalc, Date Book 5 (I'm with Ann, I'd be lost without it), and Eurocalc.

I use Megacalc constantly to convert standard to metric and vice versa.

I track all my expenditures in Money and then hotsync it. No more checkbook register for me! And it works with both my American and German accounts seamlessly.

Eurocalc is a free little app that works wonderfully at doing dollar to Euro convert. I have to manually enter the ridiculous on base rip-off conversion rate every day, but it is very handy.

I used to use a nifty application called AddressUno (got from Tucows). It allows the user to sort out names in address book by First name and Last name, amongs other things.
The only problem I have here is after it has sorted out all addresses, the standard/normal contacts listing is all jumbled. As iQue allocates coordinates to the standard address book this is a bit of a problem.

Don't suppose Palm will ever update their software to allow us to sort by Firstname as well.

[Sho-Bud]

Isilo and Agendus

[Bokkie]

When I'm not doing anything it has to be MegaClock.

[JMckie]

Counting only programs that I explicitly launch and spend a lot of time in, it has to be Palmreader first, iSilo second.

Least used app: Hunt & Fish

As far as the app logger, all one has to do is register for sysNotifyAppLaunchingEvent, and update a database of apps by incrementing the use count. A practical application is recognizing apps you never use anymore which helps you decide in deleting them.

[apersson850]

When will it be ready?:)

Palmreader Pro is my #1 app, then it's a toss up between APCalc, several games, Que find (address for my wife who does flower deliveries part time), and the other Que apps.

[ExxoStang]

Palm Reader is the app I most use outside the Navigation functions

Paul

[Tyro]

You people scare me!
Aside from the GPS, I use the built in Date Book and Contacts.

[mavic-zap]

Tyro, you’re not alone, after GPS it would be, in order of use:
Date book, Contacts, Docs to Go, Calc and Pocket Tunes.
I use all this constantly, but most are the built in apps, its only Docs to Go and pocket tunes I found useful enough to pay extra for. JMckie’s stuff is also worth paying for, but luckly its free :D :D

I have a lot of the other stuff loaded, but only use them occasionally.

[wa4phy]

I didn't see anyone list my favorite and probably most used... Automobil. Probably the handiest thing I've had since grits :-) Behind that, either the memo pad or datebook with the alarms. I'm getting terrible about remembering what time I'm supposed to do something or be somewhere, and it certainly fills the bill for a getting-senile old goat like me ... The other very useful, but less used application I guess would have to be the address book and chmod. I've even gotten where I forget how to set the sticky bit on the server .. senility ain't what it's cracked up to be!

Sam

[JMckie]

Hey Bokkie, are you listening? Some automobil functionality would be a good match for your Trip app.
http://store.yahoo.com/pilotgearsw/automobil.html

[FreeBird]

For me it's:

AgendusPro
LauncherX
DocumentsToGo
MobiPocket Reader
SmartListToGo
PasswordsPlus
NoviiRemote (best prog to control all your consumer electronic devices)
FileZ
Power48 (best emulation of the famous HP RPN calculators)
Legacy (IMHO the best RPG available for Palm devices)

[ElectroQTed]

CacheMate
Docs to Go
Bookworm

It's an okay exercise log by normsoft (best for either cycling or running) that will be great if they ever come out with the promised next version.

See? Gadget geeks do get out once in a while. :)
