What
palm applications did you write?
- J-OS: add-on type Japanese OS for PalmOS. In Feb 99, 3Com released
official Japanese version of PalmOS 3.1 and IBM Japan released WorkPad with
Japanese PalmOS. Before then, all Japanese users were using English Palm
with my J-OS. Some users are still using J-OS with their Palm V, Palm IIIx,
Palm IIIe etc.
- PiloKey: Worlds first keyboard driver for PalmOS.
- WorldFinder: Worlds first web browser for PalmOS - I’m not upgrading it
though :)
- DA Launcher: Launcher of small applet. I call it DA(Desk Accessory).
Do you plan to make any applications that use the new springboard?
Not yet, but I’m inspecting the possibility of the Springboard architecture.
Do you have any other comments about the Visor?
The Springboard and supporting software is really cool. It redefines
"Plug & Play". I’m very eager to see many Springboard modules and
also want to make a nice module myself.
