Hi,

don't feel too bad, i am still using Palm TX + DateBk 5. & Palm Desktop 
6.2.2 (on Win.7 64 bit Asus motherboard Intel processor).

i also did try to Pimlical. but it kept crashing (on Galaxy S3) & it was 
way to much time. after 2 weeks & i spent like 1-2 hours/day + a lot of 
eye strain (font too small & colors are not subtle enough), i gave up.

the thing is supposed to save me time. i dont' remember having so much 
trouble migrating between one Palm PDA to another one. (Palm TX is was 
my 5th Palm PDA)

i should probably try again. as most people seem to like it, when i get 
time. as i paid for it.

(strange thing is i have never developed an "emotional" attachment with 
any of my Android devices like i have had w/ Palm. to me Android is just 
a convenient conduit. LOL)

if by the time Palm expires & i still have not made Pimlical work, i'd 
likely switch back to paper. easier & cheaper.

best regards,

pam

(I've hard the Windows 8 touch screen stuff is not so good yet) And what about the 32/64 bit issue?  I haven't gone shopping yet to see what's out there but before I do, I'd still like to be able to run these on what ever I get.

I have Pimlical D on my desktop too and it was nice for a while . . . but I have to re-install an updateed version.  Just fyi.  I sure whish we had DateBk6 on the new platforms - gee - have seen that wish before !  Thanks again!  Deb
