Palm News Sites
Here are a list of the better Palm news and informational sites:
 |
| Our very own, local, Palm website! SPUG stands for Singapore Palm Users Group. The webmaster (or "webmeister" as he likes to call himself) updates this site like every 5 minutes! Hehehe! Here you can find practically all kinds of news and events, and the unique thing is of course, events that pertain to us here in Singapore. Sometimes it beats me how he gets wind of the latest breaking news way before even most US sites have it, even if the piece of news is coming FROM there! |
 |
| Another locally-maintained Palm news website. Has pretty much updated news, but not as much as SPUG has in depth and content. Overall still a pretty good site to visit. |
 |
| This is the site I simply must visit at least once a day. I even have this site synced via Avantgo (more on that later) so that I won't miss out on any Palm related news and events wherever I go. This site has got to be just about the most updated site out there other than our very own SPUG site. It has reviews, commentaries, forums and even a section called The Palm Graveyard, where people pay tribute to their dead Palms. |
 |
| This is also a very good and updated site with lots of news about PDAs and Palms in particular. I also sync this via Avantgo daily to keep up with the news. |
 |
| Ah yes.. Avantgo. If you bought your Palm in early to mid-2000, then you probably would have this icon appearing on your Palms. For those of us older birds, we had to get this on our own. What does it do? Simple. It has "channels" (websites) that you can define, or you can even make your own channels, and it will synchronise them for you whenever you do a Hotsync®. This site even has a custom-channel wizard which will help you make you own channel, so that you can keep tabs on a site that is not listed on Avantgo as a "channel". During my reservist, guess how I managed to read the Straits Times everyday, even though I'm out there in the jungle crawling around? :) |
