It's the latest entry in a category of applications that can be best described as &ldquo;A Business Traveler's Best Friend.&rdquo; They are typically applications used by those that travel frequently, and while most do not include foreign language translation components, software of this type is tremendously helpful for anyone dealing with different time zones, airplane flights, currencies, and unit conversions&quot;</em></p><p><img alt="" border="1" src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com//spt/auto/1213122103.usr7.png" /></p><p>Some guy named Jason Dunn&nbsp;has written up a fairly complete overview of Spb Traveler on Microsoft's Windows Mobile site as a tips &amp; tricks article. Traveler is one of those products that can help put everything a frequent, well, traveler needs in order to make their trip a bit less annoying and hopefully a bit more enjoyable. Sorta like the type of software I keep thinking I should invest in, even though I only travel&nbsp;4-5 times per year (Which is probably enough to justify it, given its&nbsp;features!).&nbsp;And from what I hear, this Jason guy who wrote the piece is pretty knowledgeable on travel - seems he's always going one place or another and reporting back :-)</p>

Like all of SPB Software House's products, this is an incredible piece of software. What I've found especially useful is the time zone calculator. I organize and manage meetings and focus groups around the world, and Traveler has been GREAT for making sure I've got the times right, particularly in areas that have "half-hour time zones" like India.
