Converting from Palm to PPC--Software suggestions

[bgate]

Greetings!

Well, the new OS from Palm ( :cry: unimpressive) and the new PDA from Dell ( very impressive) have convinced me to join the PPC side of the fence. I have used my Palms for many things (and many years) and I figured some people here may have made the switch as well. I am asking for reccomendations on "software equivalents." Any insight would be wonderful.

Action Names/Agendus-->Agenda Fusion/Pockect Informant/or ???
MS Project program-->???
Secure Notepad-->eWallet or something like that?
Photo viewer-->???
Teal Auto/Kar Kare/Trip-->What's the best auto mileage and maintenance program?
Teal Doc-->Doc Reader (I know one is supplied, is it the best?)
Teal Paint-->Drawing program
Travel Tracker-->Program for someone who travels too much; flights, cars, hotel, etc.
Conversion Program-->???
RPN Calculator-->???
Back-up Program to SD or CF-->???
Security Program-->???
Great Games of caourse-->???

Any assistance would be appreciated. I am sure I will be here often asking for help and sharing my successes/failures.

Thanks,
Brent

if you prefer hunting freebies these are some of the sites:

http://www.ipaqsoft.net/

Also for freebies is PPCSG.com.

For games, I love Snails and PocketNES.

For image viewers, I either use PQView or Peter's Viewer.

All that I have listed is either free or a very functional demo. Of course, if you actually pay for software, you can head to Handango.

Also, keep your eyes open around this site as there are a lot of promotional offers just for Thoughts users, and even free software sometimes (if you're lucky).

Hmmm, PQView is on a 30 day evaluation. Not Reeeaaallly a very functional demo though. :?
