I was able to download it just by clicking the download link next to "click here to register". No registration necessary.

Unfortunately, the readme states a 64MB RAM minimum for install.

AND you apparently need Westtek ClearVue Viewers in order to print from Pocket Word or Excel...which costs $23.95.

I'm still going to try it on my e310....but if it won't support Word or Excel wihtout purchasing ClearVue it's not much use as a free download

Default Hmmm...

I am printing from my IPAQ 3635, right now. It takes up a lot of memory, but did not try installing on a storage card. Any one try that yet ?

Okay.
Just printed a test page and a Pocket Word Document.
For some reason, they make it seem as though you need ClearVue to print Word documents. I think (from the little I read of the Help) that its only required if you want to print Excel docs.

OK - in the TextMaker thread I suggested that TextMaker docs could be saved in Word for Windows format and then opened in ClearVue in order to print via this HP software. Possibly a little complicated but - I tried it and it works - tables, pictures, text formating, the works! If you have all three bits of software it really isn't as much hassle as it sounds...!

I don't see that big of an impact on my memory...27mb total when not running it and 25-26mb free while running it.

Also, is does suppoert Pocket Word, just not Excel.
