Last October I purchased a Sony Clie 320; unfortunately, one month ago I slammed into a table and crushed the screen. I now realize the blessing that was. My Axim is due to arrive December 19 (or sooner!). My only concern is freeware programs (since I really don't have much money to blow). I realize that there is another topic on this subject, but if you would just list your top 5 favorite freeware programs, you would make a future PPC owner very happy! :D
