Hi PPC-ers,

I'm looking for a currency converter program to work with most of the world currencies.

It should be possible to update the currencies over the net, without the tiring manual entries.

Is something available....? Preferably freeware.

Thanks,

iPAQBjorn :?

I know of none that provide for automatically downloading the current exchange rates but there are a large number where you can enter the info manually.

One of them that looks nice is EasyCurrency (http://www.geocities.com/hansjkr/).

YES, WorldMate (http://www.pocketgear.com/software_detail.asp?id=3335) does what he wants but it also costs $24.99 and he was looking for a FREEWARE solution.

In any case, it fits the bill if he is willing to pay the price.

Another non-free program is Burr Oak's Conversions in Hand ($18.99)

Are you signed up with AvantGo? If you are, do a channel search for Currency Converter. youll find this neat little channel called iCurrency.net Exchange Rates. It hasd exchange rates to the U.S. dollar for every country you can imagine, and obviously since it's AvantGo, it's free! And if you arent signed up for avantgo, well I like it. And I like the channel. It's perfect and does not have any manual entry. You just find the country youre looking for (they're in alphabetical order) and there ya go.
