MyBible 4 Review for Palm OS

MyBible 4 Palm OS ReviewRecently, I moved from my Sony Ericsson’s P910i phone to the Xplore PDA Phone, I took a second look at Laridian’s Mybible 4 for Palm OS, a program which i did a review ages ago. How surprised I was that Mybible 4 is miles ahead of the older version. As I scanned through Laridian’s offerings, I decided to go for AT Roberston’s NT Word Pictures, New Bible Commentary and Tyndale’s Bible Dictionary as these modules will give me a good ‘study bible’ on the go. I must add that Mybible runs fast on the card; so do their add-on modules. For the christian, a good bible that you use all the time is so important. Not only to your IT lifestyle but to your faith as well. Use the one that is suits you best. I am looking at the Mybible 4 not just a tool to use, not even just a study bible but one that grows with me like a journal – making notes, highlighting stuff, linking it with my daily reading, Prayer Partner… a great investment of time and faith. It’s like the PC bible. First it was a novelty, then a tool; but now I cannot prepare a lesson or sermon without using it. I started with the Navigator’s Wordsearch program (in diskettes then) and later enjoyed the full Logos CD bible library a lot. I am still using the Navigator’s Lessonmaker with lots of add-ons (including Life Application bible) and currently using Swordsearcher for fast and easy search, cut and paste to my Power Point slides.

DualCor Portable PC is Core Duo, kind of

“This Portable PC from DualCor packs a pair of processors, but it’s not exactly Core Duo technology, and neither is its price. You’ll get a 1.5 GHz laptop chip to run Windows, in addition to a 400 MHz mobile processor. To conserve battery life, the Portable PC only makes use of one processor at a time.Despite its small stature, this device comes feature packed. The touchscreen display is an adequate 800 x 480 pixels, but if you want to make use of a bigger screen, the VGA port makes it easy. Other notable highlights include a pointer stick and 3 USB ports.Not a heck of a lot else is known about the DualCor Portable PC, but it seems to want to fit into a niche market right in between the ultra-portable Blackberry and the more powerful notebook computers. And with a price of a mere $1500 for this DualCor unit, that Origami project we’ve been hearing about might have to rework a few kinks.” via mobilemag.com
