Q: I want to know is how or when you use the Stylus program in writing it will not change the version typing.If any version you can do with this I know that I've seen it before. I would like to remove all primary notetaking of loose paper and notebooks all ... please help!

A: WHAT?

The Zire PDA series has Grafitti software "built in" and does what you want.

Granted you have to learn the strokes, however, they are very intuitive and easy to learn. Once you get the hang of it you can "write" very quickly and use it to take notes.

Once you have the notes in "Memo" or other Palm form, you can sync with the computer and work on it some more.

Or you can beam the "Memo" to another device and work on it further.

Good luck.......

Q: I have an old Minolta (SRT 101), and I was wondering if I would ever have use for my old palm (Zire 71). The Palm has a camera, and I was wondering if there were any programs available to turn my palm into a working light meter, something sophisticated enough to tell me speeds and stop values I need. Heard of anything like that?

A: closest project I heard of was an app that turned their Zire 71 into a video recorder as well (altho it wasn't very good, it was able to capture stuff good enough).

I've used the z71 camera alot bef I upgraded to a Tungsten T3 (took a lot LESS pictures since it had no camera builtin). It wasn't bad provided you kept the thing as still as possible and had good exposure to light, but it got pretty bad in low light situations. I don't believe a lens that can't pick up much in low light environments would make for a very good light meter.
