It’s made with the awesome iziBasic / ViziBasic apps for Palm OS and is free to download, and in the download package are the vizi and izi source files too.
You can find it all here.

The old Palm Pilot, Palm OS and all that that implies.
Palm OS Pearltree

As you probably know I’ve been a big PDA / Palm OS fan for a long time. So I’ve started developing a way of navigating some of the remaining resources for anyone who is interested in this stuff. I’ll also be archiving and making files available where possible.
More Palm OS stuff available
You might not have noticed that there’s some more ancient Palm OS stuff available here. I will be adding more zipped files with old apps that are disappearing from anywhere else on the internet, although I’m not sure that anyone will actually these want anyway.
New section on hard to find Palm OS music apps added
Of interest to very few people I know, but even so I’ve decided to put it up here in case anyone is desperate for these things. It seems that now I’ve started to look for these things I keep remembering and finding more things that I think would be useful for this section.
So I’ll add more as a little archive of Palm OS music making history.
New Toy, sort of
I’ve thought about getting a Tapwave Zodiac for a long time, but never bothered, but I saw this one on eBay, and even though it didn’t have a cradle or cable for charging I decided to go for it, and for £4 (just over) it’s not bad going.
Having said that, I thought I could pick up a charger or cradle quite easily. Sadly, that hasn’t been the case so far, but I’m on the look out. Until then it’ll sit around sadly doing nothing until I can get it up and running again.
A couple of things for Bhajis users
If you don’t use Bhajis Loops then please ignore this. For a long time I’ve had these two additional Bhajis Loops effects plug ins which I think are the only two ever made which weren’t created by Olivier. Anyway, the site they were on has gone now, but I thought I’d make them available for anyone who is using Bhajis Loops still.
You can find them here.
Palm DOSBox
I found this from one of the very early posts on Palm Sounds and after a bit of searching around I found a PRC file for it (that’s a Palm OS executable file). So I’m going to give it a go and see what can be done with it. That’s if it works at all.
Why is there a baby hedgehog in this PDA?
And more to the point, what does it do? Good question. Well it was a demo app from what was to be a replacement OS for the Palm PDA. Sadly it never came to anything, but I still have the demo apps/applets that were around and every now and then I get one of them going to try and remember what it is that they actually do.
Baby hedgehog is a lot like that. Every time I come to use it I can’t really remember what it is that is does.
I still wish that there had been a replacement OS for Palm which was just for music, but that’s never going to happen now sadly. But if you want to know more about Capers, look here.
The TRG Pro all lit up
I’d all but forgotten that these older PDAs could do this.
Time to revisit some old projects again: Palm OS4 music PDA
When looking back at the Capers applets I found details of this project I wrote about at Palm Sounds in 2006, and it made me wonder if I should give it another go, and that means I probably will.
I’m not sure if I’ll use the same PDA, the clie T425. I might use something different. We’ll see.
