Thread Name: Folk Songs on Pocket PC E-books
Subject: RE: Folk Songs on Pocket PC E-books
I've got an HP JORNADO 520 with 15mb on board and a 128mb CompactFlash expansion card. I have the words of nearly 200 songs (Pocket Word) plus an Excel database of Keys, Starting Notes etc. I've also downloaded an excellent MIDI file player and have quite a collection of tunes for it.

Unless a version of AskSam is available for Pocket Windows, I don't think it would be possible to load the DT onto a PDA - Susan's Libretto is a tiny, but standard PC running normal windows rather than CE.

It's easy enough to copy/paste lyrics from DT or elsewhere into WORD documents and tranfer these to your PDA, though. For those people with PALM OS, WORDSMITH is a very nice little WP program that even has an MS WORD add-on to allow you to transfer documents from your main PC.

I even use my JORNADO with my NOKIA 6210 to get onto MUDCAT sometimes !
