- lxgr 6y agoAh, that brings back memories. Didn't Palm OS have something similar? I think it was Plucker [1], but I'm not too sure. [1]
- reaperducer 6y agoYep. With Plucker, I could download the New York Times web site (I think via RSS) before I went to work, sync it to my Palm Pilot, and then read it on my lunch.
- vmlinuz 6y agoMany, many years ago, I used a custom build of Plucker to build an offline reader for the schedule of a large conference in the UK - to the point of rebuilding the schduule file daily to include updates, and using an old laptop with an irda port running pilot-link in a loop to sync the new schedule to anyone who wanted it... That was fun.
