SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Okay, I bought an NEC 900c with wireless card and 4 GB CF drive. I want you to point me toward cool-ish computer programs that I need to own for the Ultimate Gamer's Palmptop (e.g., dice rollers, character gen programs, etc). I already have (and plan to install). . .

Solvelior (sp?) and Sage full 3.5 SRD
Campaign Sage 3.5 SRD database program

What else needs to get loaded  up?

I'm interested in hearing about this too.  I have a Palm Tungsten E (so nowhere near as good as the OP's).

Well, if it helps, the 900c itself is refurbished ;) On-topic, I know that a few posters here use their PDAs as gaming tools, so I was hoping to get some feedback as this is new territory for me.

I have only been able to find a couple of RPG programs for the palm that I really like (I should have bought a pocket PC :(  )

Gamer's Dice Roller (Freeware)
rolls from D4 to D100

Palm Mapping Program (Demo available otherwise $30)
