#PalmOS fan who pretty much loves #retrocomputing, #Symbian and #WindowsMobile and more! Working on archiving old stuff.

Finally continuing my work on making a curated Palm OS collection with screenshots, metadata and more.

I'm also collecting more versions because some originally supported e.g. Palm OS 3.x, but versions crept up over time.

It's slow work, but my goal is to share this so people can use it. All I need is perhaps a little encouragement every once in a while 😅

🚀 StarGrid has launched! A brand-new Palm OS strategy game in 2025 🎮

Hex grid, space battles, flags to capture or opponents to destroy — play on a real Palm device or in your browser: https://quarters.captaintouch.com/captainsstargrid.html

Made from scratch, no engines, just old-school Palm coding challenges and fully open source! ✅

Keep Palm OS alive, one game at a time! 🌌

Here is a fun thing I got to work: CloudPilot doing a network HotSync via a proxy server to a modern sync client running on Linux (palm-sync, written in TypeScript, which makes writing new custom Conduits a ton easier!).

The urge to now port this to Go and write a little Evolution → Palm sync client ... and maybe some new palmOS apps for syncing e.g. Fediverse (like https://gitub.com/knickish/heffalump by @knickish) and Matrix chats to it!

My Handspring Visor now has a 56k modem Springboard on its way :)

My #Palm Tungsten T5 running #PalmOS5 with some cool apps and games. Also makes for a pretty solid productivity powerhouse to this day using HandyShopper, Pennovate Notes, DocsToGo and SmartListToGo. Without intrusive notifications, should I add 🙂 #PalmOSRules #PalmOSCommunity #PDA
Hello world, I'm Zire31 and I like retro phones and PDAs. I'm also working on some projects that may be interesting to some of you that also like niche stuff like that 😁❤️
