The 5 best Palm apps are here to help you perform single or even multiple tasks to streamline you in your life. Apps is a shortening of the word applications. These five best Palm apps are also all free, just like the old saying goes, "The best things in life are free!" So the next time you need some free apps for your trusty handheld Palm, don't waste money buying them--just go on their websites and download them.

  1. 3X Commander. This Palm app comes in at the number one spot because of its dedication to merging the best of both worlds, as in Palm operating systems along with Windows programs. Some of the benefits that this Palm app offers include high resolution as well as standard displays and a tabbed interface. Tabbed interfaces are particularly desirable because they make navigating through files easy as pie.
  2. Happy Days v2.37. Not the old TV series starring Ron Howard and Al's Diner, but the second best free app for your Palm. Happy Days v2.37 is ideal for you if you have a big group of family and friends. This Palm app makes it a cinch for you to keep track of all the important dates--such as birthdays and anniversaries--in the lives of your family members as well as your friends.
  3. Messenger v2.0. This Palm app belongs at number three because it is one app that allows you to be as tongue in cheek and sassy as you want to be. If you have ever been in a noisy or chaotic environment and wanted to tell people off, but were worried that your voice wasn't able to project strongly enough, then you can simply display a message on your Palm with this app that others can read.
  4. Palm PDF. The Palm PDF app is sitting pretty at number four because of the enormous wealth of possibilities that it frees up for you. With it, you are able to access and read native PDF files on most Palm operating system 5 devices. Whether you need to download documents from e-mails or customized skins or hyperlinks, this app has you covered.
  5. PalmBible+. PalmBible+ is an app that probably will be sought out by the religious-minded among consumers who use a Palm device. It makes reading your Bible easy with features like footnote support, dual version display, drag scrolling, highlighted bookmarks, and language translations. Strike the fear of God into your Palm device with this handy Bible reader.
