I guess I can finally get organized... (and possibly even help AMC with their "Oppenheimer" IMAX projections 😂👉https://www.theverge.com/23801118/imax-movie-palm-pilot-oppenheimer ) #palm #palmpilot #palmos #pda
Palm OS emulators in theaters!

IMAX emulates PalmPilot software to power Oppenheimer’s 70 mm release | @johnassel #palm #palmos https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2023/07/imax-emulates-palmpilot-software-to-power-oppenheimers-70-mm-release/
@djohngo @ApproachingSteed Same here. My Palm III is still working (and btw running on AAA batteries). (this is the cool one which came with a barcode scanner 😎, a #SymbolSPT1500). #PalmOS
IMAX Projector's reel units historically used a #PalmOS device as their control unit. This has never been changed because its easier just to emulate a Palm device than to built a new control system from the ground up. #Oppenheimer #AccidentalRetroComputing

If it's not broken, don't fix it.

This was surprisingly tricky to set up on a modern computer:
• Windows needs to be 32-bit because the Eudora conduit is packaged inside a 16-bit installer. Windows 10 needs some extra support files to run 16-bit apps, so I installed Windows 7 in a VM.
• Internet Explorer doesn't work anymore, so had to copy the Firefox installer into my VM's hard drive in order to download Palm Desktop, drivers, updates, etc.
• Outlook needs to be new enough to run CalDAV Synchronizer: https://caldavsynchronizer.org to import my NextCloud contacts / calendar
• Outlook also needs to be old enough to sync with HotSync and the Eudora conduit. Office 2007 is the minimum version that meets both requirements.
• HotSync and Outlook both need to be running in Windows XP compatibility mode in order for them to talk to each other and transfer data
• HotSync.exe needs to run as administrator, as it tries to write all the backups/sync data into Program Files instead of the user directory.
• Outlook.exe also has to run as administrator, otherwise HotSync wont communicate with it while running as administrator
• My USB-serial adapter needs drivers on older versions of Windows. They were nice enough to include them on a CD, but none of my computers have an optical drive anymore. Downloaded them from the manufacturer's website with Firefox.
• CalDAV Synchronizer requires a recent version of .NET to run, so I had to get Windows Update working with Legacy Update by @kirb: https://legacyupdate.net/
The HotSync conduit update for Outlook 2007 is very difficult to find, luckily there's an archived copy here: https://www.palmdr.com/important-links. There are unofficial patches for 2010 and 2013 here: http://pizzaboy192.com/download/ but I'm using 2007 with the official update from Palm.

This Handspring Visor Pro didn't come with a sync cradle, so rather than buying one, I decided to modernize it a little bit. I used an Adafruit USB-C breakout board, and some not-so-great Dremel work, to add a USB-C port on the side. It's only wired for USB right now, but since it has 8 contacts, I may be able to use the remaining contacts to connect with serial over a USB cable. I have a few ideas for that...

Regarding the elephant in the room text entry, since I'm an old Palm OS user, one decent solution might be a finger-tracked version of Palm (Access) Graffiti / Graffiti 2 (based on Jot). I was pretty good at it with a stylus. Using a finger would most likely be even faster _____👇

Bought something I really wanted when I was a kid: a classic #Palm #PDA. This one is Palm IIIx, released in 1999. It's powered by the Motorola DragonBall EZ processor running the 68000 instruction set at blistering 16 megahertz, served by whopping 4 megabytes of RAM. It runs off two AAA batteries which can last up to a month or two. The monochrome UI is controlled by a stylus, and it uses a simple handwriting system called Graffiti.

Strange. In the 1990s, I recognized many occurrences of some yearly recurring birthday appointments in electronic calendars (at the time on #PalmOS) that were preponed by one day.
I always thought that it was a side-effect of the #timezone shifts in central Europe twice a year. But it still happens today occasionally, even in times of #NextCloud and #DAVx4.
Did you also observe annoying things like this?
