Thanks for trying PalmCalc.  The demo is a fully functional version except that

full version at PalmPilot Gear H.Q. (http://www2.viaweb.com/pilotgearsw/palmcalc.html, 
Phone: 817-461-3480, Fax: 817-461-3482) for $19.95.  

What is PalmCalc?
----------------
PalmCalc is an RPN scientific and financial calculator for the 3COM PalmPilot and 
Palm III family of PDA's. The calculator supports 25 scientific functions, 5 financial 
functions, 4 statistical functions, and has 20 memory registers (two banks of 10 each).

System Requirements
-------------------
PalmCalc requires Palm OS 2.0 or higher, and 34K of RAM (88K including MathLib).

Installation
------------
To install PalmCalc, simply unzip the archive you downloaded and use the install 
tool (or equivalent) to install both palmcalcdemo.prc and MathLib.prc on your Palm 
Pilot or Palm III. You might also consider assigning the calculator button to bring 
up PalmCalc instead of the default calculator after syncing.

PalmCalc requires MathLib.prc to be installed on the Palm Pilot. If you already 
have MathLib installed on your Palm Pilot from some other program you don't need to 
install it again. MathLib is not part of PalmCalc. MathLib is a free shared library 
that can be used by any OS 2.0 Pilot program that needs IEEE 754 double precision 
math functions. It's distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License, 
and is freely available with full source code and documentation at the MathLib 
Information web page (http://www.probe.net/~rhuebner/mathlib.html). It is not a part 
of PalmCalc, and you're not paying anything for its use; a copy is simply included
in the archive for your convenience. 

The Documentation
-----------------
The documentation can be read by opening the file palmcalc.htm in a web browser
like Netscape or Internet Explorer.  If the images do not show up in the document,
make sure that all of the .gif files are in a directory called "images" that is
in the same directory as palmcalc.htm itself.

Legal Stuff
------------
PalmCalc makes no warranty whatsoever, either implied or expressed, as to the correct
functioning of this software. When using this software, the user assumes all 
responsibility for any damages caused, directly or indirectly, by its use.
