Filez 5.21 (pictured above) is an easy to use file manager for the Palm OS. Use it to remove, beam, or modify any file on your handheld. It's useful for removing old programs/databases and for telling some files to back themselves up. It supports memory cards (if your Palm has that feature, mine doesn't). Filez is also handy for checking up on the amount of free memory you have left, and the condition of your battery. Download the latest version at NoSleep.Net. GAMES I didn't get a Palm so I could play games, but everyone needs a few games for those boring moments in General Assembly when there is nothing else to do. There are hundreds of free games available, and here are a few that I like.

Checkers v2.0. Before I learned chess, I played checkers, and was once pretty good at it (college champ). This is version was released on June 12, 2003 by 
Gobble! 2.0. I couldn't find a screen shot of Gobble, but this picture is close. When my children were growing up we bought an Atari game set that came with Pong and Ms PacMan. Gobble is a PacMan variation, and it is free. You can eat power pills and ghosts, just like in the original PacMan. Gobble! is a freeware gift from
