WordFind and PalmOS5

By gram

Tuesday, October 14, 2003

I've had mixed reports about WordFind on ARM CPU Palms with PalmOS 5 (i.e. Palm Tungstens). Some people say it works, some say it worked and then stopped working, and some that it doesn't work.

PalmOS 5, although it runs on a ARM CPU, still uses Motorola Dragonball code. Only small, performance critical portions of code can be rewritten as "ARMlets". Therefore I don't think there is much that can be done to track this down without reliable repros. If you have an ARM-based Palm device and experience problems with WordFind I'd like to hear about it.
