Useful information
I just wanted to let you know how impressed I am with the wonderful information you've put together. I found [AuthorPower] while doing research for a talk I'm giving for the local branch of ASBPE on editing technical writing for magazine use. I hope you won't mind if I use some of your information (fully credited, of course) as handouts for the attendees. Since we're in Houston, they're mostly in the oil and gas industry, and I doubt many of them would run across your information otherwise.
Again, you did a great job. Thanks so much for gathering so much useful material in one convenient place!
-- Kelli D. Meyer, Chief Operating Officer, Quality Publishing Services, Inc.
Cutting edge
Congratulations for the success of ZATZ... it is great reading and keeps me on the cutting edge info...
-- Leonardo Bruno Oliveira
Excellent reporting
You and your staff do an excellent job of reporting on the vastly changing handheld market. It is very much appreciated.
-- Steve Kesler
Profoundly written and intelligently designed
I just wanted to commend you on a fine job. Rarely have I seen an e-zine so profoundly written and intelligently designed. It's informational without being bulky -- graphics are kept light, and I like that because pages load quickly.
The PalmPilot community owes you a great debt for your e-zine. I wish you great success for the future and I'll be checking back in next month!
-- Jason Weill
Defending the First Amendment
Again my thanks for the spirited defense of the first amendment.
-- Russell Charette
#1 source for professional information
I wish to congratulate you on a very good magazine, which will probably become my #1 source for professional (as opposed to Internet community) information on the PalmPilot.
I also would like to give some praise on the Web-design - very smooth, simple, fast, correct and nice. Works fine with Lynx, too. This is exactly how I wish all Web-magazines would look.
The easy-print alternatives show that you really have grasped what a Web magazine should be able to do -- truly using the media to its fullest.
Please keep your Web design as it is, and don't fall into the huge-amount-of-graphics-and-all-the-hottest-non-standard-tags-trap.
Have a nice year.
-- Lars Olofsson
Invaluable...
I always find your magazine to be invaluable in this new world of Windows CE.
-- Chris J. Cooney
Equals print in quality
Thanks for a good magazine that equals print in quality.
-- Jim Stutsman, The Sewing Room
Lives and breathes our every word daily
Thank you for the fine job on your electronic magazine. I don't know how much feedback you get, but I wanted to at least let you know that one reader lives and breathes your every word daily. I ... rely very much on your great articles and information. Keep up the great work!!
-- Pete Radike, MSN
Awesome magazine
Thank you for the review of the exciting things going on in today's and tomorrow's Palm market. Thank you for your time and an awesome magazine.
-- Thomas Ward
Read more ads in 30 minutes than in past year
I really like your content. I just found you while surf-searching....
I like PalmPower's simple, not-in-your-face, flashing, bold-red-yellow-flaming, your-world-will-end-in-five-minutes-if-you-don't-buy-me-right-now ads. In fact, I've checked out three of your advertisers in the 30 minutes I've been reading -- as a point of reference, I may have only clicked that many banner page ads in the past year! Keep up the good work.
PS: Feel free to pass this on to your current and potential advertisers. Maybe they'll get a clue that the whole world isn't attention deficit.
-- Greg Sampson
Great publication
You have such a great publication for those of us who use our PalmPilots.
-- Deng Biao
Product managers love us
As product manager for the Symbol SPT 1500 (a Palm Computing Platform based device), your review comparing Windows CE with Palm OS in the March issue was a refreshing read and I'll pass it along to others in the organization.
-- Chris Ciervo
Saved him hours of research
I just wanted to thank you for a well-researched and well-written article on Call Management for the PalmPilot. I got on the Web tonight to see if there was a solution for call management and saw your article. That's why I love the Web. You saved me hours of research. Thanks again.
-- Matt Gillespie, Charlotte, NC
Valued partner
Each year Karrier Communications presents selected key partners with IntelliGolf's Valued Partner Award for their outstanding contributions to our mutual business success. This year, Karrier would like to recognize you and PalmPower Magazine for your inspiration and belief in us during 1998.

Please pass along our thanks to your entire team. Thank you again for your inspiration and continued support.
-- Craig Schmidt, Karrier Communications
Excellent information
Thanks for the great article on standards and developer productivity! Just a quick thank you for both your articles on UI standards (November 1998 and June 1999). I just started a new long-term contract, cleaning up a bunch of color-blind drunk-monkey code as well as creating some new databases, too.
I had been debating finally putting together a standards database but it had gotten pushed to the low-priority stack. Now, however, just having read the first article, I can't wait to get started! Thanks again for all the new ideas (and I haven't even read your second article yet!) and the time you took to share this excellent information.
-- Alicia Brewer
On the right track
Thank you for your article on standards when it comes to the development of databases for Notes and Domino. I'm new to developing in this environment, and the information in this article has given me a great start in getting the standards formalized.
As a matter a fact, when I created my first application in Domino, I played with colors, fonts, etc. as you mentioned in your article. I found what I liked and when I was asked to create another one I kept to the same format that I did in the first database. It seems that I'm on the right track!
Won't take up anymore of your time as I'm sure it's busy. Thank you again for your thoughts on this subject. I will definitely be using them.
-- Sharon Plunk
Ton's o' traffic
You would not believe how much traffic your article has sent to my site. I could not have BOUGHT better advertising! Be sure to pass this on to your advertising prospects!
-- Greg McKinney, Pilotmail.com
Make an impression
As a recent Palm III owner and a new regular reader of PalmPower I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed your Make an Impression piece. It moved me. Thank you.
-- Alastair Johnston
Well written
All I want to say is that I think it's a great job you're doing writing this magazine! And the articles are well written as well! It's really useful information you distribute. NICE WORK!!!
-- Alex I. Sinvani, Geomarketing, Mobilix A/S
Become a superstar at work
Wow -- I am so impressed with the first issue of PalmPower! I ran across it today as I was searching for information on a way to link up with Lotus Notes Calendar ... and there was an article on the very subject that is going to make me a superstar at work! Thanks -- and I look forward to upcoming issues of PalmPower!
-- B. Wiehler
No longer sleeps at night
I know this may not be the correct email link for what I want to say and convey, but what the heck, I also know it will get across my message. Since obtaining my two (2) Palm IIIs, one for me and one for my wife, and then discovering your Web site, my life has changed dramatically.
I no longer sleep at night, I'm hooked on Jolt cola and Mountain Dew with black coffee chasers, and my wife thinks I've found another woman, although she has the answer right in her Palm ;-)).
Seriously though, your Web site is just absolutely great and filled with the kind of information I find both useful and informative. A great job well done if I may say so, and I do.
Keep up the good work.
-- Carl Quick
Clean design and terrific content
Great looking site! I really like the clean design and terrific content. Thanks again, and happy Piloting!
-- Craig Froehle
Read almost every article
Just found your magazine, and I love it (as I love my Pilot). I've read almost every article in the new issue, and that's very unusual for me.
-- Craig Kalpakjian
Thanks for the tips
Thanks for the Tips you have sent, they are very informative! Also, I love your site! GREAT JOB!! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!
-- Dale L. Brock
Glad to have found us
Boy, am I glad to have found your newsletter! My current employer recently supplied me with a Palm Pilot Professional, and I've been trying to get familiar with its features. I'm getting along pretty well with the built-in software, but in searching the Web have found out how much more I might be able to do.
-- David Sislowski
Wonderful
Thank you for the tip. This PalmPower tip email list is wonderful.
-- Ethan Stettner
Well up there
I think you're doing a great job with the PalmPower Magazine -- it's well up there with other online magazines, and even the glossy magazines.
-- Ewen McNeill
Tell your friends
Thank you for a very nice e-zine. It's certainly something I'll come back to and tell my friends about. Anything with cool tips in it gets my attention! Once again, nice mix of content and well-done articles. Thanks!
-- Gary Saxer
Very impressed
I don't normally post comments, but I was very impressed by your premier issue. As to the suggestion -- keep up the good work!!
-- Bob Hall
Filling a void
Thanks for filling a void. Looking forward to upcoming issues.
-- John Wanner
Made education interesting
Hello. I'm brand new to PalmPilot and your site. I must say that you've made my education much more interesting. I love coming to PalmPower and getting tips, etc. Thank you.
-- Mark D. Johnson
Thoughtful of readers
I appreciate the Easy Print feature of your articles. I wish more Web-zines were as thoughtful of their readers as you are. Thanks and I hope you have a long and prosperous future.
-- Marianna V.
Relevent, current, and informative
As someone who has been following the whole Palm/handheld computer/PDA saga for a long time, I want to thank you for your new Web-zine PalmPower. It is relevant, current, and informative. It sounds like you are enjoying the new challenges and rewards of interactive publishing.
I really enjoyed your interview with Jeff Hawkins--lots of good food for thought and an interesting perspective. I've known a number of the people involved with the starting of the Newton, and it is interesting to note some of the similarities and differences. Keep up the good work!
-- Mark A. Ritchie
Likes design and layout
I heartily agree with the design and layout (short pages, thumbnails, etc.) of this first issue. Like many experiences on the Web, I happened upon this by chance -- and I'm glad I did.
Thanks, and I'll be reading (and looking forward to my weekly tip)! Best of luck.
-- Mark S. Hahn
Great resource
The Palmpower magazine is a great resource. Keep up the good work.
-- Matthew Seymour
Read cover-to-cover
Congratulations on a job well done. I just finished reading your premiere issue - cover to cover. Not since I first read Wired magazine and ZD Internet magazine have I felt that I found what I am looking for in a magazine (online or off). I sent your URL to all my PalmPilot friends, knowing that most of them will feel the same. Keep up the great work.
-- Ophir Prusak
Three cheers
LOOKS GREAT!!! Just happened upon the premiere issue -- very impressive. Anyway, really enjoyed the articles. Thanks. Three cheers for issue one!
-- Paul V. Brown
Another Easy Print fan
First, I'd like to say Thanks for a great online magazine. Second, I'd like to say thanks for having Easy Print. It makes printing off the articles much easier! Thanks!
-- Phil Kelly
Likes a lot
I just wanted to say that I like your magazine very much. Thanks for a very informative magazine.
-- Paul Lee
Great ideas
I think I like the content; but haven't read the entire issue yet. Just wanted to comment on the email and easy print functions. Great idea!
-- Eric D. Larson
Promptly bookmarked
I found your magazine from the Lotus site, and promptly bookmarked it. I will be back when ever I need a quick break and so far like what I have seen (and read). Best of luck with your new venture.
-- Bob Szanto
Finally!
Finally! Somebody sat down and decided to create a vehicle, a well-crafted vehicle at that, to distribute solid technical information about all that is Domino. Thank you!
The folks at Notes.net have been doing a fairly good job, but sometimes the real information gets watered down. I like knowing that there is a hopefully objective, albeit somewhat evangelistic (by nature), site for a growing base of Domino Technical Professionals. I look forward to being a regular visitor, and I have informed a pile of folks to visit your site.
-- Chaseman
Salutations
My salutations to a worthy publication. Just a couple of hours back I learned of your site and I have had the pleasure of spending a good two hours on your current and inaugural issue. The site is cool, pleasant, and informative. You have in me a Web-fan.
-- Rajnikant Rao
