The Two-Part Solution. Most Palm solutions are composed of a handheld application and desktop conduit. For example, the Address Book has a built-in conduit that synchronizes the address book information on the handheld with the address book information in the Palm Desktop PIM.

The handheld portion. The portion that resides on the handheld and allows the user to view and manipulate data.

The conduit portion. Here you have code that handles syncing the data with a desktop application. When a user puts a Palm OS device in its cradle and presses the HotSync button, the handheld application begins communicating with the desktop conduit.

Essential Design Elements. These are the essential elements in a Handheld application:

It needs to take into account small screen size.
It needs to limit text input on the handheld.
It needs to seamlessly sync to a program on a desktop computer.
It needs to be small.
It needs to be fast.
