Version 1.0
This digital world clock is a must for global traveler! Set your home
location then choose four world locations from the extensive database
provided and it will show you the exact time in each location,
automatically adjusted for daylight saving. AirTime has precise time zone
and daylight saving information for every country in the world plus nearly
1000 cities (in the optional full database). Create up to eight custom
entries to personalize the display. Easily update your device clock to the
new local time on arrival at your destination. AirTime has optimum support
for all monochrome, grayscale and color devices.
AirTime supports Palm Computing« devices running Palm OS 2.0 (or later).
This includes PalmPilot Professional, Palm III series (including IIIc),
Palm V/Vx, Palm VII/VIIx, Palm m100, Handspring Visor, IBM WorkPad series,
TRGpro, Qualcom pdQ, Symbol SPT series and similar devices.
The minimum amount of free storage required is 50KB.
INSTALLATION
To install AirTime, select the following files with the Palm Install tool to
queue the application and optional database for installation on the next
HotSync:
AirTime.prc (AirTime application)
AirTime2000.pdb (Full world database)
The optional full database contains entries for all countries/time zones
(over 300 countries plus nearly 1000 cities). If you do not install this,
the AirTime application will use an internal database of some 200 countries
and 100 cities only. The full database can be installed at any time.
The application and databases will be automatically backed up on your
computer (as required) on successive HotSyncs.
OPERATION
AirTime has two displays: Home and World. Select the desired mode by
tapping on the appropriate tab at the top of the display. Also, if you've
assigned AirTime to one of your hardware buttons (with the Prefs
application), repeatedly pressing this button will flip modes. Set the mode
you want AirTime to start with by tapping the Menu silk-screened button and
selecting Preferences from the Options menu.
AirTime has been designed to be fully self supporting on your device. For a
description of each mode, tap the Menu silk-screened button and select Help
from the Options menu. For help on dialogs, tap the small i (information)
at top right of each dialog.
REGISTRATION
AirTime is shareware. You may use this software for a period of up to 14
days from installation for evaluation purposes. If you find the program
useful and continue to use it, you are required to register (pay for it).
Register online at any of the following:
www.bitwareoz.com
www.palmgear.com
www.handango.com
You'll need to provide your device's HotSync/User name when you register.
This is the name you chose for your device when the Palm Desktop software
was installed. If you've forgotten what this name was, it is displayed in
the top right corner of the device display at the completion of a HotSync
operation. It is also displayed in the Name field of the AirTime
Registration dialog.
On registration, you'll receive a personal license code that will cause the
banner to be no longer displayed and enable you to continue using the
software after the evaluation period. You'll also get free upgrades and
technical support (e-mail only). Annual world database updates will be
available for download each year in January.
TECHNICAL SUPPORT
Please send any queries, bug reports, and suggestions by e-mail to
support@bitwareoz.com. All queries will be answered. Make sure you identify
your device type and model, Palm OS version and AirTime version.
KNOWN ISSUES
1. There is a bug in Palm OS 3.1 through 3.3 that may cause alarms to be
lost or delayed when the device is powered off. This is not restricted to
AirTime but affects alarms for other applications including the built-in
Date Book. If you experience such problems, a soft reset (see your device
manual) is reported to be an effective fix. Owners of flash enabled devices
should upgrade to Palm OS 3.5 (when available). For more info, see:
http://www.palm.com/support/helpnotes/hardware/alarm_prob.html
2. Installation of a corrupted database (.pdb file) will cause AirTime to
crash! Check that your unzip utility does not have an option to "translate
line end characters" enabled. The Macintosh ZipIt utility is a common
offender.
3. If you have FlashPro (or a similar utility) installed, you can reclaim
storage by moving the provided files (application and database) to flash
memory. Moving applications with alarms set can cause crashes so you are
advised to disable the AirTime "Monitor DST changes" Preferences option
prior to moving the application to/from flash memory. This also applies
when performing a Defragment Flash operation when the application is in
flash memory.
4. Some third-party application launchers don't cleanup correctly prior
to passing control to AirTime which can cause AirTime to crash when the
banner is dismissed. Contact the author of the launcher for a fix.
5. AirTime is not currently compatible with PalmPilot Personal devices.
If you experience other problems running AirTime and have HackMaster or
replacement application launchers installed, first disable these to
determine the cause of the error. Such hacks and launchers may modify the
operating environment of your device. If you find an incompatibility,
please report this to the author of the hack/launcher.
YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE
AirTime is Year 2000 compliant. The operating date range of this software is
January 1, 1904 to December 31, 2031 inclusive.
