As someone else on the list suggested, I recommend Tellico all the way. One of the things I like about Tellico (besides that it's visually pleasing) is that it allows you to record if you have loaned any of your collection to someone else. If you read Linux Journal and are aware of the "Cooking with Linux" column, this article was written about Tellico: http://www.marcelgagne.com/cwl042005.html And you can apparently export to your Palm, according to this article.
