Which book is best for you depends on how much programming experience you
have.
I found "Palm OS Programming for Dummies" to be very good. It does a very
good job explaining how many of the various parts of a Palm program fit
together, giving step-by-step instructions like "If you want to do this, 1st
do X, then Y, then Z, etc." I was not impressed with "Teach Yourself Palm
Programming in 24 Hours". I haven't read "Palm Programming From the Ground
Up". If you have previous programming experience, I think that "Palm
Programming: The Developer's Guide" is an excellent choice. You can preview
a lot of this book online at
http://www.palmos.com/dev/tech/docs/devguide/TableOfContents.htm .
You can find a lot of recommendations from other palm-dev-forum members by
searching the archives at eGroups or eScribe.
