When they appear I semi-automatically ported my ReadThemAll reader for PalmOS from C to their flavor of Pascal. Worked well. Interestingly they still offer the product as I see (http://www.winsoft.sk/pstudio.htm). Pity PalmOS is dead, otherwise it would be reasonable to suggest some kind of compatibility between fpc and PocketStudio.
