I've had a Palm since the mid-'90s and in 2010-04, got an iPhone. Switching over was a ''lot'' of work. I have five hundred contacts (with lots of notes and birthdays) eight hundred memos, hundreds of web and other passwords, and about a hundred to-dos. Here's a list of Palm applications, and what I've replaced them with on the iPhone: || '''Palm App''' || '''What It Does''' || '''iPhone App''' || || '''Page 1''' || '''Frequently Used''' || || ||Big Clock ||4 World clocks, 4 alarms, 4 timers ||Almost entirely replaced by iPhone clock || ||!HandyShopper ||Sophisticated list management ||!SplashShopper is a superset, but has a bit of a learning curve || ||Parens ||Regular, scientific, statistical, time, unit conversions, currency calculator ||Measures || || ||Flashlight ||Tiltmeter || || ||Bubble level, ||Flashlight Pro || ||Progect ||Mini project manager ||Most functions replaced by 2DO || ||Note Pad ||Thousands of memos about all kinds of things, arranged in folders ||Evernote (syncs to your laptop and The Cloud)|| ||!SecurID Token || Single-use password 2-factor authentication ||Also available on iPhone || ||Strip ||Securely store passwords ||!PasswordWallet.
