About:
PalmOrb is software that allows you to use your PalmOS device as an LCD status display for your computer. You can display system stats (such as CPU load graphs, CPU temperatures, free disk space), news alerts, stock indexes, WinAmp graphs, etc. It works by pretending to be (or emulating) a real LCD (a Matrix Orbital LK204-25). You can use existing software that expects a Matrix Orbital display.

Release focus: Major feature enhancements

Changes:
This version features a selectable font size, enabling the full screen to be used. There is also USB Palm support, including for pre-PalmOS 4.0 models.

[»] USB Palm support!
by Chris Lansley - Nov 25th 2004 16:58:54

USB Palms are supported on both linux and Windows.

For USB support on Windows you will need LCD Smartie 5.3 alpha 3 or above, and PalmOrb alpha 2 or above.
