SGS CIG abt "Using PDAs for Genealogy" on Nov. 8th, 2003 November's Seattle Genealogical Society Computer Interest Group program will be "Using Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) for Genealogy." A PDA is a palm-sized computer that enables a researcher to take their information "on the road", whether it is to a local repository, across the country or around the world. We will discuss the advantages and limitations of these handy devices. Sherry Holthe of Millennia Corporation will join us again to talk about Palm OS based PDAs and demonstrate using the GedStar Plus genealogy database for Palm PDAs. Dave Ault will talk about Pocket PC PDAs and demonstrate using the Pocket Genealogy database, Microsoft Pocket Word, and MS Pocket Excel. John Wise will discuss and demonstrate using Microsoft Reader, MS Outlook Calendars & Address Lists, and wireless connections. Please join us on Saturday, 8 November 2003, from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. We will meet in the SGS Library at 6200 Sand Point Way NE in Seattle. Parking is available on the nearby streets.
