                              Version  3.45


Not just a pretty face, Clock+ is a full-featured travel/alarm clock for
the Palm OS Powered devices. See the current time at a glance with large
easy-to-read anti-aliased digits. Use it to time intervals with ease. Set
an unlimited number of alarms, each with their own name, repeat and sound
settings. View the local time for up to four locations selected from the
included World database, updated annually with current daylight saving
dates to ensure 100% accuracy. Clock+ will even remind you when daylight
saving has just started or ended.

Clock+ is also available in Chinese BIG5, French and German translations.

Clock+ supports all Palm OS Powered devices running Palm OS 2.0 (or later).
This includes devices from Palm, Handspring, Sony, TRG, Symbol, IBM etc.
Optimum support is provided for all monochrome, grayscale and color
devices.

The minimum amount of free storage required is 100KB.


INSTALLATION

To install Clock+, select the following files with the Palm Install tool to
queue the application and database(s) for installation on the next HotSync:

   ClockPlus.prc           (Clock+ application)

and optionally:

   ClockPlusWorld2001.pdb  (Full World database)
   ClockPlusMIDI.pdb       (Additional alarm sounds - Palm OS 3.0 or later)

The optional World database contains entries for all countries/timezones
(over 300 countries plus nearly 1000 cities). If you do not install this,
the Clock+ application will use an internal database of some 200 countries
and 100 cities only. The full database can be installed at any time.

If you have a prior version installed on your device, simply install this
version on top of it. The application and databases will be automatically
backed up on your desktop (as required) on successive HotSyncs.


FUNCTION

The primary uses of Clock+ can be summarized as follows:

* As an easy-to-read clock. Clock+ supports all international time formats
and can optionally display seconds. Also, if you've assigned Clock+ to one
of the hardware buttons, pressing this button will power up the device and
instantly display the current time.

* As a handy timer. The timer has large buttons so you can start/stop it
without the stylus. For a quick countdown timer, set the start time in
increments of 5 minutes by pressing the up/down key then tap Start. Just
the thing for parking meters!

* Set multiple alarms, even years in advance! For these, set the alarm
options to Alarm (or Alarm+Backlight). When it expires, a dialog will be
displayed. You'll then need to either tap OK to acknowledge the alarm, or
Snooze to repeat the alarm sequence. Use your device as a flexible bedside
Alarm clock!

* For reminders, set the alarm options to Chime. The alarm will sound once
and be re-scheduled (if it repeats). No interaction is required.

* Display the exact time for any location in the world. The annual world
database contains over 300 country/time zone entries and nearly 1000
cities. It has up-to-date information on the time zone offset and daylight
savings start/end dates and times to ensure that the world time is accurate
to the minute. Tap the Swap button to change the device clock to local time
on arrival at your destination.

* Keep track of daylight saving changes. When you set your Home location,
the appropriate DST events are automatically added to the Clock+ events
database. When daylight saving starts or ends, Clock+ will prompt you to
update the device clock.


OPERATION

Clock+ has five modes: Home, Calendar, Timer, Alarm and World. Select the
desired mode by tapping on the appropriate icon at the top of the display.
Also, if you've assigned Clock+ to one of your hardware buttons (with the
Prefs application), repeatedly pressing this button will cycle through each
mode in turn. Set the mode you want Clock+ to start with by tapping the
Menu silk-screened button and selecting Preferences from the Options menu.

When you start timers, set alarms or choose your Home location, Clock+
stores these as events in its database. These events are always sorted in
order of their date/time occurrence. To view all current events, tap the
Menu silk-screened button and select List Events from the Record menu. As a
handy shortcut, tapping anywhere on the clock digits (in the top half of
the display) will invoke the Events List display.

In fact, a large number of the displayed elements are hot, meaning that if
you tap on them, something happens. Explore the interface by tapping
everywhere!

Clock+ has been designed to be fully self supporting on your device. For a
description of each mode, tap the Menu silk-screened button and select Help
from the Options menu. For help on dialogs, tap the small i (information)
at top right of each dialog.


REGISTRATION

Clock+ is shareware. You may use this software for a period of up to 14
days from installation for evaluation purposes. If you find the program
useful and continue to use it, you are required to register (pay for it).
Registration will cause the banner to be no longer displayed and enable
you to continue using the software after the evaluation period. You'll
also be entitled to free upgrades to the software and annual world database
updates.

Register online at www.bitwareoz.com. Bitware Australia's web site supports
credit card transactions in US, Australian and Canadian dollars, Euros and
UK pounds. You'll need to provide your personal User/HotSync Name when you
register. (This is the name you chose to identify your device to the Palm
Desktop software. It's displayed in  the top right corner of the device
display at the completion of a HotSync operation and in the Name field of
the Clock+ Registration dialog.) At the completion of the registration
process you'll be sent a personal Registration Code and instructions.


TECHNICAL SUPPORT

Please send any queries, bug reports, and suggestions by e-mail to
support@bitwareoz.com. All queries will be answered. Make sure you identify
your device type and model, Palm OS version and Clock+ version.


KNOWN ISSUES

1. There is a bug in Palm OS 3.1 through 3.3 that may cause alarms to be
lost or delayed when the device is powered off. This is not restricted to
Clock+ but affects alarms for other applications including the built-in
Date Book. If you experience such problems, a soft reset (see your device
manual) is reported to be an effective fix. Owners of flash enabled devices
should upgrade to Palm OS 3.5 or later. For more info, see:

   http://www.palm.com/support/helpnotes/hardware/alarm_prob.html

2. Installation of corrupted databases (.pdb files) will cause Clock+ to
crash! Check that your unzip utility does not have an option to "translate
line end characters" enabled. The Macintosh ZipIt utility is a common
offender.

3. If you have FlashPro (or a similar utility) installed, you can reclaim
storage by moving all provided files (application and databases) to flash
memory. However, to avoid lost alarm events, resets etc. you MUST disable
pending alarms (select Delete All Events from the Record menu) IMMEDIATELY
PRIOR to moving the application to or from flash memory. The same applies
when performing a Defragment Flash operation when the application is in
flash memory. The Clock+ events database (created the first time you use
Clock+) must NOT be moved to flash memory.

4. Some third-party application launchers don't cleanup correctly prior
to passing control to Clock+ which can cause Clock+ to crash when the
banner is dismissed. Contact the author of the launcher for a fix.

If you experience other problems running Clock+ and have HackMaster or
replacement application launchers installed, first disable these to
determine the cause of the error. Such hacks and launchers may modify the
operating environment of your device. If you find an incompatibility,
please report this to the author of the hack/launcher.


YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

Clock+ is Year 2000 compliant. The operating date range of this software is
