- Mike: If you are using Mobilpocket on your Palm, you shouldn't have to do a lot of scrolling. Try this: Make sure you are in the Table of Contents - the icon looks like a home Open up the find window - you can do this by using your stylus and entering a forward slash from the bottom up and then the write the letter F Enter a portion of the cache name or the waypoint identifier GC**** - then let Mobilpocket find the page for you Close the find window and you are all set You search for clues in the appendix using the same procedure.

I just wish that I could get the waypoints to sort in alphabetical order too. It would make it nice when your just driving along and you do a get nearest waypoint on your GPS. Now, I have to wade through screen after screen to find the correct mileage from my search. On the Palm you don't have many listed on one screen and if you customize your reports with several hundred miles from your location, then that's a lot of scrolling and looking at every page until you find that waypoint. Other than that, I love it too. It is well worth 30.00 a year!

I gladly pay the meager yearly fee to get the additional perks. Before I joined the premium membership, I didn't think much about it, but after I became a premium member about 4 months ago, I don't know what I would do without it. I love it that I can put the cache pages on my palm, and that they will email me customized cache searches numerous times a week to add to my palm. That is just awesome. I don't think that there are any premium member only caches around here, but that is ok. The palm pilot thing is worth it.

It gives them a chance to take the hike and enjoy the hunt without any feedback about how or why they should have done something. Keeping a low profile might be a good idea.
