That's right. It was quite buggy and awkward, but it could play sounds quite
well.

Also, it had the capability to play music (i.e. larger files), but the
conversion tool was horrible. It was really hard to get any music file
converted to a Palm-compatible format, let alone change the default sounds.
Some of them were annoying.

let me know if you want the URL.
