Supermemo + J-OS on Palm - simple - 2007-10-06
Hello all,
I just bought a Palm Tungsten E2. I'm just wondering if anyone got supermemo to work well using J-OS or another means for studying Japanese. I am of course going to try out twinkle but would like to try a few alternatives as well...
Thanks,
Sam

I tried the supermemo and J-OS approach and after two weeks of no sucess and a crazy number of e-mails to get help, I gave up and switched to twinkle. I've been using twinkle for about a year now and have had no regrets.
Hope this helps,
Jon

I have a palm T|X with supermemo running on it. I do agree some of the functions are a little confusing to access at first (maybe it's a different version now?), but it didn't take too long to get comfortable with it.
I think basically, if you want something no-frills, that does it's job, and you don't have to pay anything for, twinkle is definitely the way to go.
If you don't mind paying $19.99 for it, supermemo has a few extra features (customization; increased font size, etc.) that, although I'm not going to tell you make much of a difference for actually learning things, do make things a little nicer to learn.

Hello. Thank you for your replys.
Christoph... I am wondering if you also installed J-OS or something similar or if you have a Japanese palm. Thanks

Yeah, I installed a J-OS on mine, I went for the one by Hacker Dudeさん, because it allows you to enter kanji aswell. This does have a catch, being that you have to pay for it.
You can of course just use say Yomeru, which doesn't allow you to input but it does allow you to view Japanese characters and (most importantly) is free.
