We've been using this piece of freeware called GeoClipping, written by
Robert Schoolfield. We are very impressed with it. It requires Internet
Explorer and a Palm OS or Pocket PC PDA.
 
For Palm users, you open Palm Desktop, and then point IE to a cache
page. You click the "clip" button in the application, and it copies the
web page, reformats it into text, opens a new memo in Palm Desktop, and
pastes the cache description (and optionally the cache logs) into the
memo. The next time you HotSync, it's in your Palm. Pocket PC seems to
work in a similar fashion, but haven't tried it.
 
You can download it at:
http://home.earthlink.net/~rschoolf/geoclipping.htm. I don't recall
seeing any mention of it here, so I thought I'd pass it along.
