Gah!  That's the one I'm referring to.  I was thinking Plucker, because at
one time I did use it, after I found it more appealing than PalmReader.  So,
take every instance of Plucker and replace it with Cachemate, as that was
what in my head at the time.  It's an absolutely amazing program.  Now, it
only benefits cachers with the use of .gpx files, so .loc will do no good
whatsoever.  Either you need to use the gc.com PQs, or the azgc.com files if
up-to-date.

I've been very happy with CacheMate for my Palm.  It has a similar feature
set and the registered version is also only $7.

I used to use PalmReader until I learned of Plucker. Now that's what I use
exclusively. The notes portion rocks when you are logging finds. They
automatically move from the Unfound to Found when you check the box, and you
can shorthand notes for what you took/left, any TB info, etc...with
PalmReader you have a slightly similar method, but it's exclusively notes.
No options to check off which were found/not found. It was also more
difficult to remove caches you'd already found. With Plucker, it's really
simplistic in that you can choose which set of caches to view. Plus,
Plucker will calculate based on current coords of the cache you're at and
give you caches closest based on direction chosen, difficulty, distance,
bearing and a number of other methods.

To get a full version (limited to 10 caches for unregistered) amounts to
only $7 and it has already paid for itself numerous times.

PLUCKER is the best thing I've seen for Palm. works great, I use it and 
the Palm memo pad for taking caching notes on the trail.
