Use of color Color is used conservatively on the Palm IIIc. The background of all programs is bright white, and the tabs, bounding boxes, and selected items are blue. Highlighted text is yellow, the backgrounds of many icons are baby blue, and some icons have a few colors. There is already a third party program available to change these colors, but I haven't played with it yet. One of the first color programs I have seen is Code City's CityTime software.
Color does add something special.
The shipping version of the Palm IIIc is supposed to include four color-enabled software programs that were not included for my advance review. First there's Album To Go from Club Photo, which offers easy download of color JPEG images to the Palm IIIc. PowerOne is an enhanced color calculator from Infinity Softworks, offering business and scientific functions. Chroma Gammon is a color backgammon game, and AvantGo's new color browser is also supplied, offering both offline channel viewing and live website browsing, in color where supported. I tried downloading the new AvantGo color browser, but while one of the icons had some color, and the tab had color, I was unable to find any channels or browse any web pages in color.
