History
Palm Goodies Vol. 1 was a software package published by Pilot Island Publishing, Inc., presented on its cover as "the ultimate collection of goodies" for the PalmPilot.1 The retail package included a CD-ROM compatible with Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows NT 4.0, and shipped with a "Stylus With A Twist," a $19.95-value unit that worked as a pen one way and as a stylus for the handheld the other.1
The disc carried hundreds of programs for the PalmPilot connected organizer, sorted into categories that included Custom, Education, Business (inventory, e-mail, and fax), Travel (hotels, maps, and translators), Graphics, Leisure, and a "Hot Stuff" section labeled Pilot Island's Top 30.1
The package was built around The BreEZe Interface, a companion Windows program for selecting, organizing, and uploading PalmPilot programs.1
