"Where is v1.4?" I'd like to thank everyone for their patience and continued patronage. It's been 3 years since Pocket Diary's last release and people have expressed concern, sending e-mails of encouragement, and e-mails in total anger. Let me take this opportunity to formarlly acknowledge, Pocket Diary is still alive. Significant work was made (some time ago) for the development cycle of the next version. (Version 1.4) Though because of existing circumstances, releasing the next version has become an obvious challenge.

A couple of factors play a role in this dilemma. Despite these issues, effort is still being placed into releasing v1.4. (Believe it or not)

To help explain the problem, Arainia is not a huge company. (Just the opposite) Pocket Diary is distributed as Shareware, therefore, you should not expect to receive the "high quality support" that you may have come to depend on from software you purchase in a large retail store. It is our mission (and goal) to attempt and deliver this service to you, but understand, no promises have been made in the performance, support, or release dates for this software. Traditionally, this is what you will come to find with most programs that are distributed as Shareware.

Update posted for Palm OS version! An updated version of the Palm OS version of Pocket Diary has been posted in the download area.

Please note: this is *not* the PocketPC version, and unfortunately, Pocket Diary v1.4 has not been released yet either. (But it *will* eventually be released)

The updated Palm OS version fixes the "MemoryMgr.c,line:4365" error that some people were getting when clicking the "Write" button.

To install this version, you must delete the old "pdiary.prc" program off your handheld first. (If you haven't already done so) Schedule the new "pdiary.prc" file to be uploaded on your next HotSync using Instapp.exe.

Happy new year! A PocketPC version of Pocket Diary is currently being developed. It's uncertain whether or not this version will be included in the v1.4 release. In any case, it's planned to be released in the near future! If you have any suggestions or ideas for the PocketPC version, please feel free to share your thoughts with the author by using the feedback form in the Support section!

As for the PC version of Pocket Diary, the v1.4 release is expected to have some enhancements to the UI, as well as synchronization support for the PocketPC version. Improved networking support and database support are also on the list for new features, allowing Pocket Diary users to store, manage, and share their diary entries using a stand-alone or networked database.

Additional spelling dictionaries released. The following dictionaries have been completed and made available for download to be used with Pocket Diary's spell checker: English (U.K.), German, and Spanish. English (U.S.) is also made available for download, even though it comes with the Pocket Diary v1.1 distribution.

The Spanish dictionary contains only ~54,000 words. This is considerably small considered to the others. If anyone who uses these dictionaries could help with supplying their "custom.sdct", I would like to improve them as well as their translations. Please e-mail me through the Support section, if you're interested in helping.

Pocket Diary v1.0 finally released. This version includes the final touches and plug-in support. Plug-ins will allow additional utilities to be installed into Pocket Diary, later, without the need of releasing a new version. If the Pocket Diary project shows enough interest, I would like to write a "spell checker" plug-in! A "program update" plug-in, to check and download new versions of Pocket Diary, is already in the works and should be available within the next month!
