Title: Quick intro but seems shallow
Review: I'm a professional Windows software developer, but this was my first Palm OS book. It gave me a good, quick introduction, but seems shallow. It didn't take long to read because so much of it is code that should have been cut out and just left on the CD-ROM. Almost every chapter has a full listing of the on-going example. For instance, chapter nine, "Categories and Find", is 73 pages, but 41 pages are the complete code listing for the on-going example!The cover claims that you will "Open This Book as a Novice and Finish It as a Pro", which I think is a major overstatement. You'll definitely know more than when you started (assuming you're a novice), but I really doubt you'll be "pro" material.The included CodeWarrior Lite program is awful. I tried it several times and found it to be frustrating and bug ridden. I'm using gcc instead.So, while this book has gotten me started, I will be looking for something better.
