Introduction
------------

Pocket Tunes turns your PalmOS 5 device into a portable audio player!
Play compressed audio files (MP3 or Ogg Vorbis) or uncompressed WAV
files from a flash memory card.

Registration
------------

Pocket Tunes is free to try for 15 days. After that, you must purchase
a registration code. There are two versions you can purchase:
Pocket Tunes Basic and Pocket Tunes Deluxe.

Pocket Tunes Deluxe ($37.95)
The deluxe version contains all the latest features of Pocket Tunes.
The deluxe version includes free upgrades to all future 3.X versions,
when available.

Pocket Tunes Basic ($19.95)
The basic version is missing some features (WMA, streaming audio,
crossfade and bookmarks) but otherwise works exactly like the deluxe
version. The basic version includes free upgrades to all future 3.X
versions, when available.

You can register online at www.pocket-tunes.com . All major credit
cards are accepted, and you will receive your code within minutes of
your purchase. To register via PayPal, send the registration price
(plus 5% sales tax if you are a Massachusetts, USA resident) to
normsoft at normsoft.com . We try to send PayPal order codes within
24 hours. To register by mail or some other method, please contact
sales at pocket-tunes.com for details.

(Prices as of December 2006. Subject to change without notice.)

Installation
------------

Installing Pocket Tunes is very easy. On Windows, simply double-click
the pTunes.exe file and follow the installation instructions.

On Macintosh or Linux, simply follow these steps:

1. You will need a program to extract ZIP files. On Windows, I suggest WinZip
(www.winzip.com). For Macintosh, Stuffit Expander is a popular program.

2. If you have an old version of Pocket Tunes installed, you must not
be playing music. Open the Pocket Tunes application (not the console)
and tap the "Pause" or "Stop" button before installing the new version.

3. Open the Pocket Tunes ZIP file and double-click on PocketTunes.prc

4. If you wish to install the included skin, double-click on HiFiSkin.pdb
(or HiFiLowRes.pdb for low-resolution devices like the Treo 600).

4a. If you have a Tungsten T3, you should also install the two PRC files in the
TungstenT3 directory in this ZIP file.

4b. If you want to install any plugins, double-click on them to install them.

5. Perform a HotSync operation.

6. Pocket Tunes will be installed to the Multimedia category on your Palm.
