RAD tools can allow development across multiple operating systems, and then an application can be made available to Palm or Pocket PC users etc.
RAD tools can also ease integration into databases and backend systems and create a seamless mobility solution.
Development can take from a few weeks to many months depending on the complexity of the handheld software. A pilot is normally run to fine tune the handheld software and ensures the development meets users and business needs, then a full role out is initiated.
Developers of handheld software must consider many factors and influences including the following

* OS to be used
* Hardware to be used and its capabilities

PDA Screen.

PDA Screen - is where you read the information on your handheld. It is also the part of your handheld that requires the most protection.

You can purchase a leather or hard case to protect the screen when not in use. The screen can be damaged while in use if reasonable care is not taken. Therefore it makes sense to protect your screen against all eventualities. Haphazared use of the stylus may result in a scratched screen. Prolonged use can also cause wear to the screen as you enter your data.

A screen protector gives you piece of mind no more worrying about scratches or damage of any sort. A protector also provides “drag” on the display making the text easier to read.

There are a wide choice of protectors available on the market for various handhelds, from Palms to Pocket PCs. They are available to suit all pockets.
