Me alegra haberme encontrado este hilo, y más con motivo de mi vuelta a Palm OS (posiblemente con una modesta Zire 22).

Soy veterinario y buscaba un vademecum de humana más que nada que me indicara principio activo y nombre comercial, puesto que muchas veces hago visitas rurales a domicilio y al no poder dispensar medicamentos y visto que mi furgón no es una farmacia, me veo con la necesidad de recetar a los animales medicamentos de humana, y en los nombres comerciales es donde más flojeo...

La dosificación ya es cosa a parte, porque es totalmente diferente según diferntes especies

En España las dos opciones disponibles son Vademécum y Medimécum, ambas comerciales. Lee sobre ellos en este post.

Gratuito, en inglés, pero con un módulo amplio de nombres comerciales españoles, tienes Epocrates Rx.

La mayor pega es la capacidad de la RAM de tu Z22 (20 MB disponibles) y la ausencia de ranura de tarjeta de expansión. Por ello, tal vez se ajuste más a tu Palm el Vademécum PDA Mini, que sólo ocupa 3 MB (aunque el Medimécum es mucho mejor):

[aisack]

Gracias por los consejos.
En principio, al ser de uso exclusivamente profesional, podría dispones de 8mb de memoria sin problema....
La cosa es que la memoria no volátil es lo más valioso de este PDA, más teniendo en cuenta que mis compañeros jamás han usado uno....
