What's in my dub-ya?

In addition to what it came with, I have:

General & Documents:
AnaClock - analog clock
CardTXT - plain ASCII text files in/out of the SD Card
CspotRun - PalmDOC reader w/ DRM support for some e-books
iSilo - PalmDOC reader
Mapopolis - with every map in two states and one province
Mobipocket - eBook reader
Plucker - HTML reader
Pros & Cons - evaluate alternatives
QED - PalmDOC editor
SiED - PalmDOC editor
zDocJ - PalmDoC editor

Connected Applications:
AvantGo - for JiWire's HotSpot finder
Blazer 2 - web browser
EudoraWeb - faster text-only browser. Add Skweezer.Net's proxy/filter service, and net access is reasonably fast for e-mail and BBS use.
HRR - Ham Radio Resource
SeaTraffic - look at real-time traffic in Seattle. Pray I never have to move there.
upIRC - IRC chat
WebPro - incredibly slow browser

Games:
Ace - Biplane fighter game
Die Roller
Phyperoid - 'Asteroids' game
Pinballz - Pinball game
SolFree - Canfield or Klondike solitaire
Xonix - Qix for the Palm

Utilities:
3Xcom - file manager
5Nlaunch - launch 21 apps with two keystrokes
ATool! - battery management
CardBackup
EasterDay - Calculates Easter's date
Filez - File manager
Getdeblue - Get/send files without Hotsync
Graffiti Anywhere - Enables Graffiti (and, yes, I still have G-1, he he he)
InforSystem2 - Dumps file system details to memo pad
Memo2DOC - Convert any memo to a PalmDOC
MidiManager - Edit and add to sounds and ringtones
PPrefs - Create, edit profiles for preferences
Red Feline Backup - Backup freeware
Red Feline Tidy - Registryr fixer
NetClock - Sync time to NNTP server
PalmName - Change name of Palm
Single Button - Launch 5 apps with one keystroke
SyncAll - Toggle Archive bit to capture *all* files in a sync
TimeCalc - Calc days-hours-min-sec easily
WfsBackup
VFSi
WorldMate
zLauncher - set up with five tabs

Hacks:
YAHM - Seems to be the stablest hack manager
BeamAlertHack - don't nag me about leaving beam receive off when file received
ClipHack - Beat the 1K limit on copying text
Kiosk Hack - Lock Palm so only specific apps can run
ZLQuickLaunchHack - Speeds zLauncher startup

And, about 50 e-books, on a 64MB SD card, including the new Charlie Stross and Cory Doctorow novels, as well as many more from baen.com (all either Creative Commons freeware or no-DRM MobiBook PRC files). One or two using cSpotRun crypto. Many more pulled from HTML for reading with Plucker, e.g., the 9-11 Commission Report.

It rides on my belt in a $10 Targus nylon flapover case with a velcro belt strap.

One item in the pocket: A 4xAA battery recharger, so I can recharge away from the desk.

And, $30/mo GSM/GPRS service from T-Mobile... I bought a Canadian dub-ya, originally sold by Rogers, and they didn't lock dub-yas (unlike ATTWS).
