New Psion Series 5 Software

Psion have released the EasyFax software promised at launch for the Series 5. This allows you to send and receive faxes, but the current version (1.01f) has a couple of bugs that are declared on the Psion Web site. EasyFax is a free download. One down: now the email, web browser and GSM stacks still to go.

As expected, a number of shareware applications are now available for the Series 5, ported over from the Series 3. This has been delayed because the SDK has been late to arrive. Take a look at Steve Lichfield's 3-lib web pages for details of his Mapper program and some games, or look at the Softbase Series 5 collection of links.
