Date
Wheel 3 Released with New Features
Bartlett, IL--Creative
Algorithms, developer of the Date Wheel(TM) time between dates
calculator, is
pleased to announce the release of Date Wheel 3. Date Wheel 3
adds new features and enhances usability—all based on valuable customer
feedback. Calculate lead times, countdown to an important event,
or just plain calculate the time between two dates in months, weeks,
days, or business days with this essential
tool for your Palm OS®-based
handhelds and Palm®
Treo(TM) smartphones.
Save and Load Tasks for Future
Reference, Automatic Countdowns
Now, besides just doing general what-if or quick lead time
calculations, Date Wheel 3 allows you to save tasks and reload them for
future reference. In addition, countdowns to a date can be
performed automatically--just use the today checkbox on the main screen
and save the task. Each time you load it, the duration will
automatically update, based on the current date.
Ideal User Interface for Date
Calculators
Date Wheel(TM)'s user interface was designed to fit any user's
needs. All screens can be manipulated via 5-way navigation,
stylus, fingers (using larger fingertip buttons), keypads, keyboards,
and Graffiti.
"I've tried several date calculators and keep coming back to Date
Wheel. It has the best user interface--love the fingertip
buttons. No need for a stylus on my Treo 650," states one
satisfied customer.
About Date Wheel(TM)
Date
Wheel(TM) is the electronic version of the plastic wheel-shaped
calendar
used by businesses to calculate lead times. It can also be used
to calculate the time between two dates or to calculate the Julian date
for any day of the year. The
time is calculated in months, weeks, days, and business days.
"(Date Wheel) is a
useful tool for project planning, time management, ... estimating lead
times, ... (to) count down to an important event, estimate shipping and
arrival times, determine the exact age of a relative or friend...
Ever try to calculate these kinds of things in your head or using a
calendar?" said Harv Laser, Palm editor of former Handheld Computing
Magazine. This handy
program performs all the
functions of your plastic wheel and more. New 'today' lock
feature makes countdowns automatic. Save tasks for future
reference. Use for both business applications and personal
applications—anytime you need to quickly calculate the time between two
dates. "Date
Wheel is the most
critical and utilized application on my PDA, which would have become
another piece of orphaned technology if it weren't for Date Wheel,"
attests another satisfied customer.
