The web site lists iphone, blackberry, android, windows mobile and palm.
Which mobile version do you use on the N900 ?

I am using Nitdroid. I used to go to GarnetVM Palm for my medical apps, there is none on maemo. Not any more, I just installed my favorite Merck manual, still struggling abit for epocrates, and whatever mobideMed you found, there is an android version. In addition, the android version make better use of the N900 screen than the GVM. Seeing is believing, pics are here; Nitdroid installation is here.

Enjoy, medical folks,

Garnet VM is a Palm OS emulator that I pretty much use on a daily basis.

Kchmviewer is great for reading medical books.

VNCViewer can be used with your home computer to access UptoDate software. Apparently version 17.3 doesn't require java websphere anymore so I'm hoping it will work in Garnet. I'm just waiting for the DVD to come by mail.

PM me if you need any help.

hi...addison..... succeeded in installing uptodate 17.3 in N900?

18.2 has been available for awhile now.

It still runs solely on java.

I don't think it will ever be possible to run on a tablet.

Sorry.

what should be the choice currently for medical apps ?
gvm or nitdroid ?

I probably would go with Nitdroid though I'm not able to use this since I have an older tablet.

For me, the set up I have with GVM, touch screen keyboard, and the invisible scroll bars on both sides of the screen (they do light up when touching them though) works perfectly.

I think that I'm the only one who does it this way, but then again, I'm not very normal.

I'm not quite sure how to say this, so yeah, I guess that I won't. *lol*

Anyway, I've got some really good dish on medical apps for the NIT.

I'd rather not say here directly since I don't want the medical company knowing how flawed their web site was programmed by some stupid mental idgit.

PM me for details.
