Yes, I used to use that on Palm before I got Laridians program. It was excellent, even on older Palms without color. It would probably be a good option for some people, and has probably also improved quite a bit since I used it last.

But e-Sword is really awesome. I like the free MKJV translation, and it has a lot of nice add on reference works and commentaries. Including some great standards for Bible dictionaries and commentaries. Message translation is free, and NASB is available for purchase I believe.

For commercial products, Laridian is very nice, and has a relatively new version out. But you have to repurchase for Pocket PC so it can get pretty expensive. Even so, I'm often tempted to get it because it has NIV, and the Daily Readings feature (on Palm at least, don't know if it's in PPC version) is excellent. It also has the particular daily reading plan that I like, which is not available anywhere else to the best of my knowledge.
