Download Evaluation

Here's How the Evaluation Works

Once the dictionary is installed on your PDA, and you've had a chance to read and accept our End-User License Agreement (EULA), you will be able to see the buttons, menus, crisp fonts, and general operation of our dictionary. While in evaluation mode, the dictionary displays 150 words (50 per section).

When you're ready to unlock the full 21,000 words, return to this website and purchase the dictionary. Purchasing gives you the right to unlock the full dictionary for one user (yourself) on one Palm OS® PDA. We'll give you a registration code which you enter directly into your PDA to unlock the full dictionary. You don't even have to download or transfer another file to your PDA!

We encourage you to beam the dictionary to all your friends both before and after you purchase it. You can find instructions here. When you beam the (registered or unregistered) dictionary onto another PDA, the new copy on the other PDA will start in evaluation mode so that your friend may consider a purchase as well.

Step 1: Download file to your desktop (PC, Macintosh) Computer

On most computers, when you click on this button, a window will pop up and offer you the choice to "Save" or "Open." You want to save the file to disk. Here's what that window looks like on several different kinds of computer:

A "Save As" window will pop up. Save thaidict.prc in a convenient place like your desktop. In Windows XP, you can choose to save on your desktop by clicking "Desktop" then "Save:"

On other versions of Windows and on the Macintosh, you can choose the desktop from a drop-down menu at the top of the "Save As" window.

On a few types of computers (Mac with Safari, Mac with Netscape), you won't ever see a window offering you to "Open" or "Save." Instead, when you click "Begin Download" above, a "Downloads" or "Download Manager" window will pop up. It won't have any buttons and you don't have to click anything. The file thaidict.prc has automatically been downloaded and you can find it on your desktop. Here's what the "Download" window looks like on one type of computer:

Step 2: Launch "Palm Desktop" Software and Install thaidict.prc on Your PDA

• On your desktop computer, launch the "Palm Desktop" software that came with your PDA. This is the same software you use to synchronize your appointments, calendar, contacts, etc. and perform a back-up of your PDA to your computer. Consult the manuals that came with your PDA software for more details.

• In "Palm Desktop," click the button labeled "Install" or "Quick Install."
  

  A separate window will pop up. In this window, you choose files which will be installed on your Palm OS® PDA the next time you perform a HotSync operation.

• In the "Install" or "Quick Install" window, click "Add" to add a file.
  

  Your system will pop up an "Open" window so you can choose a file to install. The file you want to install (thaidict.prc) is on your desktop, so first you need to navigate to your desktop. Do this by clicking on the drop-down menu at the top of the "Open" window and selecting Desktop:

  

  Now you should see the file thaidict.prc. Click on the file and "Open:"

  

  The "Install" or "Quick Install" window should now list thaidict.prc as a file which will be installed on your handheld:

  

• If your "Install" window has an OK button, click OK. The application may remind you that these files will be installed next time you perform a HotSync operation.

Step 3: Perform a HotSync Operation

Connect your PDA to your desktop computer (if it is not already connected) and press the HotSync button on your PDA's cradle (if your PDA's cradle does not have a HotSync button, consult your PDA's manual to find out how to perform a HotSync operation).
