So I got this new Treo 800w and for you that need something with it’s features I find it to be a good device. But I was searching around for a good compatible Bible reader program at a fair price. I found FREE to be a very compelling price point 😀 . I mean with Windows Mobile, there are so many free software packages at sites like Freewarepocketpc.net, there was no point looking “high end” in terms of price for Bibles to read on the Pocket PC. In my searching of various sites, I eventually found Pocket e-Sword and I must say, for the price of free, it’s better than many if not all of the fee based packages I was considering.

You can get the reader program and many Bibles and Bible tools for the Pocket PC on this page, but you need to have the Pocket e-Sword (the reader program) installed first. I mean what can beat trying the full featured package for free 😀 ? Some Bible versions and tools are fee based, but I’ve found any fees are cheaper than the cost of those same versions using other Pocket PC software. So Pocket e-Sword is a big time value, even for things that have a small fee attached.

There is a Windows desktop version of the software I have never tried, but it’s available at the site’s main front page, also free.

Now given most of the software is given freely, the site owner humbly request that donations be given, to help keep the site online. (Anything fee based on the site is because the copyright holders of that content make it so and the associated fees for that content are to pay them.) If you use and enjoy the software, consider the donation page, to help keep a good thing going.
