Keep Track of Your Collectibles
If you are a collector, you can use MemoPad or a specialized utility to manage your hobby.
If you’re a collector of anything from books to Precious Moments figurines, you may have a hard time keeping track of what you have in your collection and what you still need to acquire. Fortunately this task can be greatly simplified with a Palm Powered handheld. You can keep it simple and use a variety of Memo Pad entries, or you can use a more specialized application to track everything from what you have in your collection to how much you paid for it and an estimation of current value.
MemoPad
If you have a relatively small or uncomplicated collection, you may find that the built-in MemoPad is all you need to keep things under control. You can have up to 15 categories of memos, so you can create a separate category for each collection or you can have one Collectibles category. You can then use individual MemoPad entries for groups of items, say books by the same author, or Hallmark ornaments organized by year. This method isn’t going to work for an incredibly large collection, but if you just want to make sure you don’t purchase duplicate DVDs, this is a good method to use. Even better, when you get information about something you want to purchase you can add the relevant information to the MemoPad, so the next time you’re shopping you’ll have everything you need to make the best addition to your collection.
