New for 2003 we are releasing a PDF version for the Pocket PC and Palm Pilot. This will allow the Mini Profiles to be carried around on these PDA devices. The Requirements are that Adobe Acrobat Reader is installed on the device. This PDF file has information from Fall 2002 and Fall 2003 and 1 and 5 year % changes for quick access to these statistics.

Instructions:

The Adobe Acrobat Reader can be installed from the Adobe Acrobat Reader website. Select the Language, type of Operating System, either Pocket PC or Palm OS, and then the connection speed and click Download. After the file is downloaded open the file, this is a self installing file, next time the device is synchronized the program will be installed.

Now Download Mini Profiles Pocket PC and Palm Pilot Version by right clicking the link and choosing the Save Target As.. option (if you are on a Macintosh, hold down the Control key and click the mouse). Next transfer the file to the PDA device. Consult the User manual of the specific device for instructions. For Palm Pilots this will be referred to as a Hot Sync, and for Pocket PC users this will be referred to as Active Sync. Find the location of the file on the PDA device and open it, now you have access to the Mini Profiles wherever you go. When the file is transferred to the PDA device, make sure that the Reflow option is turned on, this will make the PDF easier to read on a PDA device
