Use the Palm Flashcards to jog your memory and assess your level of knowledge for the CCNP exam. In response to high demand from our readers, we're including flashcards for PC, Pocket PC, and the Palm operating systems.

We're assuming that you have already installed the Palm software, that your Palm cradle is attached and working, and that you know how to HotSync or transfer files from your desktop computer to your Palm.

To locate the files, please go to the Flashcards folder, then follow the below directions:

  1. Locate the files you want to download. Palm files almost always have the following extensions or three letter characters after the name of the file: .prc or .pdb. If you see a file with one of these extensions (such as FlashcardDB.pdb), you can be sure that it is a Palm application.
  2. Click Start > Programs > Palm Desktop > Palm Install Tool and you will see a dialog box appear.
  3. Click Add and locate all files with .pdb extensions and the file named Sybex Flashcards.prc.
  4. Click Open.
  5. Click Done.
  6. Press the HotSync button on your Palm and the files that you identified will be transferred from the desktop to your Palm.

The newly installed program is ready to use, and when you tap on the Applications button on your Palm, it should appear on the screen.

Please install only one Sybex Flashcard set at a time. If you attempt to install flashcard programs from other Sybex companion CDs, or multiple sets from the same CD, the original application and database will be overwritten. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Note: You will need to install both the .pdb program(s) and Sybex Flashcards.prc for proper functionality. The Palm Flashcards have been tested on and are compatible with Palm 3.5.0 and later.
