Software to go if you must work while on holiday

120px-Woman-typing-on-laptop.jpg

Far be it from me to encourage you to work while you're on vacation, but . . .

If you absolutely must toil while you broil, Download.com has gathered together a nice brief collection of software that will ease the pain. Or at least help you complete your tasks with dispatch and get back to your inflatable pool lounge.

Many of these tools were new to me, but I can attest that one of them. Documents to Go, works as advertised. (It displays several common file types like .doc and .xls on most mobile devices and, even better, permits you to create and edit them.)

Download.com neglects to nag you, so I will: Slathers of sunscreen, please, and keep the work to a minimum. You deserve a holiday!

Janet:

To be honest I have been using Docs to Go for a couple of years now. I went back to school after 25 years and find my memory is not what it used to be (hmmm?). Well I put all my notes, papers and power point presentations on my palm so I always have them with me. Some places I was even able to "beam" my papers to a computer or printer to get a hardcopy then and there. Personally, I love this software and can't wait until I can get it on my BB Pearl.
