“You may download a trial version beta version of WordSmith
Public Beta.
The beta version will allows for 200 editing
sessions. … WordSmith requires Palm OS 3.0 or better.”

“WordSmith is available for purchase during the beta period for
$19.95, a 50% savings from the suggested retail price of $39.95.
The final 1.0 version will, of course, be a free upgrade to those
who purchase during the beta period. Additionally, we will be
extending a discount on WordSmith to our existing customers.”

“Please note that WordSmith currently does not support
non-western languages. Support for this will be implemented by the
second quarter of 2001. We are currently working on a MacOS
synchronization conduit. The final version will be available
during the first week of January, 2001.”

[ The Linux version is listed as being for Red Hat 6.0+ – LT
ed. ]
