NS Basic/Palm
by NS Basic Corporation
>>
Read Review (Rating 5/5) <<
For under $100 with no runtime royalties, NS Basic/Palm is in a class by itself. Save for a few UI glitches and stylistic issues, it�s an excellent product. If you know BASIC, you�ll feel right at home. If you've programmed for the Pilot in C, you�ll find that NS Basic�s built in functions mirror the PalmSDK�s quite accurately.

Best $100 I ever spent. |
Easy to use if you have had any exposure to VB. Had my first small app up and running in an hour. Now the fun begins.

Have a try at HB++ instead |
HB++ (www.handheld-basic.com) goes much further than NSB in terms of power and ease of development. HB++ is free for non-commercial use (your app will start with a "nag screen") and has a strong developer community.

It sure beats fighting with C |
Get NSBasic if you want to write some quick code, don't want to learn (or hassle with) C, and/or have experience with Visual Basic. It has some rough edges and the manual (while good as a command reference) lacks examples, especially for database programming. On the plus side, I has my first program working on my Visor two hours after opening the box NSBasic was shipped in. In C it would have taken me two days!

Why have a runtime when you don;t need it? |
Bought NS/Basic, gave it a week, found that I have the same learning curve as CASL, and with the new CASL compiler (which is significantly less expensive also!) I don't need a run-time, it compiles directly to a PRC file.
Also, the ability to use C libraries if I want to means that anything that can be done in C can be done in CASL, but without any of the C headaches.
Give casl a try, http://www.caslsoft.com/

BUY IT |
I love the program and find that the support that the team at NSBasic gives is the best. I usually get helped in 12 hours from reporting a problem

Incredible |
I've been using NSBasic for a while now - after investigating using CodeWarrior and learning C to get stuff done, NSBasic is an excellent, much simpler, cost effective alternative.
