Several times in The Palmtop Paper I have seen references to the Random House Webster's Electronic Dictionary and Thesaurus. You mention that you have placed it on a PC Card for use in your Palmtop. I am writing to see if you could suggest sources I might try to find this product.
I am currently using HP's Dictionary/Thesaurus Card (HP F1005A), but it is somewhat limited. I have called Random House, Novell, Word Perfect, and several software dealers. No one seems to have the Random House Webster's Electronic Dictionary and Thesaurus software nor do they know who has the license for it. Can you tell me where I might find this product?

[Unfortunately the Random House Webster's Electronic Dictionary and Thesaurus is no longer available. You might find it is in a discontinued software bin or from a mail order company that sells discontinued or surplus software.
There is a program called Writer's Toolkit available from Surplus Software while supplies last (price $12.99, phone: 800-753-7877, fax: 541-386-4227). This older DOS version comes with the American Heritage Electronic Dictionary, tested previously on the Palmtop, and six other DOS reference tools that have not been tested, but may work on the Palmtop -- Paul.]
