What is it:

Individual Masechtot of Mishna with Bartenura in split screens
.

Learn Mishnayos on your organizer wherever you are.

Read the instructions below for obtaining your copy via e-mail.

Each Mishna is clearly marked and easily accessible.

To see what it looks like on your Palm Pilot, look at the screen sample to your left.

Why do I need it:

Imagine sitting in the train on your way to work and having the ability to learn Mishna with Bartenura.

Or what if someone is late for an appointment with you. wouldn't it be nice to have something with you that easy to learn for a few minutes?

Imagine what you can accomplish by utilizing all those "spare" moments that usually go to waste?

And all this can be done without "shlepping" along a whole shas.

Can I try it first?


Yes. When you download the Masechet, it will have limited functionality, but will give you a good idea of how it works.

You will need the 3 items we mention below to view it.


Try it for a while just to see if you have installed the necessary programs correctly and to determine that you are comfortable reading from a Palm Pilot.

       
   

What do I need first?

You need a Palm Pilot first of course. It doesn't need a lot of memory, the most basic model like the new m100 is fine, although you might want to splurge and get a model with more memory. This will allow you to have more Seforim with you.

You need to get "Hebrew Support" from www.penticon.com.This is the program that makes your Palm Pilot display Hebrew characters. They have two models, Hebrew Lite and Hebrew Plus. Any one of these is ok. (The Hebrew Lite costs less)

You need the program that will actually read the material we send you. This type of program is called a "Doc reader". The one that is required for our Mishna with Bartenura is Esh Reader. It is available by clicking on the "Download Esh Reader" and "Register Esh Reader" links above. The Esh Reader itself costs $19.99.

IF YOU DON'T HAVE OR WANT ESH READER, YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO READ THE FILE.


Finally, you need to have Winzip installed on the computer you use to connect to your Palm Pilot.
Winzip is available free from www.winzip.com.
This program is needed because we send the material in a compressed format to save time and memory. Winzip "extracts" the files when needed.
