I have found the best computer program I have *ever* used--Biblereader for the Palm PDAs (as well as smartphones).
They also have versions for most every cell phone in existence.
I have owned over a half dozen Palms (m100, IIIc, Sony Clie, Palm TX, lifedrive) and just recently switched to the Blackberry Curve. They just released Biblereader 4 for the Blackberry with storage card, and it is awesome.
If you ever want to know *where* in the Bible that verse or word is, you simply type in the word and hit search (you can pick which book or range of books too!).
For example, I searched the entire Bible for the word "grace" and it gave me a complete list of 131 occurences *in 14 seconds.*
Has anyone here used this?

Has anyone here used this?For probably about 6 years now on several PocketPCs. The Greek references (OT Septuagint and the NT) are great also because I don't have to carry my laptop everywhere I go. Haven't tried the Hebrew as of yet.

A kindred spirit! (In the Lord, of course)
Can you search the OT Septuagint by Strong's number, or find Strong's numbers in the Septuagint?
If every Christian dug their old Palm out of their desk drawer, recharged it, put Biblereader on it and used it (even just in the bathroom) or gave it away, the world would be a godlier place!

So do you actually know Greek, or just the transliteration (I.e. "Agape")?
I plan on writing more in days/weeks to come.
