PDA Dive Planning Software

Craig69 · 15th February 2008, 12:20

I'm need some decent dive planning software for my PDA but would like to seek some recommendations as many of the versions out there don't do trial versions in a Windows Mobile format.

So far I have seen the desktop versions of Vplanner and GAP (but only when I was on open circuit so haven't used them for CCR planning) and like both but I wondered if there were any others that clearly stood out as the best, specifically in PDA format.

As a must I would like one that will calculate my open circuit requirements if I bail out at the worse point in the dive and that doesn't use GF's to calculate deco as both myself and my buddy use VR3's so I would like to generate back up run times that are similar to the VR3 profiles that we are used to.

Thanks,

Craig.

JDeco - Dive Decompression Software for JAVA Mobile Devices (Buhlmann and VPM-B) works on phones and PDAs

Another vote for V-Planner, yet again. Does all that stuff and more. Works on my SPV M3100 (a badged version of HTC Herm100).

Works well.

Using V-planner for my PDA (HTC TyTn) and PC.

I've got JDECO working on my phone now so I'll play with that. I think I'll also look at Vplanner as well.

I looked at using XS but my PDA is Windows Mobile, not Palm OS, so I think that option is out.

Thanks.
