Palm handheld devices used to be very popular in the late 90s and early 2000s.

They came with a suite of applications for desktop computers named Palm Desktop that could synchronize and manage the information stored in the Palm devices, like contacts, calendars, etc..

This PHP class provides a solution to access to the information stored in data files managed by the Palm Desktop applications.
