IIRC, that was what I used back in the day. No idea what app I used but 
I do have at least one old Palm Pilot in a box somewhere that may or may 
not work. :/

I do think it exports to most major formats, I just haven't had to think 
about it in so long that I don't know which one is the best to use or 
what viewer apps are out there.
