Tam Hanna is a well known Palm blogger and contributor to several Palm based forums and news sites. Under the name of Tamoggemon Software, he has created a product which is inteded to make life easier for a Palm user that docks their handheld on a frequent basis. AutoSync is a multi-functional utility that peforms several functions when it detects your Palm is docked in the cradle or charger. These functions can be individually enabled or disabled. They include:

1. AutoSync will automatically start the Hotsync process when your Palm when is connected to the cradle.
2. AutoSync will allow you to set specific settings with regards to IR (Infrared receiving), sound and screen brightness.

AutoSync is a simple and easy program to run. No frills here, but that is not its purpose. It does what it is supposed to and does it well. If you find yourself always hot syncing your Palm when you dock it (or always forget to hot sync your Palm) and/or would prefer to have different sound and screen settings when the Palm is in the cradle, I would recommend giving AutoSync a try. It just may make your life a little easier.

AutoSync will work on newer Palm handhelds. I have tested and ran it fine on my Palm T3. AutoSync is shareware with a 14 day evaluation period. If you decide to register it a copy can be purchased at Palmgear.
