What is Backlite+?

Backlite+ is a system utility for EPOC palmtops. Originally released in September 1997, Backlite+ has become one of the most popular note taking applications for the Series 5 and is now in the top ten of registered applications for Psion computers.

What can Backlite+ do for you?

Backlite+ is the command center of your EPOC machine. It controls the backlight allowing it to come on during specific times, and is the only backlight control tool that can make the backlight behave in relation to sunset/sunrise times. Combine this with battery checking whenever you switch on via graphical or text messages, battery warnings when your main or backup batteries are low, and reminders of Voice note recordings on powerup and you have an invaluable application. But that's not all....

In addition to it's system tools, Backlite+ plus is a fully fledged note taker, being the first to combine a pen based notepad with Postit(tm) style sticky notes that you can paste on your PDA screen. Create multiple notes overlaying each other at different zoom levels. You can re-size them, hide and show them and even make them float over other applications.

This is the battery check message. You can configure this to let you know about the batteries whenever you power on.

If all this wasn't enough, you can also define Hotkey macros that can be launched by pressing a key combination such as CTRL+FN+A or CTRL+FN+AGENDA. With Hotkey macros you can launch applications, documents, and run special Backlite+ commands like adding a sticky note.

Backlite+ was the first real power application for EPOC and still remains the most popular shareware application of it's kind.

So how do you get it and how much is it?

It couldn't be simpler! You can download and use Backlite+ for free for an unlimited amount of time. You can use every feature except you won't be able to switch on the Backlight automatically when AC power is connected, and you can't turn off the jotpad (so your sticky notes appear ontop of other applications).

Backlite+ is available from the EPOC+Plus download page. You can also check out all the other PocketIQ applications and download Backlite+ by visiting them now. Click here to go to PocketIQ site. Backlite+ can be registered online from PocketIQ.
