Ratings PalmGear 5 from 5 stars Handango 5 from 5 stars palmOne 5 from 5 stars This is what enthusiastic pointUSA users say Beautiful color and easy to use with my Tungsten T3. The quiz is great for fine tuning your American trivia. Great for quizing your friends. The graphics are very well done. The state flags are blowing in the wind! I had been looking for a user-friendly geography program, and I was so pleased to discover the pointWorld/USA bundle. I love the graphics and the world clocks. And I especially love the different ways you can access the state/country information - either by pointing at the map, scrolling through the list of names, or even using my Zire joystick to scroll through the entries. The screen layout is very efficient with lots of interesting info packed into a small area, and it doesn't take up too much memory. It's a wonderful educational program for the price. I love this software because it makes learning about US geography so much fun. I thought the software did a great job putting a lot of info on the small screen, and I like that you can quiz yourself. Great graphics and easy to install. Good value!
