mon-euro for Palm OS (Palm, Visor, etc...)
also has brothers for Mac and PC.

During the early period of the introduction of the Euro, it will be possible to pay in local money and/or Euros, but the shopkeeper will be obliged to give change only in Euros; mon-euro will be your indispensable companion.

mon-euro can be used by both the customer and the shopkeeper; it should help to make relations more convivial.

After this period it can be used to convert back from Euros for simple comparison.

It has been designed to facilitate rapid use, thanks to the "Drag-Do-it" technology by DouWère; this technology allows you to select and modify numbers very rapidly with only a few slight movements. (See the animation).

mon-euro is shareware. Your participation is 12 Euros ex.VAT.

Once installed on your PDA, mon-euro firstly presents an "Aid" window to explain how numbers are created and deleted.
(See the animation).
The first time used mon-euro invites you to choose a local currency. A simple tap on the relevant ISO currency and it's done.
The mon-euro screen is divided into Three sections:

The top section is for the "Price to pay" in Euros and the
equivalent in the local currency you have activated.
(This illustration uses the French Franc (FRF)).
The middle section is for the "money you have given" or are going to give in either and/or both Euro and local currency. The first line is for Euros and the second for local currency.
The bottom section shows the "Change in Euros" you will get back (or what is left for you to pay , if the amount is negative).
Getting started step by step:

You have made a purchase for 6,90 Euros.

Tap on the first "0" and drag your stylus slightly upwards
until the "6" appears.
Tap on the second "0" and drag up until the "9" appears.
Immediately you know that the equivalence is 45,26 FRF
You wish to pay only in the local currency:

You have five, ten Franc pieces in your pocket.

Enter "50,00" FRF on the second line of the middle section.
You will immediately see that this is equal to 7,62 Euros.

The shopkeeper will give you 0,72 Euros in change!
You wish to pay with a mixture of Euros and local currency:
Enter your "1" Euro and your "40" FRF in the middle section.
You immediately see that this adds up to 7,10 Euros and that the shopkeeper will give you 0,20 Euros in change.
Shortcuts and other functions:

If you have entered an amount of Euros in the middle section and you want to know the difference in local currency, tap on the local currency sign in this middle section.
Here the result is 38,70 FRF.
