  • JugIcon is the FIFTH incarnation of my "famous" juggling icon and is my first programming attempt on the PalmPilot. You can drag it around and adjust the speed. Eye candy, that's all.

  • Press the "Page Up" and "Page Down" hardware buttons to speed up and slow down the animation speed.
  • Menu items: Faster, Slower, About.
  • Info page (accessible from the About box) with a history of the juggler.
  • Yup, that's all it does!
