Metro 5.6.8 (for Palm OS)
Metro 5.6.8 (for Palm OS)
Metro is your FREE guide to public transport systems worldwide (more than 250 cities covered).
The ZIP is the full "occidental" package for PalmOS. The standalone PRC is the English application (does not include data files). See the developer's site for additional versions and details about specific cities and areas covered.
Install one of the program files, ie metro-en.prc, and at least one city from the zipped file.

readymade: Problems? After unzipping, you have to drag the metro.en file into PalmOne QuickInstall. Then go into the All folder in the application and choose your cities and drag those into QuickInstall. There are no maps, but there's lots of information.
discourse: great for its target market.
xoxo: not really wordlwide....hook the Caribbean up with this man.
adelagarza: Fantastic app!!! I've used it many times and works quite easy and fast. Schedules are always updated...
Aloft: Used to love this on a Palm system ... but on MS Mobile = it doesn't work ... unless I messed up the download (which is not a straight-forward thing to do)
pjotr: Help! I downloaded .prc program and a city .pdb to the card in my treo, but the program still says:' no city installed....
What to do know?
D14BL0: This is one of the best programs I've seen for the Palm platform yet. It's so quick to give you directions, because the information is all stored locally, so it doesn't have to gather data from a server or anything like that.
I really wish I knew this program existed during my trip to Chicago a few weeks ago. This would've been very helpful.
The fact that something this intuitive is 100% free is mind-boggling, as well. I've seen software that does LESS than MetrO and costs upwards of $10. Excellent program. I recommend this to anybody who uses a Palm device, even if they don't travel.
bonaocity2: how do I make this program to work on my treo680.. I'm new at this and I don't know how to make this program work. thanks
sundunce: very good!
gvoyager: Great for my visits to London and Paris!!! Love it
