Personal Audio Link - PAL
by Michael E. Callahan aka Dr. File Finder
Personal Audio Link, or PAL, is a fascinating program thatputs you in control of all the information on your computer and more! Inthis age when information is so valuable, this is a program you'll wantto look at and try.
Keeping Up
It seems like we constantly have more information to deal with and moreways to obtain it. First there were the Personal DigitalAssistants or PDAs. Then cell phones. Then cell phonescombined with PDAs to create "smartphones". There are alsopagers, instant messengers, and "Skype" phones. Just carrying some ofthese things around, and the gear that goes with them, can be achallenge. Chargers, power cords, car chargers, batteries, carryingcases, and more.
Beyond carrying all the gear is trying to use it. Try looking at theweather forecast on your "smartphone" while driving 70 mph and you mayend up in a wreck. Trying to read your email on your smartphone maysound cool, but it's not really fun. I have big hands and it's no easytask to "type" on a keyboard that's maybe 3 inches wide. The folks whocreated PAL have realized this and their solution is nothingshort of brilliant.
Getting Information From Your "PAL"
Using PAL you get the information you need right from your computer. Allkinds of information. Personal Audio Link installs on yourcomputer and PAL asks if you want a VoIP phone number (at no charge)during the 45-day trial. If so, a private 10-digit phone number is auto-provisioned right into PAL, on the spot. It's fast and easy. There isno waiting. Now, your computer has a phone number and it's a gateway tolots of information.

You train PAL to recognize your voice. You can communicate with PALwhile sitting at your desktop or from any phone. For that reason,you can do a voice profile for "local" use and one for "remote" use. Todo both only takes about 5 minutes. Right from the beginning you can geta wide range of information, plus you can customize the information thatPAL has available.
From sitting in front of my computer OR from a thousand milesaway calling in from my cell phone I can have Adondo Personal AudioLink do things like:
I can drive in my car and deal with email, check on appointments, andget the latest news all without touching a button. I call my PersonalAudio Link "Friday" after the character in Robinson Crusoe.Yes, you can rename it to something you like. I can be sitting here atmy desk and get the same information, which means I can write thisarticle and hear the latest news. It makes me more efficient andit saves time.
I believe that Adondo Personal Audio Link is a wonderful way toget by with fewer gadgets. It's a great way to get information whiledoing other things, like driving or writing an article. Is itperfect? No, and "Friday" will even tell me that. Ahh, but it's beencarefully thought out and beautifully done. I use it all day long, toget information, to check email, to hear the news, and more, while I'mdoing other things. It makes my day easier. This is the wave of thefuture and Adondo Personal Audio Link is truly deserving of thetitle "Must Have Application". I'm alsoawarding it the "Editors Choice Award for excellence. Thisis a program you have to try. Download it and see what I mean!
