iSpin Launcher

iSpin Launcher by TapConnect is a legendary Palm OS launcher replacement famous for abandoning the standard PDA interface and going directly for a desktop-class "Microsoft Windows" or "Mac OS" look.

Weighing in at just under 500Kb, the registered version of iSpin Launcher provides a true multi-tasking desktop feel, complete with a Start menu, taskbar, and file explorer. By default, it replicates a tiny Windows XP machine, right down to the iconic green hills "Bliss" wallpaper.

This archive contains the registered/full version of the app rescued from the defunct TapTarget website via the Wayback Machine, alongside a massive collection of additional desktop themes (including Mac OS X, Red Hat Linux, Gnome, KDE, Matrix, and more).

💡 Pro-Tip: The Hidden Custom Wallpaper Trick

One of iSpin's best undocumented features is its drag-and-drop wallpaper support! If you want to use a custom JPEG as your desktop background without having to convert it into a Palm-native .pdb or .prc format: 1. Resize your custom .jpg image to your PDA's native screen resolution (e.g., 320x480 for a Tungsten TX). 2. Transfer the file to your SD card. 3. Open the built-in iSpin Explorer. 4. Navigate to your .jpg image, tap and hold the file, and drag and drop it directly onto the Desktop icon located in the bottom-right system tray! 5. iSpin will automatically apply your image as the custom wallpaper underneath your active theme.
