A review of PPC Study Bible

Pocket PCs are hand-held personal digital assistant devices which use the Windows Mobile Classic operating system. There are thousands of programs for the Pocket PC and the Windows Classic OS, many of which can be obtained for free. Pocket PC owners can find many Bible reading and Bible study programs for the device as well, which allow owners to study the Bible while commuting, traveling or in any situation where they have a few spare minutes. This article provides you a review of the different kinds of PPC Study Bibles.

Berean Bible Study features several freeware Bible programs, many of which work with Pocket PCs. PPC users can download the English Standard Version, the Bible in Basic English, the King James Version and the World English Bible. Berean supports and updates its software regularly, and users are free to download as many translations as they like. Some versions, such as the King James and the Bible in Basic English, are available as "starter kits," easy-to-install, self-contained bundles with executable files and documentation.

Pocket eSword

One of the best-known pieces of electronic Bible software is eSword. ESword bible is designed by Rick Meyers and supported by user donations. Meyers also developed the Pocket eSword for PDAs and phones running Pocket PC 2003 and 2003E and Windows Mobile 5 and 6. In order to work, phones and PDAs must also have a touchscreen feature. As of 2010, Meyers was no longer updating or supporting the software, but all Pocket eSword files are available for free download at the eSword site.
