Cyrillic on a PDA - Palm/Mac?

[Eliot Borenstein]

I use Cyrillic both on my Mac and my Treo (which runs Palm OS), but I
have yet to get to the point where Cyrillic transfers back and forth
without any problem.  On my PDA, I've used both Piloc (which costs some
small amount of money) and CyrHack II (which is free).  Lately I've
been using CyrHack II because it worked better on the Treo initially.
Piloc can be found at:

CyrHackII can be found at:

The makers of Piloc also sell several different kinds of
Russian/English dictionaries for the Palm, and they've worked very well
for me.  FYI, they also have dictionaries and font software for many
other languages, including a wide variety of Slavic languages.

I suspect there is a way to sync back and forth without losing the
Cyrillic---I've never looked into it, since it hasn't been that
important to me.  But the CyrHack page has lots of forums and FAQs
(http://www.enlight.ru/pilot/index.phtml)  that could be useful, and
