Most of the screenshots are reduced to b/w images to save bandwidth.

	FileSearch is small Utility for PalmOS™ enabled devices to create a offline cache of the files from a memory card. You can search or browse through the files without draining the batteries due to the constant reading from the card. Main - Find - Browse

Don't forget to backup your data before using it.
Before using that piece of software make a complete backup of you device (and make sure that the restore will work !). I prefer pilot-xfer or BackupBuddy for that job.
Altough i am quite carefull, there might be a bug.

Tested on Palm OS 3.3, 3.4, 4.0 and 5.0.
