You have my permission to include DoubleDown on your CD. I'm not sure what a .DIZ file is that you mention below. I normally distribute a .ZIP file, which includes the .prc file to transfer to the Palm Pilot, as well as a documentation file. If you do not have the .ZIP file already, you can download it from:
I also have two other products you may be interested in including. CaribStud is a Caribean Stud poker game. It rated four stars from ZDnet and 4 airplanes from PilotZone. It is at:
The other program is LetItRide, which is a Palm Pilot implementation of the Let It Ride casino stud poker game. It rated five stars from ZDnet, at can be found at:
Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.

Dear Michael,
I am currently putting together a games CD titled "100 Great Palm Pilot Games".
Double Down would be an excellent addition for this project. We have produced several top selling Shareware, Demo-ware and Freeware compilation CDÆs with great success. We also produce and license full version Products for the categories Education, Entertainment, Lifestyle and Leisure, Business and Utilities and our Great Series.
Our other 100 Great Series titles include "100 Great Action Arcade Games Vol. 3", "100 Great Games for Windows 98", "350 Great Games" and "100 Great Educational Games Vol. 2". These games are distributed through thousands of retail stores across Canada and the US. This is a great way to gain exposure for your programs. The series will be available as both a box and CD ROM product.
Before we can include your program on the CD we need your approval. Your reply to this email signifying your approval will allow us to include your shareware on the disc.
Our CD-ROMs feature a custom installation program that displays the name of your program along with a screen shot, your Web Site address and your .DIZ file. It lets the user run your install program and gives them the option of viewing the program documentation. To make sure that we are giving the customer the best CD possible, we would encourage you to send us or direct us to the latest version of your program. If you have a screen shot available that best shows off your software we would appreciate a copy.
If you have developed any other shareware, demo-ware or freeware games, that you think we might be interested in, please let us know. We are always looking for new and exciting games.
Thank you very much for your cooperation. I look forward to your reply.
If you have any questions you can call me directly at 905 738 5645 Ext.240
