I've always been a proponent for using Pocket PCs in "real work" scenarios, and while we have appropriate hardware for doing so, the software is always the clincher. Pocket Tycoon seems to be an interesting business tool for analyzing opportunities. Now if only I had a few million-dollar opportunities to analyze!
"Pocket Tycoon is your "back-of-the-envelope" business idea evaluator! With Pocket Tycoon, you can quickly assess your idea's value-creating potential in a structured manner. Pocket Tycoon provides a wealth of capabilities that make business idea assessment and planning convenient, fun, and effective. Pocket Tycoon's combination of Pocket PC ease of use, powerful analytics, and effective value indicators allow effort-less application of standard business analysis techniques while brainstorming and developing your business ideas. The overall benefit will be more objective and comprehensive assessment of the value-creating potential of all of your business ideas -- which will allow you to quickly identify and focus on your true million-dollar opportunities! Key features include easy modeling of:
• Startup requirements and Initial Investment
