-CacheMate comes with an external program for converting your gpx files ([[pocket queries]] use this format) into a format that can be uploaded to your palm.  It is called cmconvert and is very simple to use.  After you run cmconvert, you merely sync your palm device using the software that came with it, and then run CacheMate on the palm when that is done.  CacheMate will detect the new cache information and merge it into the database on your Palm device.
