The screenshot program that Gunther mentioned will definitely work if you
have no other option. However, if you're going to be doing a lot of PDA
screenshots, I suggest using the emulators that most companies provide to
developers. Someone already mentioned the PocketPC emulator; Palm OS also
has an emulator and simulator. You can download them from http://www.palmos.com/dev/tools/, along with documentation. Then you can
just use the Save Screen option or your favorite screen capture tool.
The Simulator (for Palm OS 5) comes with a ROM, which is the core software
package that runs on a device; the Emulator (for OS 4 and earlier) requires
that you install a ROM, which you can either grab from a working device, or
from the PalmSource web site (if you sign up for free developer area
access).
