Transferring Las Vegas VP Database to Palm PDA?

Just curious if anyone has suggestions for an efficient method of
transferring the Las Vegas VP database to a Palm. While I realize
that I could copy and paste the casino entries into a single or
multiple memos, I'm curious if anyone has come up with a faster way to
do this, or if anyone has already created a Palm or Word document that
they would be willing to share with the group. In thiking ahead to my
April trip, I realized that it would be handy to be able to reference
the database if I had it stored in my Palm. Thanks!

Since the database is always changing, your best bet is to get internet access on your Palm so you can check it live. As an alternative, you could download just the LV Index page, rather than each and every casino's page.
   
  It would be nice to have the database stored in true database format that could be downloaded in one fell swoop, rather than individual web pages, if it's not too much of a burden for the administrator to maintain. I'm not sure if Yahoo Groups offer an easy database feature or if it has to be completely done by hand.

I recommend creating a personal channel in AvantGo. If you have a Palm
you probably already have an AvantGo account. If not sign up for an
account at avantgo.com; they're free. Just create a personal channel
for the LV index page with a link depth of 1 and a maximum channel
size of 500K.
