Leverage, Balcones Software's database for Newton devices, has shown that a powerful yet easy to use database makes the Newton almost indispensable.  Leverage users all over the world have found they don't have to leave their information on their desks. Whether it's a grocery list or a many thousand record inventory, Leverage is equal to the task, making it, in the words of PDA Developers, "...the application of choice". As Pen Computing Magazine put it, Leverage is "amazingly powerful and versatile...a real database" and IN Magazine called it a standout.  In a recent review of Leverage 3.0, Pen Computing Magazine simply said, ``If you use FileMaker Pro and a Newton, buy it!"

Very easy database creation and query definition, simple data exchange with desktop applications, and excellent performance were some of the highlights of Leverage release 1.

With release of the Newton 2.0 operating system, Leverage was further enhanced to take advantage of the advanced features of Apple's award winning operating system.

Leverage 2.0 improvements included support for synchronization with FileMaker Pro for the Macintosh and Microsoft Access for Windows.  Users can duplicate a desktop database in Leverage, make changes on their desktop or on their Newton, and then resynchronize the data in a matter of minutes.

Now, with the release of Leverage 3.0, Balcones Software has placed even more power in the palm of your hand. New features of Leverage version 3 include:

• support for Newton stationery,
• easier calculated fields,
• improved relational capabilities such as split screen view,
• more flexible printing,
• easier navigation, and
• enhanced programmability.
