====== Introduction ======

Pocket Drake is a freeware application for Windows Mobile devices designed to do paperless Geocaching.

If you wonder where the name came from, here is explanation: cacher in czech sounds like "kačer" and it is duck male, i.e. drake :-)

PocketDrake is designed for **off-line work, ie. without internet connection**. It's possible to download data on-line, but this possibility is meant as a tool for quick update not as main way of program usage. **Cache data is downloaded as GPX file, it means, user has to be Premium Member to be able to use this feature.**

Support of new operating systems:
  * there is **<fc #FF0000>no Android version</fc>**. 
  * there is **<fc #FF0000>no Windows Phone 7 version</fc>** and it is not planned in the future.
