Pocket Cook for the P800 is a MobileVB program that acts as a recipe database. The software has upto 4000 recipes available for dwonload and has search and shopping list functions.

This is one of the best MobileVB powered program available. This si exactly the sort of thing that MobileVB is good for - converting relatively simple function apps to the P800 from other platforms. However just because its simple (the idea of a recipe book is not new) it does not means its good. While some MobileVB apps leave a lot to be desired in function and price this is a genuinely useful program and a must for any cooking fan.

The software is available via Handango and the authors website.
