Exactly -- I have the same PDA, and first thought I was lucky to see Pocket
Fritz running, only to discover that it hangs on exit.  Unfortunately, Pocket
Grandmaster doesn't work either, however, they are working on it -- I heard back
within hours of my email.

On the plus side with PocketGrandmaster, you can at least d/l and try first to
make sure it works.
