Registration
Shareware is a marketing method, not a type of software or even strictly just a distribution method. When software is marketed through normal retail channels, you are forced to pay for the product before you've even seen it. The Shareware marketing method lets you try a program before you buy it. Since you've tried the program, you know whether it will meet your needs before you pay for it. A Shareware program is just like a program you find in major stores, catalogs, and other places where software is purchased; except you get to use it, on your own computer, before paying for it.
The Planetarium software you find on the internet is fully functional. If you install it on your Palm it will run as demo version and will give you plenty of time to try it out and check if you like it. After a while it will begin to show a remainder screen at program start to convince you either to register it or to remove it again from the Palm. If you decide to register, you will receive a registration code which you enter into the program. This will convert the program into the registered version and disable all remainder screens.
When you register you will get a registraion code you can enter into Planetarium that disables the reminder screens, so you can fully enjoy the program. The shareware fee is not very high compared to the amount of functionality you get. We are not a big company with high administrative overhead. This allows us to give you the software for a very competitive price (€24). However, we need some revenue to be able to continue developing software and supporting our users.
The price for Planetarium is EUR 24. You can purchase Planetarium in a variety of ways:
- Online with credit card
This is the simplest and fastest way, because you'll immediately receive the registration key. The registration pages are secured to protect your credit card information. Click on one of the pictures below to go directly to the registration pages.

- Other forms of payment
If you don't want to send your credit card details through the internet there are other ways. Go to ShareIt.com via
this link, then you can choose from several options like check or wire transfer for example.
- Directly with me
If you live in Switzerland I can give you the number of my bank account. Money transfers from other countries will cost you a very high fee, so the best thing would probably be to send cash. Please contact me first (
) so I can give you my postal address. I'm sorry that I cannot accept any checks because the local banks here deduct such a high fee for cashing them that it doesn't make any sense at all.
