Abstract :
We report on two new portals for searching MEDLINE/PubMed with handheld devices, PICO (Patient, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome) and a WAP (Wireless Application Protocol) browser interface. Early user evaluation and user feedback will be discussed. We also include an updated report of user evaluation of established search tools for handheld devices included in the first release.
