Merck Manual now available via PDA or wireless device  

Clinicians will now have access to the Merck Manual via a PDA or wireless device through Unbound Medicine, a provider of mobile healthcare information resources. The Merck Manual for Mobile Devices will be continuously updated, delivering bimonthly updates automatically to subscribers. The content is also optimized, so clinicians have the option of using a PDA or wireless devices such as a Treo, Smartphone, or BlackBerry. The new release includes the unabridged contents of the 18th edition of the Merck Manual, which covers primary care and family medicine, as well as areas such as psychiatry, pediatrics, alternative medicine, minor trauma, and gynecology. Yesterday, Merck announced MerckSource Doctor's Bag, a downloadable search engine that links users to the free health information available on MerckSource.com.
