P2Snippets is a note-taking application for the Palm Pre brought to you by the same folks that developed the previously reviewed P2GoogleVoice. This app is better-designed and more suable than that Google Voice app. Creating a new note or snippet is done by tapping on the button found to the bottom left of your screen. You can pick a category, enter a title, and input the text contents of your snippet. Your snippets are displayed on the homescreen of the application when you launch it. Deleting a snippet is done by swiping across the snippet to reveal “Delete” and “Cancel” buttons.

The snippet entry view has some interesting elements: you can automatically enter today’s date and current time with a simple tap on the relevant option. This lets you tag your snippets by date and time . You can also add configurable variables to your snippets easily. Existing snippets can be edited by tapping on the snippet icon to the right of the title. There is no search or other way to filter your existing snippets, which is odd given that you’d probably want to search snippets by date or custom tags. Overall, the purpose behind the app is a little confusing and the functionality is a mix of a paste-board utility and a note-taking app.
