Hey Guys,
For the iPhone and Palm OS users out there... I found an interesting app called CaliperTool. Basically it does measurement conversions between metric & inches. It will also list the closest drill bits above and below the measurement you enter. Drill bit sizes are listed in standard, letter, and number sizes. Every now and then I find a need to look up a drill bit size and see if I have anything comparable. Usually I have to go hunting for my reference chart, but for 99 cents I'll give CaliperTool a try.
I was actually hunting for a different app when I ran across this one so I don't know anything about the developer or the accuracy of his data. I'm just point out a potentially useful tool in case someone else might find it useful.
Here is a link to the app on his website if you want to check it out:
