I went through an entrepreneurship program at my university where I got to boss around a bunch of underclassmen to have them do my dirty work. For example, one of my "virtual employees" put together our website; another one did market research. Luckily this means any problems you guys find with my product, I can just shift the blame ^_^. Anyway, my "virtual company" focused on developing educational software, and although we didn't develop this program nearly as much as I had hoped, it's still worth getting some feedback as to whether or not I should develop it further.
Total Recall is essentially a cramming tool. It allows for hand-written digital flashcards that can be reviewed at a later time. (This particular alpha release was used for a proof-of-concept demonstration in which we wanted each new users' session to overwrite past sessions, so decks can not be edited or expanded between quiz sessions at this time.)
Basic quiz operation: Top screen displays one side of a flash card. When you think you've "got it", simply tap the touchscreen to reveal the answer. The L button progresses to the next card. REACTION TIME IS KEY! As a cramming tool, the program keeps track of which cards you are slowest at, and these cards will come up more frequently. There is no way to indicate right/wrong response at this time... if you have absolutely no clue on an answer, just wait a long time so it knows you're unconfident.
Currently, the program is not suitable for long-term use, but if I get enough feedback, I might expand it, at least beyond this premature development phase. Oh, and I've only tested it on a DS-X, so I can't guarantee the FAT32 support is all there.

I will replace the link with a zip file containing the other format soon.
