(The two versions work in the same way with a few differences, see Other features)
Both Windows and Mac editions can be synchronized with  handheld devices using Palm OS™ 4.1-5.x (16 MB RAM): not tested.
The Palm version is not a full EndNote on the Palm. It is a small application to make your references available away from your main computer, with limited editing capacity. It has no: change reference types; CWYW manuscript formatting; scan paper; Z39.50 searching; print; import; export; changing styles, etc. You can make simple changes to references such as adding records and data, and do very simple searching.
Adding notes is done in an independent entry window instead of in a separate field, this is a Palm standard. The field information will be plain text when it is synchronized back to the PC.
No back compatibility to  versions lower than 8 for  data like records and citation styles (filters and connections at risk).
