Plucker is a tool which can download information from the Web and store
it on your PalmOS device to be read later. (To read the pages on your
PalmOS device, you'll need a separate reader, contained in the Plucker
package.)

Don't forget to Suggests: plucker :)

Plucker Desktop is a visual content manager for Plucker.

Rationale: GUI is, for the common user, implied by "visual." Also, why
redefine Plucker?

(continuation of previous paragraph)
It allows you to configure and use Plucker using a friendly desktop
interface. You can quickly add and configure channels as well as send
your channels to the handheld.
