While training try to avoid relying on electronic gimmick, focus on your manual skills! Everything else is distracting only.
For theory you can get some good electronic support, though, especially if you live in a country where exam software and original questionnaire are available. I remember some software from a company named Peters, which has the same training app as is the exam software later.
For practise you don't need no stinking software ;-). Once you have your license, you can get the whole suite of electronic brainextensions you want, but try first to learn the basic, b4 trying to cheat your self around by electronics use - my 5 cents.
