It has been 3 years that I resisted temptation to get a new PDA, mainly because my Sony Clie PEG-NX60 did such a great job with my daily routine that it simply wasn't necessary for another incremental improvement for a significant expense. Well, things change, and while I would not consider... Read full review »

My teenage daughter has been bugging me for months now to get her a laptop or PDA so she could use it for her school work. I guess I waited a bit too long to get her one before school got out since she has less than two weeks to go before summer vacation. I decided that the laptop was going to be... Read full review »

Cons Occasional crashes; no access to applications in drive mode

I was very excited when I heard that a new Palm was coming out. Since I got my first m100 six years ago, I've watched developments with interest. Over the period, I've upgraded to the m505 and the Tungsten T. I was tempted by the Tungsten T3 but in the end decided that my old T was still enough for... Read full review »

"Write what you know." While most people cannot agree on the original author of this time-worn phrase, many agree that it is the best way to authentically express oneself. All arguments aside, I generally subscribe to this theory when it comes to product reviews. I know ALL ABOUT Palm PDA devices... Read full review »

This was my first PDA purchase. I did a lot of research before buying this one, and ,from looks ,it probably is by far the best deal for the price. 4GB of memory, wi-fi, bluetooth, mp3 capability, video, internet. It's got it all. But I was not impressed with most of it. The wi-fi didn't always... Read full review »

I bought this PDA (my first) for use in nursing school. I do use it frequently for accessing databases while working in the hospital. I was also surprised to use it frequently for playing games during down time (i.e., waiting for an oil change), although I am not a gamer. During other situations... Read full review »

When I decided to buy a new PDA, I did my research. Using www.pcworld.com, www.consumerreports.com, and www.amazon.com, I narrowed it down to the Dell Axim 53v and Palm LifeDrive. I actually went to the mall to hold the Dell (they have a Dell stand.) I went to Comp USA to check out the LD (hey, it... Read full review »
