Axioms of Handhelds

Date of Review:  Sep 13, 1999
Review: You're thinking about buying a Palm V? After using both the III and a V for about six months each, I've developed a few rules.

1. THE PALM'S VALUE IS PROPORTIONAL TO THE AMOUNT USED SQUARED.
This rule relates to the Metcalfe's Law (the...

Postpone Upgrading to Palm V

Date of Review:  Oct 4, 1999
Review: I fell in love with the Palm V when I first saw it, and decided that eventually, I would "trade-up" from my Palm Pilot (that's right, it's not even backlit). So what's stopping me?

First, what I really want is to integrate the functions of...

so sleek!

Date of Review:  Feb 29, 2000
Review: Although the Palm V is basically the Palm III in an upgraded casing, if you're into aesthetics, the extra cost is worth it. The anodized aluminum casing is really nicely designed and well put together. 2 megs of RAM is probably enough for you if you...

Great for E-mail!

Date of Review:  Nov 1, 1999
Review: Why would I spend $450 for a PDA, then $150 for a modem for it, then $40 for a portable recharger just to get e-mail while traveling when I could spend about the same amount of money for a low cost laptop/notebook computer that does a whole lot...

A Solid PC Companion

Review: Although the marketplace is quickly becoming crowded with a myriad of handheld PC products, there are reasons beyond first mover advantage that keep Palm's product line in a leadership position. The sleek, pocket-size design; abundance of software...

Power, Sleakness and Organization

Date of Review:  Nov 7, 1999
Review: The Palm V has to be my most important purchase of this year. Being in college, I have so many things going on that lately I have been forgetting to remember meetings and dates of tests, or losing the pieces of paper that I write these important...

Intense User

Date of Review:  Nov 17, 1999
Review: I bought this version in July after agonizing over its limited memory and whether or not to stay with Palm's proprietary system. I stayed as a result of which I can tell you the memory is limited!!! Even Palm now recognizes that and has brought out...

Palm Vx Hard Case. Hard to hate. Hard to love.

Date of Review:  Jan 31, 2001
The Bottom Line: If you want to maintain the look of your Palm and provide it some level of protection, buy it.
Review: I had the winning name for the intranet site for our company. My $400 prize was a Palm Pilot V. A wonderfully overpriced gadget in a neatly compact package.

The problem with this neatly compact package is that it makes it VERY EASY to turn...

Review: The Palm V has far exceeded my needs and is perfect for the everyday user looking for a palm organizer that is just that, an organizer and 24hr assistant.

It is great for business and personal use. If you are a business traveller and only...

Palm V: Great for business professionals and consultants.

Date of Review:  Dec 1, 1999
Review: The Palm V is an all-in-one pocket organizer. Equipped with all of the features of a day-timer or a rolodex, all in a package smaller than a wallet. There is software available to sync you Palm V with any major scheduling software today. It can...
