Digital camera reviews of Palm TX Handheld
Digital camera Review: A Step Backward
Summary: 2 Stars
The TX uses a slower processor to conserve the battery. The result is quite annoying compared with the snappy response of the T3. The TX has some nice features but the downgrade in the CPU is a big disappointment. I cannot recommend the TX.Digital camera Review: A WARNING, not a review

I have owned the original Palm, the Palm V, and 2 different Clié from Sony (when available) and then I changed to the Palm TX.
I had problems with its software because it crashed very often. After that the SD/MMC card drive did not read the sticks. So I took it for repairs.
They didn't fix it the first time around, just shipped it back. I sent it again and they returned it with the problem solved but now the screen made a horrible squeak when ON. I sent it back three additional times, always with the promise of a new unit, but I somehow seemed to receive the old one everytime. To make a long story short, they took 2 COMPLETE MONTHS to deliver a new PALM.
I decided to get rid of it right away.
Digital camera Review: A Winner
Summary: 5 Stars
The Palm T/X is a great product. This is my third Palm (had Palm IIIc, Palm Tungsten E) and I love it. The handwriting recognition software (Graffiti) is much improved and when I write letters, they trace on the screen as I write them. The writing space for capital letters, small letters and numbers is clearly separated. The writing space can be made to appear and disappear depending on what I'm doing on the screen. The coolest part of the T/X is the Internet web access, which can wirelessly connect to a public access network or through the cellphone. I can remotely use the web and access my email. It's fabulous and makes the Palm even more versatile than before. I thought about getting a Treo (cellphone with Palm) but I hated the idea of having a big clunker up against my ear when I'm on the phone. The T/X takes care of all my connectivity needs without having the cellphone thrown in.Digital camera Review: A good PDA
Summary: 4 Stars
I like the T/X for the most part but have spent a number of hours trying to figure out how to get it to work with MS Vista, finally had to disable the documents to go. Didn't get much help from the Palm website, but did from the users blog that it referred me to, but still hit and miss. The calendar is great and the ability to access the internet is nice.Digital camera Review: A good device but...

Generally speaking, it is a good buy for the features
I got for the money I paid. One of the regrets is that
I could not view most of my PDF files. Also, the OS
itself should have come with one file manager. What's
the big deal with including this type of small application
in the original package.
There should be more applications included in the
package. Also, the memory card is too easy to pop out.
For 2 times in a 2 weeks, the momory card pop off into
my pocket.
I could have got a better deal if I didn't buy it
from Amazon.com.
