Digital camera reviews of PalmOne Vx Handheld
Digital camera Review: Just Love It
Summary: 5 Stars
I started with the IIIe, then I got the Vx. It is small, compact and easy to use. The only problem I see, is they keep getting better and I always want the new one. However, the Vx is working great 1 year later and going strong. I also purchased the keyboard and use it in meetings for notes. I really am very pleased with this product.Digital camera Review: What a disappointment
Summary: 1 Stars
I recently got a Vx and what a disappointment! It is not upgradable. The recharger is expensive if you want one at the office. There is no backup, so if the battery goes dead you lose all your data. It comes with bare bones software and the add-ons are expensive. I quickly used up the 8 MB of memory and now I have to discard this one and buy something that better suits my needs. Don't waste your money on this one. Other brands have more to offer.Digital camera Review: Super Duper Goody Poody!
Summary: 5 Stars
Well, I can't help but agree with most other users in that the Palm Vx is a wonderful PDA, and I regret losing mine (only con: it's small, if that's a con.). The 8mb of RAM is the best it gets with the Palm platform, and is way better than my Palm VII's 2mb. The PalmOS operating system is versatile and powerful, with tons of third party software developers out there, and even more progrmams. Back to the first Pilots, Palm PDAs have shown this and proven themselves worthy. If I were to get a non "m"-series Palm PDA, I'd definetly take this one.Digital camera Review: Complimentary upgrade
Summary: 4 Stars
I was to recieve a complimentary upgrade with my order. Please follw up and forward the upgrade to me. ThanksDigital camera Review: A Great Palm!
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm a diligent Palm fan and have walked the upgrade line from the Palm Pilot through the PalmIII to the PalmVx (and been forced to buy new peripherals with each since Palm has had different connectors on all the models so far). Each upgrade has only granted small improvements, but the latest PalmVx puts together the sleek case, the IR port and the large 8MB of memory well.The Palm should be best though of as a computer extension. It allows you take and work with vital information from your computer when you don't happen to be next to it. If you're looking for something you could use instead of your laptop, I would recommend looking at Compaq's iPac with WindowsCE.
I enjoy my Palm because it syncs with Outlook (I use Pumatech's IntelliSync for this) at home and work holding all of my phone numbers and appointments. But this basic default functionality is only the tip of the iceberg with the Palm. What makes it great is there are so many programs out there you can install to get even more use from.
I use a program called AvantGo that syncs on some of my favorite web sites (CNN, C-Net News, The Onion, etc.) for a good read on my train ride to/from work each day.
I used TealDoc to read free books available online like "The Island of Doctor Moroe" or "The Man in the Iron Mask." There are thousands of books whose copyright has ended and are now freely available to download and read.
Documents to Go lets me read and work on Word or Excel documents away from the desk.
With FireViewer I take digital pictures of my friends and family everywhere I go.
The Palm is a great desktop extension. It lets you take vital information with you everywhere and helps you keep track of all your personal information.
