Palm m130 Personal Organizer

Pros: Color screen, easy to use
Cons: Hard to clean

The Palm m130 is a very excellent PDA. I was looking for a PDA that had a color screen, basic electronic organizer capabilities (datebook, addresses, etc.), and the capability to load additional programs onto it. I found the m130.

The m130...

Pros: color, price, packed with features
Cons: a little bit too bulky

First I have to say this is my 4th PDA. Before the palm I was using a Psion 3mx that was long due for replacement.

COLOR
At last affordable color is available for PDA and that's the main selling argument for this one.
It's a pleasure...

Pros: Reasonably priced color PDA, included software, expansion card slot.
Cons: Hard to put into Hotsync cradle.

UPDATE: at bottom of review

I had a Palm III back in 98 or 99, but I never used it much and gave it away to a friend. I never thought that I would have the need for another PDA, but this year that all changed.

Why did...

Pros: Fresh, stylish look with color screen for good entry level cost.
Cons: thicker than the Palm Vx I had before.

DISCLAIMER

You will find that I am not one of these folks who has each and every PDA on the market.(Do they really personally own 8 or 9 PDA's?) I have had two personally and been exposed to two others, although not nearly...

Pros: Brilliant Colour screen, SD Card support, nice form factor!
Cons: Nothing significant to rant about!

I was totally awed by the faceplate m130 comes in: I think Palm finally got it right! The nice glossy/'polished' surface feels smooth to touch, and I almost couldn't bear to put it down. Moreover, the blue/silver colour theme complements that of Palm's -...

Pros: Feels good in my hand. Light weight. Awesome 16bit color screen. fast. Expandable
Cons: None that I can think of.

This is the third Palm that I have purchased. My first Palm was the Palm III and I was impressed with that unfortunately it was stolen. My second Palm was the M105. I liked it and was really getting used to the Graffity stuff but I wanted more, no I...

Pros: Conveniently small; color screen; lots of uses; very easy to use
Cons: No hardcopy instruction manual; the case that's made for it; outdoor display limited

For the last six years, I have been a Sharp Wizard user. All I wanted from my handheld was a good organizer, scheduler, to do's etc. I put off leaving my Wizard behind because I loved the perfect keyboard, big screen etc. Alas, after serving me well...

Pros: Expansion Slot, easy to use, rechargeable, included software
Cons: Plastic screen, stiff cradle, life between charges

Introduction
The "m" series, like any other product family, has grown. It started with the m105 and has now a total of five PDAs with the m130 as the latest addition to the m1** family.

What's included
Palm m130 device...

Pros: color screen, rechargeable battery, 8 MB of memory, small, affordable, attractive
Cons: I wish it had 16 MB.

Laptops are too expensive. I don't like to write by hand, I prefer to type. What is the only electronic portable device other than a laptop that you can type with? A PDA, which is short for Personal Data (or Digital) Assistant. There are two main types...

Pros: Affordable, color screen, EFFICIENT OS, amazingly useful
Cons: (nothing bad) Simple beep speaker, sort of small memory [8mb]

A while ago, a coworker of mine bought himself a Pocket PC - which technically is a much more powerf ...

Pros: Nice size and weight, buttons easy to use, nice flip top, great price.
Cons: Color and brightness leave a bit to be desired.

A week ago I bought the m130. I have previously owned an m100 and a IIIc. I really didn't need a new Palm, but I saw this one and just had to have it.

Size
There were a few things I didn't like about my IIIc that kept me from using it as...

Pros: Vivid colour, high resolution, long battery life, rugged, and great design.
Cons: Only 8 mb, and memory card on side of device

First of all, the Palm m130 is an inexpensive handheld, now that doesn't mean it doesn't preform well. It preforms great! I got the Palm m130 as a Christmas gift, and i've had it for about 4 months. I've been really liking the Palm m130, it is really ...

Pros: Great ergonomic design, flip cover, SD slot, COLOR
Cons: Can't use all universal devices, screen hard to see in natural light, no flash ROM

My wife purchased the M130 for me for Christmas this past year, and got a great deal on a free keyboard that came with the device.

This was an upgrade for me from a Cassiopeia E-11, and it was well worth the learning curve for the Palm OS....

Pros: color screen, 8 mb memory, expansion, usb, smaller model
Cons: small screen

This is a great Palm Handheld to look into. Offering a more personal look on the outside. The m130 offers 8mb of memory, a backlit color screen with a great resolution, a smaller body style, expansion slots, and much more. One con of the m130 might be...

Pros: Great Look, Great feel, Its Color, 8mb storage space, tons of acssesories, Palm os
Cons: NONE

THis is the best Palm pilot on the market, for the price of course. At 279 dollars it wasn't too expensive and it has all the great features of a much more expensive one. First of all this Palm is in color. This feature is a must for anyone who wants...
