Pros: The latest innovation from the people who started Palm computing Cons: Not available at retail stores....yet
Okay...so you are thinking about finally laying down some cold hard cash for a Personal Digital Assistant? I know....I know. You've seen people carrying around their Palm organizers and you've probably thought that they are nothing more than expensive...
I’ve always been one for a trend. Now, I don’t consider myself a follower by any means; however, if some fad comes along that I think is neat-o, I’m all over it. Slap bracelets? Had thirty. Jams? Best pants ever. New Kids on the Block? I was Hangin’...
Pros: Cheap, reliable, tons of applications Cons: Backlighting, case
I've always considered myself to be an Early Adopter type of gadget freak. As such, I've owned several PDAs over the last few years. Among them are the Apple Newton, Palm Pilot 1000, Palm Professional, Palm IIIc, HP Jornada 545 and, now, the Handspring...
Pros: portable, east setup, many features Cons: screen scratches easily
I have noticed that there has been quite a buzz surrounding this and similar products lately so I decided to try it out and give it a look. Fortunately, I have access to the Handspring Visor Deluxe at work and I did not have to pay the $249 for it. I...
Pros: Cheap, Durable, Versatile, Comes in Different Colors, easy to use Cons: Screen scratches easily, fairly large
This review is part of the "Fluff Chick Write Off" which is hosted by MADYL
Most of these writers are well-known for writing about "girly" items, such as beauty products, but have decided to express their creativity in a slightly different...
Pros: cost, expandibility Cons: monochrome, no wireless internet, durability
Background
The Handspring Visor Deluxe rocketed into the spotlight last fall when it emerged as a viable alternative to the Palm series of PDAs. Demand for the new unit vastly outstripped supply, and waits for customers were extremely...
Pros: Expansion Slot Cons: 2 MB memory, no USB cradle, $149 price tag
The Palm budget wars continue... fighting for the low-end market in the Palm OS territory is the Handspring Visor and the Palm m100/m105 series. Here we have a revamped packaging effort by Handspring for their oldest line... the Handspring Visor.
...
Pros: Great value, ample memory, better calendar, style, expandable! Cons: The backlight is the worst - unusable!
I've had a Visor Deluxe for months now - somehow I got lucky when I first ordered the device - it showed up in 3 weeks. From the moment out of the box this was the best PDA I've owned. It's a 100% PalmOS compatible device which means there are thousands...
Pros: springboard port; 8 MB memory; cheap! Cons: cheaply made; large and heavy; screen scratches easily, non-rechargable batteries
Initially I found the Visor to be a superb product. After two months of use, I reached my breaking point and sold mine on Ebay...I'm now a happy Palm Vx owner, but have had plenty of experience and hopefully wisdom to share. Don't get me wrong... the...
Pros: Great Organizor, E-mail System Ect. Cons: Kindda hard to write using the pen.
I picked up my Handspring last week via a trade with a friend of mine’s father. That’s right I worked the old bartering system and traded him some computer parts for his brand new Handspring. I didn’t think I needed it, but he needed the parts and...
Pros: Expansion potential, easier to use hard buttons Cons: Palm sync cradle and screen cover better
They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Visor was started by ex 3Com/Palm execs who went out on their own and licensed the Palm OS software. They took all they knew that was good and tried to add on extras while keeping the price...
Pros: Less expensive than competing models, faster than 3Com Palm series, more expandable than 3Com Palm series Cons: Bad cover and case design, difficult to contact customer service and tech support
I was pleased to find out that the inventors of the Palm Pilot would be forming a company to design a device that both competed with the Palm Pilot and ran all its existing software. As many industry followers have observed, Palm Computing needed a run...
Pros: large memory capacity, portability, price Cons: Only useful if you use it!
Even a great product, like the Handspring Visor Deluxe, ceases to be great if it’s not useful to the owner. My Visor is the second Palm OS device I’ve owned, the first being an original Palm Pilot. Eight megabytes of storage is a huge amount. Using this...
