Pros: 8mb of memory, choice of colors, price, Springboard Modules are great for gadget lovers and most others, USB hot-syncing, 2 AAA batteries
Cons: leather case that comes with it is very small and I recommend getting a new case, Springboard Modules are costly, a little too big too fit in most pockets, Palm OS is not upgradable

So.....are you thinking about getting a PDA? Which one should you get? I think I know. I wanted a PDA for under $300 and, well, this is what i got. This is by no doubt the best PDA I have ever seen, and I think you will agree. Its 8 megs of memory...

Pros: Fast, Portable, Good Expanibility!
Cons: Screen isn't to sensitive.

As far as Personal Digital Assistants go, this is the best I have had so far. The Handspring visor offers superb expandibility by using spring boards, there are many different spring boards and they all serve an individual purpose. There are GPS, Camera,...

Pros: Runs Palm OS software. Great customer service. Indestructible.
Cons: Quirky replacements.

I have owned my Handspring now for over a year. In that time I have taken it around the world. Thrown it in the back of trucks, sat on it. Dropped it. Used it for everything from referencing medical information to translating French to English. It has...

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: Expandable, good price!
Cons: Not as great looking as palmV, but who cares!

Well what can I say,
as a PDA salesperson at a local computer store, I spend the whole day discussing the various features of pretty much every PDA available. Until 1 month ago, the only real option for a reliable user-friendly PDA was a Palm...

Pros: price, ease of use, and expandability
Cons: still the new kid on the block

I purchased this product in October 1999, when it was first introduced to the market. I was looking for a Palm and decided the would probably be the best thing for me. Visor's springboard expansion slot ensures that two weeks after buying this item you...

Pros: Affordable, Expandable, Easy to use
Cons: Nothing I have found yet...

I picked up my Handspring Visor Deluxe in July of this year. I had never heard of the company before a few of my friends here at school were beaming stuff to each other via these cool looking PDAs. I asked them what they were and once I got to playing...

Pros: Available in a wide variety of colors 8MB RAM, Faster than PALM
Cons: Hard Cover

I use my visor deluxe from day to day, and must say that the experience is way better than any palm, inc. product that I have used. For one, even though the processor speed is the same, the Visor is faster, even on benchmark utilities.
I also use...

Pros: Small - sleek - well constructed
Cons: No color LCD available

People ask me what's in that black leather case hanging from my belt? I tell them that's my brain. Sounds crazy, doesn't it? That's what happens though when you become dependant upon your PDA the way that I've become dependant upon my Visor...

Pros: inexpensive, lots of memory, infinitely expandable, lots of pre-existing software
Cons: backlight isn't so great

I'm a consultant, so managing contacts
and meetings is an important aspect of
my job. I've bought other handheld devices
before, but none of them ever really worked
out that well for me.

I originally bought the compaq...

Pros: Springboard port, lots of memory, colors
Cons: Not available in red!(doh!), Uses more batteries (get rechargables)

I always liked the concept of a portable pc or handheld pc. I never wanted to spend $2000 or more on a laptop computer, or even the $500 some of the high-end Palm's cost.

Along comes HandSpring with their Visor Deluxe. For $249, I had a...

Pros: price, Springboard
Cons: I don't have one (yet)

I love gadgets. Anything cool looking filled with circuitry, I probably like. Like the Palm Pilot. I have no practical use for one, but I want one. But now? Palm may have to rethink their strategy, because they're being beaten at their own game, by one...

Pros: Easy to Use, Versatility
Cons: See review

I first started seriously looking at purchasing a PDA about 6 months ago. To tell you the honest truth, I was only really familiar at the time with the Palm name, and started by looking at their available options.

It soon became clear to me...

Pros: USB Connection, Springboard, Color choices, Cheap price.
Cons: Static ROM means not upgradable

I think that the Visor Deluxe has a great competitor which is the Palm IIIxe. I just recently bought myself a PDA and I'm telling you, it's the coolest thing ever. Especially if you download Avantgo on your PDA then you'll be able to do endless stuff on...

Pros: Expandability
Cons: size

I found the idea behind the Visor great. The idea that you will eventually be able to interchange different "cartridges", I think otherwise known as spring boards, such as GPS, a pager, digital camerea, a Tiger Woods Golf game, etc. definitely...
