Pros: Lots of RAM, sturdy case, great datebook
Cons: the cover kinda sucks

At the beginning of the year, my resolution as to try and get organized, mostly because I am a mess. I am always losing my address book, forgetting appointments and all sorts of bad stuff like that. So, I decided to purchase a Visor Deluxe because it...

Pros: Cheaper.
Cons: Quality control poor. Tech and Customer Support seriously inadequate.

Given the difference in price and the module feature, I opted for the Visor Deluxe over the Palm. My first one arrived and nearly as soon as I got up and running with all data entered, it crashed. Turns out I had the DRAM "Bad Chip" (see Palm...

Pros: Springboard Modules, Hardware Developers Kit released for free
Cons: OS not Flash Upgradable

I had been looking for a PDA for some time, I also just moved to NYC. I attended the PC Expo, and Handsprings booth specifically. What I saw impressed me. Not only was Handspring cheap, it was better than PALM devices.
Now, I know what you are...

Pros: Works great, relatively cheap, cool colors
Cons: A little thicker than the Palm V

I owned a Palm III and then a Palm V with previous employers but when I left my last job and had to return the Palm V it was time to look for a new PDA.

I liked the form factor of the Palm V but it hadn't seem to be great at recognizing my...

Pros: Springboard support, Lots of 3rd party programs, Battery life, very fast application launch, plenty of memory, quality feel, USB support
Cons: No battery or AC power backup in cradle, synchronizing software could be easier to use

Before purchasing a Handspring Deluxe I had used a Casio E-10 for almost two years. The screen was hazy and accessing applications was painfully slow. But it had two things going for it that the Handspring does not have.

1. ActiveSync...

Pros: Too many too name
Cons: Too little to mention

When I first purchased the Visor Deluxe in February of 2000, It was still relatively new. I went to an all engineering school and was the only one with one. Everybody else had a Palm. I remember back then they laughed at me and called me a "Fake...

Pros: Great tool, fairly good price
Cons: Sence I have to make one up, the cradles don't come in colors

After ridiculing my father about his self proposed christmas present, I began respecting the Handspring Visor Deluxe. Anything that can keep a man like my dad interested for as long as his handspring did, is obviously something out of the ordinary. I...

Pros: Affordable, lots of memory, USB
Cons: Not many add ons yet

I originally bought the handspring over a similar palm because of the promise of the expansion slot. As a PDA, I think its great. This is my first and I must say that I was amazed by the amount of data that can be stored and the ease of getting it into...

Pros: Great product, easy to use, excellent replacement policy
Cons: No rechargeable battery pack. (or is that a pro?)

I suppose I shouldn't go about writing an article about visor without generically praising it with stuff I'm sure you've heard a hundred times over. I'm not a commercial for goodness' sake!

Cheap, cute, quick, easy to use, infinitely...

Pros: Decent Price, Completely Expandable, Tons of memory
Cons: Stylus can scratch the screen, Initial HotSync cradle only comes in USB.

I recently bought a Handspring Visor Deluxe, in Blue, from my local Target store. It came with a free leather case, which was very helpful.
I originally began my search for a PDA about a year ago, when I was introduced to the Handspring Visor. I...

Pros: colorful design, good value, PalmOS
Cons: expensive springboard modules

Needing to get organized in some way, I purchased this PDA after doing some research and some debating.
The investment has been good one so far. Your money will go further with this product. Compared to other Palm devices which costs about $150 more...

Pros: Storage space, viewability, cost, expandability
Cons: can't upgrade OS

If you’re like me and don’t want to spend half of your paycheck on a new PDA, then right now I’m going to tell you that the Handspring Visor Deluxe is the right choice for you. How do I know this? Well I’m a struggling college and even though I knew I...

Pros: features for the price
Cons: it isn't a Palm Vx

The Visor Deluxe, for the money (this being the critical caveat), is the best PDA on the market in the Palm OS arena.

Drdavec1 is correct on all observations, in my opinion. However, his conclusions conflict with his original premise . . ....

Pros: Great Design, Great Cost
Cons: Needs some design improvements for durability

First of all, let me say, the Visor is an excellent item, and I love it. That said, there are some minor flaws. On my original visor deluxe, it worked great until I dropped it at work (Worked excellent at my retail job for keeping notes). I had...

Pros: Infinite upgradability, good customer service
Cons: was difficult to get for a while

After several jealous months of watching people at work goof off with their PalmPilots, I was determined that I would get one of my own. While searching the internet for a PDA that was affordable and still powerful, I found the handspring website...
