| mkosak's Full Review: Palm Zire™ 71 Handheld |
For as long as I can remember I've tried keeping a calendar and address book, but to no avail. The answer to organization for me was the purchase a PDA. Not just any PDA, but one that acts as a digital camera and MP3 player; what more could you ask for?
I absolutely love the Zire 71 I purchased from Staples for a mere $229. The unit came with a case, stylus, docking cradle and charger combination, and 2 CDs (software).
The color screen is crisp and clear. The user can choose to view all the programs on the screen's menu or look at one category at a time (all, games, main, system, utilities) and has the option of editing the category list and creating menus tailored to his or her own needs.
I must admit the the gimmick of having a built in digital camera is what caught my eye. The built in will never replace my Canon digital camera, but it is a fun feature to have when you find yourself wanting to take a quick snapshot and your camera isn't with you.
