Pros: Excellent keyboard, long battery life, expandability, serious applications for serious work! Cons: Murky display, not quite pocketable, lack of "Wow" factor
If you need a computer which is "instant-on", reliable, expandable, and allows you to have an office away from your office, then this is still a great choice.
If you need a truly pocketable computer, or high "gimmick appeal", then look...
Remember when a lozenge-shaped monochrome was state of the art when it came to PDAs? Well, apparently Psion does, because their Series V - a model originally launched in 1998 - is still on the market, even as Windows CE has upped the ante with bright...
Pros: keyboard, options, features Cons: more money than other PDAs
I started looking for a PDA about two years ago and was drawn to the Psion because of the keyboard. After a lot of research I finally bought 1, (the last one actually from CompUSA). If you are looking to do more with a PDA this is a great one to...
Pros: Epoc OS, software, touch type keyboard, CF slot Cons: Lasts only 1-1.5 years
I own a Psion Series 5 8 MB for more than three years now, but I also have a Psion Siena 1 MB, and a Psion Revo 8 MB. It is a long time for using a computer, somewhat bad things really come out and good things start to shine. I will write about the ...
Pros: Long battery life, good keyboard, easily create Word and Excel documents Cons: Durability
I have 2.5 years experience as the owner of a Psion 5 Series machine. In that time I was able to just about use all the features available for the machine. Originally I purchased it for its agenda feature but as time went on, I was creating Word and...
I probably shouldn't be telling anyone this...
I was using a Psion 5 for work, and all things considered I liked it a lot. The screen was a bit hard to read, but larger than some I'd seen, and the keyboard and instant on features were fantastic. I...
Pros: Overall a great machine, but casing tend to break Cons: Casing on the Psion tend to break fast
I have owned a Psion series 5, 8 MB for about 2 years now. Don't get me wrong....it is an awesome machine. You can "almost" type on it in the regular fashion, like a regular keyboard, but if someone tell you it is like typing on a regular...
I bought my S5 in Aug 97 when it was first launched. Overall it has served me well and been my constant companion, especially when I travel. The World Clock is invaluable.
Software:
Overall the EPOC applications are excellent, esp the...
Pros: Keyboard, memory, synchronisation, service Cons: battery life?
First about the product
This summer, I bought the then just released series 5mx. I had owned a 3c a couple of years ago and it felt 'good to be back'.
I am very pleased with it and the synchronisation with M$ office is just as it should...
Pros: OS, battery life, loud alarms, keyboard, apps Cons: synching, lack of Mac support, screen, lack of modem, paint peels off the case
I freely admit that I enjoy fiddling with new gadgets. However, a careful examination of my time logs revealed to me a while ago that it has been a very expensive preoccupation. Had I spent all that time making sales calls and writing articles, I'd have...
Pros: Great keyboard, great built-in applications, great value for money Cons: US support not very good
I have owned a Windows CE unit, two Palms and have now been using the Psion series 5 for two years. For my use, this is the best of the lot.
In many ways, this machine has the best of both the Palm and Windows CE worlds. Like the Palm (and unlike...
Pros: Great Applications Software Cons: Dreadful keyboard and construction
I have used a Psion product since 1988.
I first used an Organiser which was a very sturdy unit – almost unbreakable.
I then used the Series 3 when it first came out and have had several up to a Series 3a until April 2000. It has been fantastic...
Pros: great keyboard, great features, stable Cons: man'f defects, dim LCD, less software
Last year I was in the market for portable computing. I had a tough decision to make -- I could jump on the bandwagon, and get a PalmPilot. But I just needed a keyboard -- that graffiti stuff seemed annoying. I could buy a Windows CE device, but I...
Pros: keyboard, big functionality Cons: heavy, bad quality, too big, expensive
I am using the Palm V, 8 MB, for 10 months now and it has served me very well. My decision to move from analog agenda and address planning with paper and pencil to the digital world is something I do not regret.
