One of best new gadgets

by zoeym , May 05 '01
Pros: Great combination of palm and cellphone

I've had it for a long time

by ProgressD , Jan 09 '01
Pros: Palm seamlessly integrated with the phone
Cons: Doesn't Ring Loud enough-no vibrate option
I've been using my PDQ Smartphone 1900 for more than a year now. I purchased it in November 1999 and have been pleased with it ever since.

with Sprint, my provider, than...

It's two...two...two electronic toys in one!

by basilisk4 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Dec 20 '00
Pros: Great technology, two helpful tools in one
Cons: Way too expensive for me
The Qualcomm pdQ Smartphone is an $800 way to have the coolest little hand-held device on the block. Every now and then, something comes along which is destined to be the next industry standard -- a product that will eventually be found in the home of...

This thing ROCKS!

by James_Ward , Nov 23 '00
Pros: Integrated internet PalmIII mobile phone!
Cons: Hard to read display.
Why did I buy this product?

I'm a gadgeteer, geek, nerd, whatever. I want to be able to do everything from anywhere and this baby is the best thing out to support me. I had a Nokia 9000i which was also very nice, but PalmOS vs. GEOS is a...

Usefull however annoying

by bill_squire , Aug 29 '00
Pros: great clarity , good at email
Cons: wireless internet almost worthless
Let me start by first telling you that I bought this phone primarily to use as a cell phone. I planned to use the email functionality however the rest of the web I felt really couldn't be expressed well on a little cell phone screen. As far as the...

pdQ: The Grown-up Palm

by RichFranco , Jul 07 '00
Pros: singular device, cost of ownership, utility
Cons: initial cost, short battery time
Qualcomm pdQ Smartphone

The smartphone looks like a big honkin' digital phone. That's because it packs a Palm III. Browse any web site. Get/send POP mail. Keep expenses. Make notes, beam, and synchronize with your computer.
Bricklike?....

Best Combo-Phone Out

by nsane1 , Jun 29 '00
Pros: Full Featured, great toy
Cons: Lack of support, non-upgradeable, bulky
I bought this phone the day it came out from Sprint last year. I bought it since I have always been a palm user, my palm was broken, and I needed a new cell phone. This product is the only one on the market that is so feature-rich (and still be a...

Pros: This phone is Palm equipped, web browser, CDMA!
Cons: web browser
It's happening! Massive consolidation in the wireless communications industry. One of my favorite things to do when I'm not forced to study is to "tinker" around with the latest technology in mobile phones. I test products, talk to sales...

Pros: comes with lots of accesories, full WAP/Internet integration, great call logging and speed dialing directories, dual band cell phone, large touch point palmtop monitor with Palm III OS,

The smartphone: Palm device, pager and phone

by kmahesh , Oct 12 '99
Pros: Single device for phone, organizer & pager
Cons: Weighs about 8 oz.., data coverage relatively new
The pdQ smartphone from Qualcomm is a single device you want to consider if you're looking for the Palm PDA functionality, phone and pager all built into it. Imagine not having to carry 3 separate devices when you can make do with one..
