Palm IIIc Handheld

Pros: it does everything I need it to, and doesn't care about the unneeded stuff
Cons: a tad bit big, poor screen quality, no real USB solution

My Palm III has defied all the odds. No one who knew me thought that I'd still be using it after a year, no one actually thought that if I wanted to use it it would be in one piece.

Well after over a year my PIII has travelled, been swiming...

Pros: Fast speed, sleek design
Cons: Screen washes out in sunlight

This is truly a solid Palm, one of the best I have seen! I upgraded from a Handspring Visor to this and will never look back. The colors are very neat and crisp (as long as you stay inside. The processor is more than fast enough to handle the demanding...

Pros: Many features
Cons: Small screen

This is the best new palm pilot. It allows the user to have a new perspective on things. If you were uneasy about buying a palm before this should be your calling to buy one. The programs for this one are very useful.

Features:

Pros: size, convenience, capacity for information
Cons: only 2 megs

I AM A COLLEGE STUDENT WHO DESPERATELY NEEDS TO GET ORGANIZED! Or at least that's how I felt before I was introduced to the Palm III. I've seen other kids around campus with PDA's and wondered why everyone was so attatched to their's, so I put the Palm...

Pros: none
Cons: none

The palm III is one of the best PDA in the world. Is small, is compact and the battery last forever. The Palm comes with computer software, docking station. The Palm III has tons of software from the Internet that you can download from the Internet and...

Pros: small, strong, many applications, nice look
Cons: battery consumption, english only

I bought it like 2 years ago and it was very expensive that time (like $499 USD), but finally bought it.

It helped me to organize my agenda, which now have a lot of partners, friends, etc.

The built-in programs are fine, but I...

Pros: Color
Cons: Price Tag

To cool not to consider buying. Hi, I just returned from lunch and spent my precious one hour at my favorite lunch spot...Comp USA (not for the service, if you know what I mean). All joking aside; after reading about the NEW Palm IIIc color unit that...

Pros: Simple: Interface, Syncs, operation; Battery Life
Cons: Screen is occasionally hard to read, Grafitti

The Palm III is the perfect example of why the flashier machine isn't always the better machine. I purchased a Cassiopeia E-125, and found even the simplest tasks incredibly complex. Frustrated, I turned to the Palm.
For starters, the...

Pros: Good color screen, very well planed!
Cons: Screen could be sharper!!!

Over the years I had countless pda's, I never dared to get one with a color screen thinking it would be to expencive and not worth my while. I'll tell you one thing black and white sucks!!! I spent hours on end looking at the greenish screen trying...

Pros: Useful great product
Cons: Can't carry extra batteries like other models

I was holding back from buying a Palm because of my perception that
it was mostly an address book. Plus, the price of $500 seemed high.
Then I bought this product and never looked back. I chose Palm over Handspring because I wanted to optimize...

Pros: Cheap, light, small
Cons: Physical buttons are not so well built.

The palm III doesn't have color, it doesn't recognize standard handwritting, and it only has 2 megs of RAM. Why would anybody use it? Because it is one of the most useful handhelds out there. As a early newton user, I caried around a computer 10X more...

Pros: Simple to use - highly functional
Cons: Screen sometimes hard to read

I purchased the Palm III after giving a try to a Windows CE device. The contrast is that Windows CE devices try to do all things for all purposes - they pretend to be a shrunken notebook. The limitations of size and battery life means they just give...

Pros: low price, large amount of software
Cons: screen not as clear as newer models

The PalmIII is your basic organizer, but that is not a bad thing. It is missing a lot of the glitz of WindowsCE and some of the other organizers, but it makes up for that in it's useability. The PalmIII is simple to use, not overcomplicated, but has...

Pros: Getting less expensive. Portability for immediate Gratification.
Cons: Doesn't sync well with Lotus Notes. Not really necessary.

Its hard to argue the fact that the Palm III is very useful. I love buying little toys and justifying them with to my wife with some rationale about increased productivity. But when it comes down to brass tacks, the Palm didn't improve my productivity at...

Pros: Battery life, durable, very useful and easy 2 use
Cons: Poor screen, 2 bulky for me, expandabilty

Having bought the Palm III in November 98, I was one of the many people who desired to belong to the "me-to" crowd of consumers. The Palm III is a useful tool. Initially, I was finding all the apps very useful, but once the novelty wore off,...
