Pros: Small, lightweight, easy to use.
Cons: Not enough memory!!
I like the Palm III--It is another great 3-COM inovation for a great price. I don't like the fact that it has 2mg of ram. My first palm--The Professional--only had 1mg of ram, and i constantly had to add more at an expensive premium. The lack of ram...

Pros: Color, costly applications.
Cons: Its a little big for the pocket, cost
WHY I bought this?
Being a disorganized college student, i needed something to organize my life. Pen and paper wasn't cutting if for me anymore. This revelation just happen to hit at the same time the PDA craze was going on. After weeks of...

Pros: useful
Cons: expensive for not much added functionality
While in college, I purchased a used Palm Personal from someone for $100 (It was then retailing at around $250, the professional version with backlighting was $300 I think). It served me wonderfully at the time, but when it recently died I have avoided...

Pros: Extremely versatile, great software, sleek design.
Cons: Bulky, dim screen, no color, low memory, hard to use.
Several years ago, I thought handhelds were the coolest things in the world. They would solve all my organizational problems, and I would finally be able to relax.
You see, I was a Network Administrator for a small company (about 175 people),...

Pros: It will organize your life
Cons: A bit pricey and fragile.
Every small paper notebook I've kept with me didn't last long in my pocket - a few days to a few weeks, at most.
I needed something to organize my to-do lists and my appointments that was pocketable, feature-rich and not too expensive.

Pros: Color. Fast. Small. 8 Megs Memory.
Cons: No easily available wireless solution.
I waited to upgrade to a new Palm device having been the owner of a Palm 5000, a Palm Pro, and a PalmIII. Having an admitted preference for the Palm platform and form factor I can say I was delighted with the new color active matrix TFT screen. At...

Pros: ease of use
Cons: bulky, not enough memory
Laura Palmer is dead. And soon the Palm III will join her. Maybe not as mysteriously, but dead is dead. It will go the way of the atari, the commodore 64, the dinosaur. It's not to say that the Palm III is not a wonderful gadget. I bought mine in...

Pros: Incredibly easy to use
Cons: About the only one I could find is that the batteries run out quickly
I consider myself very lucky having lost my Playstation and all my video games. That is saying a lot coming from a college student! I consider myself so lucky because I traded my beloved Playstation for a Palm III. I am always writing things of vital...

Pros: Great PDA all-around
Cons: Only 2 MB of RAM, not as "cool-looking" as newer Palm V family
I have had my Palm III since last summer, and it has been a great friend.
When I first got my Palm, I was using a Mac, and palm interoperability with Macs was shameful. I had problems installing, hot synching, and I hated the bland Palm...

Pros: Easy to use and learn
Cons: Lacks features necessary in a portable device
The Palm III was the first PDA I purchased and I still use it occasionally. Although it is very useful for tracking dates and appointments, it lacks on some features. The HotSync feature is very nice so that you can communicate with your computer and...

Pros: Fast, helpful service
Cons: Some trouble getting through to technical support line
Recently my trusty Palm III developed a fault. The screen had stopped responding to taps from the stylus, intermittently at first, then permanently. All my data had been backed up so I wasn't worried about that, but obviously a Palm Pilot with a...

Pros: easy to use, very functional applications
Cons: would be nice to have color for fun
I got my Palm Pilot about two years ago. Up until then, I had been lugging around one of those huge daytimer type organizers. I have a lot to keep up with, the problem was, with an organizer that large, I was carrying a backpack with me everywhere I...

Arrgh! I may be the only person that dislikes this particular device but....
I purchased both the Palm III and the Palm IIIx and evaluated them to see if they could replace my paper organizer (Day-Runner/Franklin Planner, etc.) I found that,...

Pros: easy to learn, small, light, versatile
Cons: weak backlight , only one stylus, already out of date
My Palm III experience has been bitter-sweet. I absolutely love it but quickly learned after buying it that it was like a computer...the minute you bring it home it's outdated. Oh well. It really does everything I need it to do for now.

Pros: lots of ways to program
Cons: costly
I have not purchased this yet (I am saving for it) but my friend has it and just loves it. I have checked it out and I love it too that is why I am saving for it. I gotta have one. If you're one of those people that have problems using a standard remote...
