Palm IIIx Handheld

Pros: Fast, small and mobile.
Cons: IPeople always want to play with it.

Pros: Completeness of applications
Cons: Some usability issues

I've had my IIIx for 3 months now and I don't know how I lived without one. I've been able to keep track of my work and personal appointments much easier. Before I'd keep track of my calendar by syncing my work and home version of Outlook, now it's as...

Pros: Ease of use. Customizable with downloadable software. Peace of mind being able to back up information
Cons: Gray-scale screen. A little bulky.

A friend then told me about the PalmPilot...

Pros: good old original
Cons: not enough memory for large programs, black and white

Pros: Suprising how useful this thing really is
Cons: Once you start using it you never want to go anywhere without it

I received my Palm as a gift. When my wife gave it to me I thought 'this is cool, but what am I really going do with it'?
It didn't take long before I realized how useful this thing really is. The preinstalled datebook, address book and memo pad...

Pros: Small, easy to use, 4 meg memory
Cons: none that I could think of

I've had the PalmIIIX for a few months now. I used to use a paper agenda and I was always erasing and changing appointments. Now life is a lot easier to manage. I keep all my appointments as well as my phone book (and a few games) listed in my PalmIIIX....

Pros: its great!

I wanted a PDA because I was tired of dragging around my huge leather day planner. I...

Pros: Competitive pricing, highly expandable, durable

Pros: Simple, versatile, zillions of applications
Cons: Can't think of any!

I highly recommend the IIIx to help you get organized, whether you are in business, a student, or are running a busy household. I am a Palm-devotee; I upgraded from the Professional model (with 2MB beaming upgrade). Before buying my Palms I checked out...

Pros: Integration w/ Microsoft, Size, Weight, Features
Cons: Backlight isn't the best

If you are in the market for one of these handhelds, consider the Palm IIIx first.
