Palm Vx Handheld

Pros: A dream when it works
Cons: Mechanical and software problems

I am on my third Palm Vx. The power button gave out on my original and I returned it requesting that the same unit be returned to me. Miraculously, the original unit was sent back to me but the power button gave up again after only 5 days of moderate...

Pros: Extra memory
Cons: Haven't found one!

This review is not only for the Vx, but for Palm itself (and 3Com as my original experience was pre-spinoff).

I first got a Palm V and loved it! Sleek design, metal look. It turned heads as well as performed well. I soon found out, though,...

Pros: Sleek and lightweight, more memory, rechargable and ready for wireless modem
Cons: Looks like the Palm V, no USB connection

I have owned almost every model of Palm PDAs. The first Professional, the III, Palm V, Palm VIIx and now the Palm Vx....ok I am a techno junky.

Here's the straight scoop. The Palm VIIx has a nice integrated wireless platform, but the wireless...

Pros: reliable, beautiful, versatile
Cons: monochrome screen

Okay, I've tried them all. Even fell for the Pocket PC's for a bit, however, this has got to be the best, despite the monochrome screen. The Palm Vx is beautifully designed, easy to carry and the Palm OS is still the most reliable Operating System...

Pros: Sleek, sexy, feels solid, long battery life, tons of third party software.
Cons: Er...can't think of any

Hey

I'd toyed with buying one of these for a long time, finally took the plunge and I'm so glad I did.

The Palm Vx is sleep, compact but feels very solidly built and rugged. The functionality is just amazing with a load of built in...

Pros: 8MB memory, hackable, small
Cons: expensive, no back lighting

with my busy schedule, i had to get more organized this year. planners, i have tried in the past, and they simply don't work -- i forget to bring them, or i forget to open them other than to add something, or i misplace them and forget i had one.
...

Pros: small size, lots of storage
Cons: screen sometimes hard to read

When I was looking for a pda, I knew I wanted one thing, small. And this is it. There isn't much smaller these days, and I'm glad. I forget I have it around most of the time. Also, I recently purchased the case with credit card slots, etc, and now it...

Pros: Light, easy to setup and use
Cons: no expansion slot, expensive accessories, tough to delete applications and free up memory

The Palm Vx was really my first jump into the world of the PDAs. Before this I was using a conventional planner. To say the least I wasn’t having much fun lugging it around and trying to find the right information at a moment’s notice. The Palm on the...

Pros: Everything in one place
Cons: You get dependent on this thing

In the old days it was Day Runner and FiloFax books. And they were great at keeping your schedule if you were willing to deal with all the scratch-outs. All of that is gone with the Palm PDA's.

I have owned several PDA devices, and overall...

Pros: Extremely powerful, flexible, and easy to use
Cons: Not enough people know about it...yet!!

It's really quite surprising how much people will put up with when they don't know what they are missing. I have read all of the rave reviews out there about Palm, but what would you say if you could get more out of your PDA?

How would you...

Pros: 8mb of memory
Cons: learning graffiti

I am totally in love with my new Palm Vx. I did a lot of research on PDA's and after much debate I settled on this one. I'm so glad that I did.
Once I got it home it was easy to set up. The software that comes with it is straight forward and easy...

Pros: Easy to use, lightweight, rechargeable, reliable OS.
Cons: None.

I purchased my Palm Vx January 2000. After more than a year, I still love it. This handheld has helped me organize my busy life.

The Palm Vx is lightweight, it looks elegant, has a large amount of memory, AND it's rechargeable. Because it's...

Pros: Great Style, 8 MB memory, Easy to use, Lithium Ion Battery
Cons: N/A

I purchased my Palm Vx 3 months ago. Before I got my Vx, I had IIIxe. IIIxe was appealing because it had 8 MB memory and it only cost $250. Also, a lot of my friends had Palm IIIxe and they loved it. Relatively small, light, and somewhat stylish....

Pros: Small, light, good screen, lots of memory
Cons: some buttons hard to push with big fingers

OK, I've had a succession of Palms issued to me by employers over the past several years. First the Palm Pro. Then the Palm III, and now a Palm Vx.

I love it. I love having a daytimer that is compact enough to carry in my pocket, and rugged...

Pros: Slim, sleek, solid, crisp LCD screen
Cons: Pricey, monochrome

This could be the perfect Palm if it weren't quite so pricey. It comes with a generous 8 MB of memory to hold plenty of addresses, calendar events, memos and to-do items, plus additional software. The screen is a very crisp, very clear LCD screen, a big...
