Pros: Compact and sleek design, keys feel nice, beats Graffiti for inputting large amounts of data Cons: Keyboard shortcuts are hard to learn (for me), didn't work well with Palm m100 slim leather case, just found I didn't need it
The techno-idiot is back with another review of a Palm product, the Palm Portable Keyboard (OK, OK, so it was really made by Think Outside). Anyone who has read my previous reviews knows that I'm completely infatuated with my Palm m100. Of...
Pros: Snappy design and easy installation for the handheld killer app... Cons: ...but it doesn't work well and is hard to return!
Please forgive any thumping noises emanating from your computer. Having fallen in love with my Jornada 540, I soon purchased a Targus Stowaway Keyboard that allowed my new Pocket PC to function as an uber-laptop. The keyboard remains a great...
Pros: Fits in my purse. Almost full size keyboard. Keyboard shortcuts. Cons: A light touch means keys don't alway register. Too large for some. Requires hard surface.
During November 2003 I wrote all 50,000plus words of the first draft of my novel. I wrote it all on my Palm Vx, with Palm Portable Keyboard, and WordSmith word processor. Note: The Palm Portable Keyboard is a rebranded Stoway Portable ...
Pros: Unfolds quickly, compact, stylish Cons: Needs to rest on a flat surface, keys sometime slide around, expensive
I'll admit it: My handwriting is atrocious. There, I've said it. Normally, it's not a problem, except when I need to take notes quickly and accurately by hand. I can get one or the other, but not both; I either get everything down but can't read it,...
Pros: Full size keys, special menu keys, special character keys, very portable, solid vendor support Cons: Requires flat surface, smallish space key, clasp could be stronger
Finding the right portable computing device has taken me years. I was an early adopter of the Newton Message Pad, a late adopter of the Toshiba Libretto laptop, and lately a reluctant convert to the Palm platform. I will not truly be satisfied until a...
Pros: Beautifully crafted, the finishing touch for a PDA. Cons: Some of the special software functions can be hard to master.
Road warriors rejoice! The PDA has just become totally useful. I must admit that I have had second thoughts about my Palm Pilot since Day 1, because without a reasonably sized keyboard, data entry, report writing and all those things that you...
Pros: Folds up REAL small and very light weight Cons: Pricey
Who cares how this gem of engineering works, I just like to open, look at, and close my new Palm Portable Keyboard. I almost giggle when I observe the awesome design of this little package.
Pros: Durable, Small, Nice Feel Cons: PDA stand is not adjustable, Price
Having become unnaturally attached to my iPAQ, I recently began a campaign to accessorize a little. Okay, maybe more than a little... All right, I admit it, I'M ADDICTED! Stop pushing will you?! I MUST OWN EVERY ACCESSORY EVER INVENTED!! There, I said...
No other way to put it. The functionality and flexibility offed by the Palm and clones like the Handspring Visor make a valuable addition to the office. But you also have to recognize the limitations to the native input devices. Graffiti is slow, and...
Pros: fast data input, great portability, cool design Cons: requires flat surface, few international versions available
The recognition of handwriting on the Palm is useful and works great, but remains slower than entering data with a good old keyboard. There are several models of keyboards for Palm on the market, but what distinguishes the Stowaway from Think Outside...
Pros: Makes entering large amounts of data into your Palm a breeze Cons: Needs to be set on a flat surface - your lap won't do
Shortly after you purchase your first Palm, you realize you're going to spend lots more than the $300+ that you spent for the Palm itself. There's oodles of downloadable software, screen protectors, cases, styli, and, of course, keyboards.
Pros: Extremely compact, well-built, and good integration with Palm OS Cons: Can't type on lap; some driver software issues; no pass-through for modems, etc.
The first thing I thought when I opened the shipping box was, "Wow, that's a small box." And, of course, when I opened the retail box itself, I thought, "Wow, that's a tiny keyboard." It truly is the size of about two Palm III's...
Pros: VERY useful, well made, a conversation starter :) Cons: Have to buy a separate keyboard for each different PDA you own!
There are few things in life that raise eyebrows, rouse conversation, even pique interest. This keyboard is definitely one of them. I remember when I first received my visor keyboard, I must have spent the first 20 minutes, opening and closing, closing...
