The Bottom Line The Palm Tungsten T3 combines powerful business and multimedia features with a Schwarzenegger-size screen. Palm's entry-level handheld now has more memory and a faster processor. With a high-resolution color screen, a sleek design, an expansion card slot, and a $199 price tag, the Tungsten E will hit the handheld sweet spot for many consumers. This refresh of the first Tungsten-series Palm takes a good product and improves upon it. Audiophiles may be dissuaded by the lack of an MP3 player and stereo sound, but business users will fall for the Tungsten C's blazing performance. Palm finally has a well-priced handheld that can go toe-to-toe with Sony's midpriced CLIEs. Palm has created a slick and innovative PDA, but it faces serious competition from other attractive, high-end handhelds. Palm has managed to lower the entry-level bar with the inexpensive and ultrabasic Zire. The m130 is on the low end of the color-Palm spectrum, but it's a decent PDA for the price. The Palm m515has a lot going for it, but it lacks a clear competitive advantage over Sony's high-end CLIEs.
