    "Overall Great PDA...Once you figure out how it works."

    by ohionormans on March 29, 2005

    Pros: Bluetooth, Big screen, Sleek Design, MP3 & Movie player, 256MB!!!, can use as a Flash Drive on any computer!

    Cons: Tried to import software from old PDA and it "crashed ALOT"

    Summary: This is a really great PDA once you figure out that you can't load "less than reputable" software on it. Once I quit trying to import all the old software from my Tungsten E and started from scratch, I didnt have any more problems. In my opinion it still needs a ROM update to keep it a little more compatible and stable, but I know that palm will work out the (very few) bugs that it has. Overall, if you are starting new, this PDA is for you. If you are upgrading from another PDA, beware that you might have to re-enter or manually load some information. Once I started from scratch, and got a clean install on the rom upgrade (free from palm support website) It hasnt crashed once. You also have to figure out that the 256MB provided memory is split into two halves, one part for system files and one part for your files. It's not as easy to backup this way, and some of the programs i.e. Documents to Go have a little trouble figuring out where to find things when you move them from one memory side to the other. Overall I would highly recommend this PDA, just be sure to read the instructions and a few forums BEFORE you start to use it.
