Palm m515 Handheld

Pros: Compact, powerful
Cons: Palm no longer carries, Avantgo issues

I've had the Palm 515 PDA since 2002 and five years later, this thing still works. I am impressed that it's lasted so long in this age of throwaway electronics. I bought it to stay organized and found it has many useful features. The calandar syncs ...

Pros: Color, Documents to Go software
Cons: Palm service is poor at best, Hot Sync driver

I have been a dedicated Palm user for almost 4 years. The Palm m515 I think has made me reconsider my thinking for the future. I have owned my Palm m515 for a little over 6 months and was truly happy with it until recently. The pre-installed...

Pros: Bright Color screen, 16mb of memory, and easy to use OS.
Cons: Older palm technology

I purchased my palm m515 three years ago, since then I have not had any problems with it. The color screen is bright enough to be easily seen in any light. The built in rechargeable battery provides enough power for up to two days of regular use. Its ...

Pros: Durability, reliability, usability, excellent software compatibility, fast and easy synchronization with Macs and PCs
Cons: Maybe the higher-than-average purchase price I paid? But you get what you pay for!

I can tell you from extensive experience using my m515 that it has definitely turned out to be one of the better purchases I've ever made. I bought it approximately two years ago, as I had some friends and co-workers who were always touting their PDAs ...

Pros: Thin, Light, Bright Screen, Palm Universal Connector
Cons: Low 160x160 Resolution, 16mb Memory, OS4 instead of OS5, Pricey for today

Ive owned my Palm M515 for about a year now and i've enjoyed our time together but it seems we must part now in early 2004 as it has become outdated. The M515 was never the top of the Palm line and even now, its too much dough to flush out for what its ...

Pros: Compact organizer I can easily carry just about anywhere
Cons: Price, susceptibility to electrostatics, battery life

I asked for $150 to $200 PDA from my secretary and this $400 Palm m515 is what I received. (I think the secretary likes me.) I couldn’t complain. I use it for organization, mainly. Rather than carrying around a thick notebook, I envisioned this ...

Pros: Functionality, wide range of software available
Cons: quality, "graffiti" alphabet

I have to say that my Palm m515 has been a joy to use. I use it to organize all of my appointme ...

Pros: * Color *Easy to navigate *Easy to connect to computer *Easily downloads pictures *Compact size
Cons: *Batteries drain quickly *Inconvenient to write on

I recently received the Palm515 as a gift. I am not too good with computers and I have found the Pa ...

Pros: Color; fast; lots of storage; card slot
Cons: little heavy; no music; can only be used as a pda;

The Palm M515 is a very nice pda with many options. For example there is a slot where you can put m ...

Pros: Great software options, easy sync, easy to learn.
Cons: Graffiti not always easy to use. Data entry harder than paper.

I love my PDA. I was a serious paper user, and resisted changing over for a long time, but I have no regrets.

I am a Franklin Covey (www.franklincovey.com) user, and have been for years. By the holiday season last year, my organizer had grown...

Pros: Slim, lightweight, color, expandable, good memory, good battery life.
Cons: Not hi-res screen, screen hard to see clearly outdoors.

I have used a number of different handheld devices, and I must say, that the Palm m515 is my favorite of all of them. I recently returned my Tungsten T for the m515 because I really did not need the Bluetooth, and the hi-res screen is not really worth...

Pros: Clear and sharp display, color, MMC slot
Cons: Low-rez display

I bought my Palm m515 because my previous Palm device (a Palm III) broke after four years of continuous use.

My two key requirements are flash memory (instead of ROM, so the sytem software can be upgraded) and a color display. At the time of...

Pros: Well built, solid, easy to read screen in all light situations
Cons: leather cover can accidently turn on the unit.

UPDATE MAY, 2006 - Well, unfortunately, my 515 died in April 2006. For some unknown reason, it just stopped synching. I could enter data into the Palm, and it worked fine on it's own, but it would not communicate with anything else. Didn't matter which ...

Pros: Offers the trademark simple format, sleek form factor, color, OS 4.1, SD/MMC, & more.
Cons: No capabilities for sound formats, voice recording, video player.

I am into my fourth Palm product to date. It started with the Palm Pilot Professional 1MB, then to the m100 2mb, next the m505 8mb and now the m515 16mb. Before owning a pda, I've always carried a sensible calender/notebook cum clutter. Invariably, I ...

Pros: Great Palm OS software, the fixed version of the Palm M505.
Cons: Small Screen still, not a Pocket PC and no voice recorder.

This PDA is a outstandingly useful. The outside aluminum case is great looking, it shows a fashion statement. I wrote down all of my addresses and phone numbers in the phone book, have my day planned out with the schedule book and am able to play...
