This product was a gift from my wife for Christmas. I was hoping for a home theatre system, so I was surprised. I wasn't very happy with it at first as it didn't have Dolby Digital surround sound, but I soon grew to love it and now I can't live without...

Pros: nice design,small,can fit anywhere
Cons: none

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: thin stylish durable well-priced convenient
Cons: maldesigned rocker switch (up/down)

The Palm Vx has long been known as the "executive model" due to its sleek design, sturdy construction, large memory, and ease of use. Only recently has Palm released units that deliver even more than the Vx (but they're based on the same design as the...

Pros: Small size, Flexible and Customizable, Synchronization with desktop applications
Cons: Bad constrast, lack of color, size of memory.

I purchased my Palm Vx in March 2000. Having the normal expectations of any new hardware; you read the product sheet, try to see through the sales talk and find what it is that you are *really* buying. The Palm Vx is one of the few purchases, where I...

Pros: Durable. Great OS. Grows on you!
Cons: Can't wear it on my wrist - yet! Learning curve.

My wife knew exactly what I'd want for Father's Day when three of our friends began "flashing" their PDA's around at nearly every opportunity and she'd see my eyes light up. She was going to "surprise" me and just purchase one but...

Pros: Sleek design, gobs of memory, breeze to use
Cons: Pricey, li-ion batteries.

There’s a reason that Palm is the undisputed king of portable handheld computers. The reason, to anyone who has owned one is completely apparent to anyone who has. Style never takes a back seat to function.
While the Palm Vx is a style freak,...

Pros: Easy to install, Huge amount of storage space, sleek light-weight design
Cons: price, included accessories

With the constant advancement in e-commerce, and nearly everything in our day-to-day lives becoming digital and portable, it is obvious why 3-Com's new Palms are taking off with such ferocity.

First Impression

The first thing that...

Pros: Extra Memory, Better Processor
Cons: Extra Cost May Make Palm V a Better Deal

Should you buy the Palm V or the Vx? Most of you know that the Palm Vx has more memory (at 8MB) than the Palm V (at 2MB). But there are additional advantages as well. In particular, the Palm Vx has a somewhat faster processor that speeds up the...

Pros: Now the coolest looking Palm is also the most powerful
Cons: still fragile and expensive

I bet a lot of people who bought the Palm V before October are really p!$$#D off about Palm's new pricing and the Palm Vx (wow, epinions censors the "p" word!). Imagine paying $400 in September for a 2mb Palm V, only to have the price fall to...

Pros: fit and finish, sleek metal body, 8 mgs. ram, loads of access. and software for it
Cons: the cheesy leather case it came with in the box

I recently purchased a Palm Vx. I was debating whether or not it was worth the money. I was also looking at the Palm M100 and the Palm 3xe.
I went with the Palm Vx and am very happy with my decision.

The M100 is compact and light,...

Pros: Small, thin, light, lots of memory (8 MB), great screen
Cons: Not compatible with older add on devices, turns on in pocket sometimes.

I first became a palm user back in 1996 when I bought the Palm Pilot Professional. It had 1MB of memory, was kind of bulky (by today’s standards), cost $400, and was by far the best organizer I had ever used up to that point. I later upgraded to the...

Pros: Screen viewable in bright sunlight, functional software, small size
Cons: None yet !!

I recently bought a Palm Vx after using an NEC MobilePro 770 for a year and will never go back to Windows anything again. As an example of the difference, Windows CE will not even sync with Outlook Express mail, two of the same company's products...

Pros: Small, easy to use
Cons: Expensive investment

If you are always on the go like me, the PalmVx can be a great thing to have. I used to be the type that had notes and my entire to do list scrawled on scrapes of paper shoved in my pockets. I always was forgetting things unless I wrote them down, so I...

Pros: sleek, compact, powerful, adaptable
Cons: a bit pricey

The Palm Vx is the best new product I've had my hands on in years.

If you're looking here you already know what the Palm is: a powerful PDA that will keep you on top of your calendar and contacts wherever you are, and give you beaucoup...

Pros: Size, style, capacity.
Cons: Price?

I've been using my Palm Vx for over a year now, and I find it absolutely indispensable! When I first started researching, I considered the DaVinci, Palm III, and Palm V (the Visor, Palm IIIx, IIIc, Vx weren't available at the time). I decided I really...
