I'm hooked! A year and a half ago, I bought my a Palm IIIx. 4 mb of memory and a plastic case. I found the software to be intuitive and powerful. I quickly adapted to the Graffiti program, and found the Palm an indispensable part of my life. And...
Pros: Small, fast, durable and stylish Cons: No flexible protection of information
This is my fourth Palm. Wow. After some disappointments with the III series, the Vx is the perfect PDA. Small, stylish, and DURABLE!. I've had my Vx for over 6 months now (Sept. 2000). The screen still works like new. The batteries never go down (the...
Pros: Fun little thing, works well, good battery life, clear display, etc. Cons: serial port, ugh.
Well, the Palm m505 is out now, so I'm sad to see my Vx slowly be pushed out the market. But what can ya do? .. anyone wanna trade their m505 for my Vx?.. I'll give a keyboard too! ... Well, I doubt that'll happen anytime soon. But it's a good product...
Pros: Great screen, great RAM, great size, great backlight, great PDA Cons: Price could be lower, no color screen
I have been a long-time Palm user. I have had a PalmPilot Pro (with the whopping 1 MB upgrade!) for 3 years. The Palm OS is the best thing going out there. However, it wasn't keeping up with all of the new applications and online info I could get for...
Pros: Easy to use, good programs, and sleek design Cons: none
Basically, I needed a date book and an address book. The Palm V at first seemed like a good choice. However, the added memory that comes with the Vx is extremely welcomed. Now, I can have many more additional programs on my PDA. For example, I have...
Pros: Accessibility, battery life, versatility Cons: haven't found any yet
I purchased the palm Vx as I needed to be able to refer to Word/Excel documents and deal with my e mail while travelling.
I have not been disappointed. The Palm Vx does everything I require of it. With Documents to go version 3.1 I can now edit and...
Pros: Compact, speed, memory, weight. Cons: lack of wordprocessor, standard launcher, no dtmf tones.
With the Palm V/Vx, PalmComputing sets another trend in the world of PDA's. The slim shiny appearence of the Vx gives it that serious business-look to overcome the geekfactor often associated with PDA's. The Vx doesn't do more or less then it's less...
Pros: Much more Information Cons: Much more expensive
When I decided to purchase a Palm, I went to epinions.com to see wich one was better. I was not sure if the difference between the Vx (8MB) and V (2MB) models was enough to pay more US$ 100.
My boss is a palm freak and told he have not used...
The Palm Vx beats the competition from Handspring in looks: the curvy body of the Vx is stylishly sleek. Don't let the looks fool you - there's plenty of power inside.
The unit features 8 megs of RAM and version 3.5 of the PalmOS. It weighs in...
Pros: Slim, a lot of memory, great screen & battery Cons: Not good in the dark
The Palm Vx is the best Pilot available. With 8mb of memory (vs. 2mb for the other models) it has more than enough memory for many programs and downloaded web pages. The sleek design and size make it attractive and easy to carry.
The battery...
Pros: fast, sexy, huge storage Cons: calendar could use some more work
This is my first PDA, and I love it. The design is sleek (especially if you ditch the lame cover they give you and buy the hard case), and the device itself is speedy and allows for great customization to suit your needs. The writing you need to use...
Pros: Built in rechargeable battery, Slim design Cons: No built in wireless connectivity, No color
As part of my job, I get to play with a lot of new toys and gadgets, I had a Palm Pro for a couple of years and it served me well, but when I got upgraded to the Vx, I was really impressed with all that 3Com has accomplished with these handy little...
Pros: As others have commented. Cons: A few, which I've focused on here.
(Updated April 8, 2001)
Given the very thorough reviews of the Palm Vx (see http://mmmm.epinions.com/cmd-review-75A3-52BEA83-39E665F8-prod2 for example), I will not write a review as much as add some comments based on my heavy use of this...
