Title: Excellent Buy Date: April 9, 2007
ProsEase of use. I have used many Palms and this is the most user-friendly Palm I have encountered. They have removed some features and added some features, which are all a step in the right direction. The sound is clear and with headphones it's even better. Very user friendly. The battery life is longer in this Palm than any others that I have used. Tons of storage is awesome.
ConsHaven't come across anything that I don't like about this Palm.

Review:I would highly recommend this Palm to anyone. It is very easy to use and has new features like a landscape view of the Palm, along with all the other standard Palm features. I have used 5 different Palm pilots and this one is definately worth the money. I would recommend buying the ScanDisc memory card because it is so easy to use between your PC, laptop or other products such as cameras.

Title: I love the Palm Tx Date: January 19, 2009
ProsI like everything about the Palm Tx itself and cannot get along without it.
ConsWhen I sync it on my computer, the calendar does not show. The calendar does show on the Palm itself. Everything else shows. I really need to see the calendar on my computer so this is terrible.

Title: Great PDA Date: November 23, 2008
ProsI love my PDA!!! I had been researching many PDA's for about six months or more. This PDA, has the most memory, the main reason I purchased this specific one. I like all the features it has to offer. I have had two other PDA's and this one is the best. The calender lets you look at four different views, one day, one week, one month, etc. The computer can be used to add different appointments or the PDA itself. It is easy to download and sync. I have not ever had so much fun creating resources for work that I could carry in my pocket.
ConsI am still learning about what it can do. I am a visual person, would have liked to have had the users guide in booklet form instead of needing to find it on the computer.

Review:I love my PDA!! I will not need to buy a personal planner this year.

ProsWi-Fi, bluetooth and beaming systems work great for transferring data and going onto the web to view websites or check email. Long battery life.
ConsCame with a flimsy cover that broke off at the hinge/seam. Needs a better cover/protector.
Miss the graffti (letter writing practice game) which came with past palm pilots.

Review:Over all I would purchase again.

Title: How did I ever live w/o this device? Date: October 6, 2007
ProsGreat Screen
Wifi is great
Access full websites on browser
This is organize your entire life in 2 hours
ConsIts hard to change from using Wifi to bluetooth and this runs the palm os 5 Allot of previous applications will not run on this device, or at least have some difficulty. This is probably be the application makers fault, but its a nice thought. Also, for the first couple of months the display was fine, but now the screen doesnt line up w/ the pen but this is only because I dropped it from the second floor balcony, still works though.

Review:All and all, if you really dont NEED this device, dont buy it. If you want this device, you might want to check out something that is a little cheaper. But you are getting what you paid for on this device (sorry, confusing, I know) What it boils down to it, is if you can easily afford it BUY THIS THING RIGHT NOW!

Title: Love It! Date: September 24, 2007
ProsI am a volleyball coach and I recently ordered my Palm TX to run a volleyball stat program for my matches. The handheld is so easy to use and it is saving me so much time. I am able to input information much faster than I thought I was going to be able to. The screen is decent and, although I haven't used it yet, I love the wireless and bluetooth capabilities that make transferring data much easier. I plan on using it for much more than my stats.
ConsIt powers down after a very short time even when the battery is completely charged.
I am still learning if there is an easier way to exit programs, like on windows.
I am still learning how to use it and have found nothing that makes me wish I didn't get it or oder a different type.

ProsThe convenient and display are definitely a pro. The feature are great
This is a good little unit Great for displaying pictures
ConsThe unit will not read the memory card. It recognizes the card but will not read the data. That is a real disappointment since it keeps me from access the number if files I need to access. I prefer the LifeDrive because of the harddrive space but after it was stolen, I replaced it with thiis because of the price.

Review:Given the choice again, I would go with the LifeDrive model althoiugh this unit is good. If the card reader worked, this would be a a lot better. It is average compared to other PDA's

Title: Palm t/x handheld Date: May 22, 2007
ProsI really like the screen size and clarity. It's very easy to read. This product is new to me I had an Axim pocket pc before and really loved the product. The tines broke and can't be replaced. I notice in the Palm then area to plug is a heavier metal connection. More sturdy then the Axim connector. The Palm TX come with an excellent program for syncing with my dell pc. The sync is quick and downloads are easy. I also got the keyboard for this product. It's okay.
ConsThe programs don't move like in the Dell Axim pocket pc. I'm used to windows and the easy maneuvering between programs. There's no back arrow and you have to get out of the program before moving on to another.

Review:I am new to this product and I need to work with this unit for a while. I'm sure that it will grow on me.

ProsOut of the box easy to use. Downloads quickly. I use Oracle calendar not Outlook and haven't had any problems synching. I listen to music, read digital books, show photos, check email, play games, and edit documents on this device. The only thing I wouldn't do is surf the web - screen is just too small for the clutter of web pages. (But I do it in a pinch.) I have beat up this little device for almost 2 years and it is still working fine - even with the teeth marks from my cat gracing the corners.
ConsSee above re surfing the web...that's about the only thing I don't use it for.
