the use of revo psion as a cell phone

Advantages: it is too good, portable and ery usefull.
Disadvantages: it cannot use a sim card for those who want to use it s a cell phone.

Dear producer, My name is francis uko and l'm from Reupublic of Benin, l like the product revo but by problem is that l expected to use it as a cell phone is only it could use a sim card. All the programs inside are all good and all l hereby ask for is if l can get one that can use sim cards. when l bought it, l loved it because it was very portable and l call use it for almost everything l want to use it for; it was a little bit fragile that is ...
...cracks both inside and outside but its use is very easy not anly for me but for all my good friends who bougt it too. I think this product can go through the whole world if only yopu the producers can try and do what l sujested about making it capable of using sim cards and in this case, people including l will buy it in abundance because it it and will be a phenomenon. This is my mail univerzalfame@yahoo.ca and l really need you reply. Your Customer ...

The Original Laptop

Advantages: It's very portable
Disadvantages: hard to find now, but worth the effort

Sadly My Psion is on it's last legs, the hinges where the screen flips up are broken............it still works great just needs a new body, a bit like myself. My wife bought me my Psion Series 3 years ago, and I have used it continuously since then. The basic unit is 16.5cm * 2.2cm *8.5cm, which is a bit bigger than the PDA's going around just now. At it's heart is an NEC V30 7.7Mhz processor. I know what your thinking 7.7Mhz very slow. Well by ...
...many lengthy documents comfortably. The Psion has 1Mb of memory which can cope with a large quantity of info such as Word processor files, database files, and spreadsheet files. It also has a Spreadsheet, which has all the basic functions and a few more. It has a database, which can hold several hundred records. I've used my database to keep track of all the videos/DVD's we have hired. We rate them out of ten just in case we wish to watch one again. ...

Psion Revo Plus overall review

Advantages: Fast, compact, some good aplications e.g. Word
Disadvantages: Starting to get more diifficult to find programs, and relativly fragile

...games via infrared but now Psion users are declining and so finding someone you know with a Psion can be quite difficult. When buying second hand, check the screen respnds to taps, and the keyboard works well (the keyboards keys work lose after a while) also if possible play a sound-this can help a LOT becuse a common fault with Revo's is the wire coming from the battery snapping and if when you play a sound it turns off think twice before buying. ...
...are the fact that: 1-No backlight 2-Memory not upgradeable 3-Fragile (especialy screen. The 16mb on a plus model is almost always fine becuase files take up little space on a Psion.. So if you need a keyboard but dont want a laptop and need a long battery life... the Revo may just be the ticket. ...

Psion Series 7 PDA

Advantages: Portability, long battery life, durability
Disadvantages: Limited Internet Connectivity, somewhat dated

Indirectly, the Psion Series 7 is responsible for me finding ciao.co.uk in the first place; if a colleague from another website hadn't pointed out that someone had copied a review I'd written word for word on here six months ago, I'd have never seen the site. So, let's have a fresh, original review, eh? Released by Psion (now Psion Technologix) in 2000, the Series 7 was the latest in a lineage of unique looking Personal Digital Assistants. Like ...
...weighs around 5 pounds. The Psion weighs 12 ounces. You can imagine which one I throw in a book bag when I'm heading to work. Battery life is also a major plus; on a full charge, the Psion can run for up to 8 hours, depending on what you're doing. I typically use it for writing and reading at work, and on the 90 minute trip each way to work, and it's an exceptionally slow day when it finally runs out of power. I've also used it on flights from England ...
