...it can nevertheless be the Palm IIIx Organizer useful, however in no case as importantly as my PERSONAL COMPUTER is, or is of Handy! With a format of 8x12 cm, Palm III. Organizer is a very practical device. It fits ideally into the palm of the hand or into the pocket or the file suitcase. He functions with two batteries alkaline AAA, has a fencing under that itself the screen is. A quite big screen (6x6 cm), under it a small face with four illustrations ... ...the most important functions of Palm III. (included the green button for switching on and off of the device). 3Com which developed the Palm III also thought of the important light function so that one has no problems too in darkening. An a little longer pressing onto the green ON/OFF switch brings a pleasant green light into the screen. I can not yet answer whether however the batteries will hold for a long time with this function and this screen ...

I have had the palm pilot for just under a year now. I had previously tried out one of the psion models and returned it after it stopped working for the nth time - I found it to be fairly unreliable. On the other hand the palm pilot is incredibly reliable, the only time it doesn't work is when the batteries run out!This model has 4Mb of memory which is more than enough. The calendar is very useful and runs on ad infinitum. The telephone/address book ... ...most useful aspect of the palm pilot. Whenever I attend lectures I am able to write just as fast as I would with a pen and paper. The trick is to use the digital keyboard display as the handwriting recognition is not good enough to be able to write at these speeds. Admittedly these are really the main features that I use and so a colour display is not very useful to me which makes the palm IIIx ideal. The serial cable allows you to connect it up ...

...More research revealed the palm pilot range but also showed the jump in cost - i decided not to bother. Would you believe the very next day i spotted a collegue with one, 10 minutes later i was sold. The graffiti hand writing recognition is so easy to learn that i was writing in sentances inside 5 minutes. It came with all the apps i needed, and i placed an order that afternoon for the palm IIIx (only the palm V was avaliable at the time, more money, ... ...the software avaliable for the palm (www.palmgear.com) and now have the thing nearly full of useful tools, apps, and games. I use it every day for things as simple as making appointments in my diary to getting phone number and read webpages that i have downloaded to my pilot every morning. Things have moved on now since i purchased my pilot and I think id opt for the palm Vx with 8mb and a slightly faster processor or possibly look at the IIIc with ...

The Palm 3x is great, as the cost is much less than any other PDA, especially the 5x. They are basiccally the same machine, but the 5X costs way more and is not worthe the extra, even if the screen is slightly better. It is easy to read in the dark with the backlight but you have to be careful not to damage it.
Apart from that, the actual design is great. It's a nice size to fit into the palm of your hand or trouser pocket. I would recommend it ...

3com's Palm 3x is great. The cost is brilliant compared with other organisers that are available and its a good offer compared with the 5x models. The cost is a lot less, but he loss in features isn't that great.
The design iss good, the size is perfect to fit into pockets or carry around and the battery life is reasonable. You will be need a few spares though. Software included is basic, but great, however the numebr of users of the Palm Pilots ...

Manufacturer's product description
The new Palm IIIx is one example that proves the sequel can be better than the original! A more advanced extension to the Palm III, the Palm IIIx provides twice the memory of the Palm III, includes an enhanced display, and delivers dozens of capabilities to make life easier! In a category of products where 2MB of memory is considered more than sufficient, the Palm IIIx offers a large 4MB capacity. This means you can instantly access and store up to 12,000 address, five years of appointments, 3,000 to-do items, 3,000 memos, 400 emails, and tons of applications! With the enhanced LCD screen on the new Palm IIIx organizer, you don't have to strain one bit to read this data you've stored. The advanced display technology improves viewing in dim or bright lighting conditions with its razor sharp picture. The serious road warrior considers fast and easy synchronization capabilities in their PDA, a must-have. The Palm IIIx builds on their synchronization technology of past Palms, to bring you the fastest synchronization yet. The HotSync cradle is your convenient means to quickly exchanging data between your PC and your Palm IIIx. The HotSync cradle also doubles as a battery charger! You may also choose to exchange data with other Palm devices using the infrared beam incorporated into the Palm organizers. You can exchange business cards, phone lists, memos, and even add-on applications through the IR port. You simply hold down a button and beam it over! You can even use third-party beaming applications to make use of IR phones and printers with your Palm IIIx! Even more expansion possibilities are available with the open connector slot that lets you easily add hardware components and customize your Palm IIIx. You will be able to add pagers (when available), and memory card upgrades for even more data storage. The Palm IIIx is Internet ready with TCP/IP software included to enable Internet based applications and email. All you need is the Palm Modem optional accessory (located in the Accessories link on this page), to take advantage of this valuable functionality. You'll be able to read and reply to emails remotely and exchange back-up data between your PC and your Palm IIIx. Small and powerful, the Palm IIIx lets you store, share, and access the critical bits of information you need daily. After you try it, you'll wonder how you go by for so long without the power of a Palm.

I recently purchased my Palm Z22 due to downgrading from a Sony Clie X70v due to the size of the previous handheld and as a wheelchair user it was way too big for me to carry around with me.
Upon receiving my Palm Z22 I noted the usual Palm packaging... more
