I bought this product recently and have been extremely impressed. Yes, I realise that I am 4 years behind the times, but its cheap now and was over £500 back then. So I see it as a bargain.
First things first as a Personal Organiser this is an amazing machine, it contains all the software that you need for organising your life. But if you are looking for more than just a To-Do list, Calendar, Contacts etc. then you will need to have a quick look on the web for extra software.
I recommend TCPMP for Video Playing, it plays a multitude of formats very well. QuickWord and QuickSheet (Unfortunately costs money) are the Palm versions of Office Word and Excel. SplashID for everything to store secretly. pTunes for music playback (MP3s etc.). Agendus Pro to improve the Organising functions and of course Monopoly for those rather boring of times.
The UX50 also has built in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth which can be very useful and the browser supplied is actually very impressive. The build quality is good and the twisty screen is very cool. The machine also has a built in camera which isn't great quality, but can be good fun.
The only problem really is that battery life isn't great, you will get a maximum of 1 hour 10mins of video playback. But for general use its pretty good.
I would recommend it as it is good fun and quite cheap for what it is.
