Palm Tungsten T

Years ago I bought myself a Palm IIIc (in fact, I've reviewed that before and gotten myself a crown for it too!) and believed that I was holding the most advanced piece of miniature technology worldwide right in the palm of my hand! At the time, I was right - the Palm IIIc was stupdenous. Apart from the 8 megabytes of RAM and all the other features, it had a COLOUR SCREEN! - the first of it's kind. Things would never be the same again, or so I thought. The years passed, and my IIIc began to look a little bigger than some of the newer PDAs coming on the market. Eventually, it began to even look a bit dusty, and although it never failed me, I began to ...  Read the complete review

Ok - first I should confess that I recently sold my Palm Tungsten T and got myself an iPhone. And to be perfectly honest I have not regretted the switch. I wonn't go on about it here (see my iPhone review instead), but as PDAs go the iPhone tops the bunch! Anyway, if you don't want a device with telephonic abilities then this is not a bad option. The screen is very bright, and colours are rich. The case is brushed metal (either aluminium or steel) and the design is compact. The Top half slides up to reveal a stylus writing box. The stylus itself is a clever telescopic number which slots neatly into a magnetic hole in the ...  Read the complete review

I bought a Palm T series and after a year it developed a screen fault called screen drift. This means that in order to tap on an icon to activate a program I have to tap about 2cm below it. That means when the slider is shut I loose the use of the bottom row of icons on the screen. A hard reset will not fix it and Palm refuses to acknowledge the fault. The software bundle comes with it is poor. Sure there is a lot that comes with it but Documents to Go syncs very badly with Office applications and is slow and clumsy. Real Player for Palm is extremely basic and lacks many essential features. The Palm Desktop software is quite good but ...  Read the complete review

The Palmer tungsten T. is a fantastic little handheld computer. A few years ago I owned a compact IPAQ, but I found it slow, expensive and not very reliable. Recently, I began looking for a new handheld computer, and found the palm. It is very small light sleek and well built. The main thing I like about this product, is its size. Most of the other handheld computers that I've looked at in the shops are far too big, and I couldn't see myself carrying it around. However, with the palm it is much different. Palms have always been not as fast and not as powerful as the pocket PC equivalents. However, with the tungsten Palm have now brought ...  Read the complete review

Palm?s Tungsten is the latest technology and it combines good looks with lots of features. Palm is really showing off about its new slider which opens and closes to show the graffiti area. Palms are now so much more than personal organisers and they have progressed a lot in the last 2-3 years. The software bundle that comes with it is good and the tungsten can support mp3 playback. The screen is very clear and colourful and it even incorporates bluetooth. Altogether a decent package. ...  Read the complete review
