Palm T|X

I am very very luck in how i got my TX. It was two week before the launch was due and i was looking to get a hand held computer. So i took a trip down to curry's i think it was and asked to take a look at what they had in stock. Luckily it was a young work experience chap who hadn't worked there very long, he showed my to the glass case where they were held and it immediately grabbed my eye with the blue tint and huge screen. And i asked him how much it was. And he replied "im not quite sure mate, one minute" and so he came back and told me that he didn't know because that's the only one they have in stock. I asked if i could buy this display model (blissfully ...  Read the complete review

I bought my Palm Tx 18 months ago now and have got great use out of it. First things first: this is not a device to buy if you are not tech-savvy as you need to do a lot of hacking away at it in order to get the most from it.

I've owned a Palm Pilot since they first came out back in the "90's and I am happy to say I've been enjoying the degree of progress they have made over the many years. I carry my TX with me everywhere I go. It has been a constant companion that I cherish. Years ago my sales manger ask me...to look at the sales floor at (Merisel USA) and tell him what I saw. I gave a standard surface answer (lame). He said what you see is young minds with unlimited memory potencial... & us older folks need to use everything possible to keep up & assist our memory. He showed my his Palm Pilot - explained & demonstrated it to me. Then I knew I had to have one. ...  Read the complete review
