Advantages: easy to use, wide range of applications

Disadvantages: expensive, no color

It's been a long time since I had this "little toy" from Palm, and besides its high price, I never thought it was a mistake to buy it.

For me it was a very usefull gadget, mainly at work. I recognize that when I bought this Palm it was a whim, but I gave it a lot of usage.

The apllication that I used more was the Agenda. Every time I had a meeting I wrote it down in my Palm with an alarm and I never forgot anything. I used to use a paper agenda but I always forgot to see it, so It was'n usefull to me. From this time with the Palm alarms this didn't happen.

Other apllications that came with the Palm and were very usefull to me, are Notepad, Expenses aplications and so on.

I also installed some other programs in order to work with Excel sheets, word documents, that were very usefull so I could carry office documents easily to my house. Besides they were not so powerfull that the applications that we have now, they were very usefull to me.

And, since everything in life is not work, I also installed some games that made me spend very good times in transport to work.

The only thing that I missed form my Palm V was that its screen was not in colors, but since when I bought it there were not color handhelds it didn't bother me very much.

Now it is a relic, but in its moment, it was a kind of revolution in this handheld world, and in spite of its price I took enough advantage of it until someone gave to me a new Palm m515 qith color, much memory, etc. that made me to "rejoice" this Palm.

And now I will leave here some technical information of it:

Conectivity: Infrared, serial port, modem (optional)
Applications included: Agenda, Notepad, Check list, etc.
Size: 11.25 cm x 7.75 cm

Sorry for the meassurements, but I m from Spain.
