Palm Vx Reviews

I bought my Palm Vx 3 years ago now in the US, before they we available in the UK. Why listen to me? Well I used mine every day in those 3 years and a lot of that was hooked up to my mobile phone using it professionally. What I?m going to tell you: 1) Quick overview 2) What you can do with it with a little ...  Read the complete review

The second in a series of "bonsai ops": (hopefully) detailed ops in a whopping concise 250 words. Enjoy (and comment if you will). ***** Concept: A pocket electronic diary with much more -the Palm VX holds dates, appointments, contacts, accounts, email, to-do lists, games... the list is endless. ...  Read the complete review

I have owned my Palm now for nearly 6 months and to be honest I don't think I would be able to live without it. I was lucky in the fact that I only paid £150 in buying it from a friend. I originally decided to buy when after having a play on one in a local WH Smith's store, and was hooked. I decided on a Palm mainly ...  Read the complete review

I am lucky enough to own both a Palm Vx, and a HP Jornada Pocket PC. If you like gimmicy gadgets, then the Pocket PC will be your thing, otherwise, stick with the Vx! With a whopping 8Mb of RAM, you aint' gonna run out of room on this baby for a long time (unless you fill it with games!) The Vx is an organiser, and this is ...  Read the complete review

Palm and other PDAs are great for mainly one thing. Organising. Most people get stuck at this stage, and end up using the excellent Palm Vx for addresses, telephone numbers and diary dates. For this the Palm Vx is superb, but I would question the need for a fairly expensive Vx to fulfill these roles. Vindigo ...  Read the complete review

Perhaps the main reason for choosing the Vx over other PDAs is the fact it really does fit into a pocket without producing embarassing bulges. I've used a Psion for many years and felt rather treacherous going over to rival American products, but I think the Palm fits my style of working the best. So, before rushing out, ...  Read the complete review

I love gadgets, and I was lucky enough to win a Palm Vx from Workthing.com. At the time, it was absolutely brilliant because I had been accepted on the performing arts course at college, unfortunately I was unable to begin due to those 'circumstances'. I haven't turned it on or charged it, and in the process ...  Read the complete review

I work as an IT Technician and was bought a Vx to try and organise the mess that was logged jobs and paper work. It was the best thing ever purchased! The hotsync to Outlook 2000 was very useful and allowed me to share a task list between desktop and palm pilot - the to do list and calander also organised me almost immediately! They ...  Read the complete review

Once you have mastered Graffiti, which takes next to no time, then the Palm is an excellent tool to have at one's disposal. It has an advatage in terms of size over the Psion in that you can really put it in a shirt, jacket or trouser pocket. The software supplied which allows you to connect the cradle to you computer and synchronise ...  Read the complete review

recently my extremely useful palm III on which i depended to organise my entire professional and social life started to malfunction an go onto to fail to display anything except the reset screen after which the screen would disintegrate as if something were eating the display away. After a lot of though i went for the Palm Vx as: 1- ...  Read the complete review

I bought my Palm Vx 6 months ago, after deciding that then was the time to get rid of my ageing and dull-grey Palm III for something smaller and sexier with more memory. Since then I've purchased some shareware (most notably Action Names Datebook from Iambic, which is by far the greatest app I use on a day-to-day basis), and also ...  Read the complete review

I am a palm fan. This is my fourth now and it keeps going from strength to strength. There are some obvious shortfalls when comparing it to other platforms but what it does it does very well and what it does not yet do it will do soon. The basics: Out of the box it comes with everything you need to ditch your filofax ...  Read the complete review

Having used the Psion series of PDA for about 5 years, I was hesitant to move onto a different platform. Even during the first week of use I was unsure if it was a wise buy. Now though, after around a months use, I can safety say it was a great buy. What Palm fail to promote adequately is that there is a *huge* back catalogue ...  Read the complete review

I'm well and truely converted from the old paper based filofax which I was so loath the give up. This little organiser is now something I can't imagine being without and I seem to learn more that I can gety out of it every day. There's just so much software out there and it's huge memory means it just never flags. ...  Read the complete review

There can be only one thing better than the Palm Vx, a colour version in the same format! Until it comes along I won't be swapping mine for anything. I bought my first Palm Pilot about 3 years ago and it changed my life. I am totally disorganised by nature and had tried various paper organisers including Time Manager and ...  Read the complete review

I had a PalmPilot, which I loved passionately for its functionality, but I wanted more memory. Then I saw the Palm Vx - sleek, huge amounts of memory, and an incredibly clear screen. Love at first sight. There's a vast amount of reasonably - priced shareware and commercial software out for the platform (try ...  Read the complete review
