Good PDA - But OS is Buggy

Strengths: Screen size is big, bright, clean and crisp. Built-in WiFi and BlueTooth very useful. NVRAM saves data in the event of battery depletion.

Weakness: Battery life, BUGGY OS, no Palm support!

This is my third Palm (fifth PDA) and I purchased it to replace my Tungsten E (which I liked very much). The integrated WiFi & BlueTooth, bigger screen with landscape/portrait capabilities and larger memory were most appealing. The device looks cool and the sound is much improved with the larger speaker. It's a bit heavier too, making me much less worried about breaking it. HOWEVER, this device...

King of the hand helds

Strengths: Bluetooth, screen size, battery life, movies, mp3, built in speaker, wireless internet, non volatile memory, fits in my pocket, makes my bed, cooks my food....

Weakness: wireless is only B, plastic body, cannot read it in the sunlight. SD card limited to 2 Gig.

So your looking for a hand held that does everything? You want a phone, MP3, wireless, ect? Stop reading and go buy one of those new fangled phones. But when the battery on that phone goes dead so you cannot call anyone because you were playing games or listening to MP3s, don't come crying to me. If your going to have a phone get a phone. If you want everything else, along with that phone, get a...

Palm TIX - 3 month review

Strengths: Great unit size, screen rotates, wifi and bluetooth, SD card

Weakness: Build quality, battery life when using wifi, playing movie files, rare but random reboots, slightly narrow screen and inconsistant hotsync cable connection

I bought the TX after my Tungsten E2 screen broke (user error I might add!) 3 months ago. Although I am very happy with the TX my older E2 felt much nicer to use. I'm not keen on the plastic finish of the TX against the steel finish of the E2. The screen is better to look at on the TX but slightly narrower than on the E2 which makes Graffiti a little bit more difficult than before, that along...

Palm TX

Strengths: Its Pure Palm, Simple, Effective, Usefull, great battery life as a PIM

Weakness: Battery Life not so good on WiFi

I'm an upgrader from a Palm 515, and I actually like Graffiti. But I find with the TX I use the "displayed Keyboard" mode better, and find it easy and fast. Overall menus and functions are well done. The new display is very clear, and crisp. The hotsync operations are very fast, and the Excel/Word/PDF capability is great. The Palm TX is very convenient for reviewing and making minor changes to...

Excellent Palm

Strengths: Fast, thinner than old palm

Weakness: Some bundled software doesn't work without additional $, Graffiti harder to use

This replaced my Tungsten (original model), which finally died. Once I worked out that my firewall (Norton, which is more and more problematic) was hanging up the installation, it installed great. It is a nice improvement over the previous. My only two complaints are that the graffiti is harder to use: there are some letters (k, t, i) that I just can't do with graffiti, and I was forced to use...

The Hardest PalmOS Device To Beat

Strengths: Excellent screen, built-in WiFi, perfect weight, memory card slot, very nice software bundle.

Weakness: No voice recording (!), does not come with cradle

I had a Clie NR70V, and loved it, but after a while it just got too heavy to carry around (unless I had a briefcase or something) When it came time to replace it, I looked at a few others, but they were too light to be comfortable to hold. Not only is the TX very fast, with a great screen, a nicely enhanced PalmOS, built in WiFi and memory card capability, but it's weight is substantial enough,...

Palm TX

Strengths: Much faster than past PDA's

Weakness: A little low in memory

So far I really haven't had any problems except not having enough memory, but hopefully a memory card will fix that. I really love haveing the built in WI-FI card and not having to carry a WI-FI card like I had to in the past. Its a nice bright, big screen. Would recommond this to anyone!

Good enough

Strengths: Great screen, Wi-Fi, bluetooth, Music.

Weakness: No Mic! Limited bluetooth. Wi-Fi empties your battery.

I have had Palm IIIc, and Zire71 before. Most of the other reviews are correct, based on my experience. Great screen, battery life, etc. I've got the TX mainly because of Wi-Fi and bluetooth. The "problem" with bluetooth is that is has a limited list of phones you can link to. Is has a "general BT" option but that may or may not work with your phone. I suggest you know wether the TX supports your...

Palm TX works well

Strengths: Sturdy, bright screen, easy to use

Weakness: Battery not user-replacable

Worked right out of the box. Had it connected to our home 802.11b WiFi network in less than a minute and was surfing the web from all over the house. The controls are fairly intuitive. The unit is light, but still feels sturdy. The screen is clear and easy to read.

Best affordable WI-FI PDA in the market

Strengths: Integrated Wi-Fi (IEEE 802.11b),IR Port, Bluetooth; large screen; sleek, compact design.

Weakness: None

I used to have a Palm Vx, then tried Pocket PC HP 1945 (great but not integrated Wi-Fi) , and now returned to Palm. This Palm TX model has almost all the features you will need, excellent large bright color display and is very easy to use. There is a nice status bar at the bottom of the screen that gives you access to valuable tools like: Find, Menu, System Info (Time), Bluetooth control, Wi-Fi...

Palm T|X

The market in standalone PDAs is in serious decline as smart phones get cheaper and regular cell phones get smarter, both of which are a lot more fun than even the most stylish handheld computer. The pioneer in this category, Palm, has already shown that it can make great combo units with its popular Treo, but it refuses to give up the PDA market for dead. Its new and generally excellent T|X...

Palm T|X

The Palm TX is definitely a step in the right direction for Palm. While they have released WiFi equipped devices in the past, none bring it all together quite as effortlessly as the TX. The hardware is simple yet effective and the included software suite is quite impressive. Whether used for business or pleasure, the TX will deliver true WiFi capabilities as well as most laptops we've encountered...

Palm T|X Review

Palm's latest high end PDA packs a great feature set yet a mid-range price of only $299. It's currently the least expensive PDA offering both Bluetooth and WiFi. It's got a high res plus 320 x 480 display, 128 megs of persistent memory for storage and a built-in MP3 player.
