PalmOne m500 Handheld Review
When I got this special discount, I was amazed! 80% discount at $39.99! A very good deal to get PalmOne m500 Handheld. It is the smallest handheld running on Palm OS (yes smaller than the Vx and the m505). It also has the clearest screen. It comes with around $200 of bonus software, something the Vx lacks. The screen is much better (it is not black and white, but displays 16 different shades from black to white).
Palm is known to be more economical when compared to other handheld. Palm handhelds batteries last around a month. Palm has 10’s of thousands of software programs (around half of it is free). If you are looking for a PDA with great features, accesories, software, and mobility choose Palm.
Brief PalmOne m500 Handheld Technical Details:
- Built-in 8 MB memory stores thousands of contacts, appointments, to-do items, and notes
- New, advanced monochrome LCD screen makes it easier to see in dim light and in bright sunlight
- New Secure Digital Card/MultiMediaCard expansion slot for additional memory and functionality such as a dictionary/thesaurus, games, and more
- Native USB cradle allows faster HotSync operations
- Windows and Macintosh compatible–includes desktop software for both platforms
PalmOne m500 Handheld has several advantages you can exploit, including SD card expansion slot, USB Universal connector, better case buttons, Mobile Internet Kit software, and a vibrating alarm. The only drawback I could think of is there are not many software improvements in Palm OS 4.0.
