Sometimes Simple is Best!

byRichBoston Dec 4, 2000
64 Helpfuls 65 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 3 Comments
Pros Simple, Inexpensive, Works Great
Cons No Volume Control or Message Counter
Recommended it? Yes

By today?s high tech standards, especially for devices made to coincide with a PDA, which by its nature is ?high tech,? the Landware goVox digital recorder is almost an anachronism. Don?t get me wrong. This is not necessarily a bad thing.


While it?s hard to consider a digital... Read full review »

Recommended it? Yes

Since I've started regularly creating comic strips and writing editorials and reviews I've been using a digital voice recorder to take notes and record ideas. I got it about a year ago to log events at work and its use has changed a couple of times since then. Now that summer is arriving, I don't... Read full review »

Good, but could be better.

byseronac Sep 15, 2003
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Good, small PDA system with a lot of additional programs available.
Cons Stability and screen resolution could be better.
Recommended it? Yes

Here are the basics:

The Palm III is a good system, but there are much better ones out there now. You could probably get one for a great price now, but be prepared to squint a little at the screen and, if you like to try a lot of programs, for resetting it frequently. The Palm OS is easy... Read full review »

Inexpensive Alternative to Batteries

bybrscott73 Dec 1, 2003
3 Helpfuls 4 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros 1) Easy to install 2) Saves money on batteries
Cons 1) No warning before battery dies!! 2) Battery charge life is short
Recommended it? Yes

I bought this new on E-Bay for $10. Came in an un-opened package. Installation was simple. A word of caution, however. Be sure to back-up BEFORE putting in the new batteries. They come with no charge and you WILL lose all your data. You must charge it for a few hours before you can really use it... Read full review »

In the vast array of Palm add-on's the goVox Digital Voice Recorder is a truly useful one. The goVox is really no technological breakthrough, just a really smart idea, allow people to carry 'one' item, their palm and have both computing and voice capabilities on hand as needed.

A Marriage made in Heaven!

byrlmangum Oct 6, 2000
2 Helpfuls 3 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Easy to use, looks like part of the Palm Vx.
Cons Plastic case might crack. SEE UPDATE!
Recommended it? No

UPDATE: The Play/Record buttons are forever getting bumped which either plays the last memo OR records the ambient noise (sometimes stuff you didn't want recorded) until it runs out of time! This has become such a pain that I no longer use it. It also made the PALM just a little too "fat" to fit in... Read full review »
