Best bang for the buck!

byrcoury Apr 22, 2000
8 Helpfuls 9 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Much cheaper than the Vx with all of the good features; Palm OS 3.5
Cons No expansion slot; not compatible with all email systems out of the box
Recommended it? Yes

Palm had to do something to save themselves from upstarts like Handspring. The Palm IIIxe is a good start. It has the features of the Vx that are really good (lots of memory, good apps) without the one feature that makes the Vx a questionable deal: $$$. The Palm IIIxe is about $150 less than the...

Pros ease of use, lots of software available
Cons grafitii (especially punctuation)

I finally saved up the money to get myself a palm. First off, why palm you ask? Well, I have owned a Windows CE handheld (Windows CE 1.0) and discovered far more was available for the Palm. Although having Excel CE and Word CE were convienient (point 1 for CE), there are equivalents within the palm... Read full review »

Who Needs Color Anyway?

Pros easy to use, small
Cons have to buy modem for $100 to use email
Recommended it? Yes

I debated between the 2 new Palms (IIIC & IIIxe) for weeks before opting for the less expensive IIIxe. I am so happy I did. It was about half the price of the color model (I got mine for $250), and consequently half the weight. I don't go anywhere without it now. This was my first Palm and I wasn't... Read full review »

Pros It does so much - it's unbelievable!
Cons Battery power really runs down quickly.
Recommended it? Yes

I've waited for a couple of years to get a Palm. I've wanted one so badly that I finally gave in and bought the Palm IIIxe. I almost bought the IIIx but accidently came across an article for the upcoming new Palms so I waited an extra month for the IIIxe. I bought mine from Franklin Covey. It comes... Read full review »

Beware reliability issues!

Pros Reasonable price / performance.
Cons Major reliability issues.
Recommended it? No

This is my third or fourth Palm device (I'm losing count) and likely to be my last. For the second time in less than a year, it's unable to sync using the com port connection. I can get around this at work using I/R on my laptop, but it's slow and my home box has none. The digitizer randomly... Read full review »

Pros Cool toy, easy to learn, fast access to information
Cons Dim screen, cheap-feeling case
Recommended it? Yes

My company gave me the option of obtaining a Palm or refilling my Franklin Planner every year. I had been using the Franklin system for years, but I finally decided to make the leap into the world of Palm. Since they offered to reimburse up to $200 towards the PDA, I opted for the low-end model... Read full review »

Good starter PDA

bycchiou Jan 29, 2001
7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Lightweight, compact, necessary functionality is there, easy to learn and use
Cons cheap plastic casing, no wireless access
Recommended it? Yes

I received the Palm as a gift from my sister - after never having owned a PDA or a datebook planner for that matter, I was skeptical as to how much use the Palm would actually receive. In less than three weeks, I am beginning to wonder how I lived without it.

The basic functionality I... Read full review »

The Palm IIIxe-everything but color

Pros Upgradable OS, Cheap
Cons none
Recommended it? Yes

I've had my Palm IIIxe for about four months, and I must whole-heartedly say this is one of best PDAs on the market, dollar for dollar. Is it color? Well, no. Is it thin and lightweight like the Palm V series? No, not that either. But what it the Palm IIIxe is would be the best value of any PDA... Read full review »

Pros Great value, lots of memory, can use old II cradles
Cons Backlight poor, screen quality occasionally questionable
Recommended it? Yes

My Palm IIIxe was my second Palm device; my first was a PalmPilot II that died about six months ago. I gave myself a few months to decide if I could live without a Palm, and decided I couldn't. After researching all the available devices, I settled on a Palm IIIxe. It had excellent memory and... Read full review »

PalmOne IIIxe Personal Handheld Organizer

The Palm IIIxe handheld builds on earlier Palm III models by offering more memory and more options. Its 8 MB of RAM (four times the memory of the popular Palm IIIe) and 2 MB of flash ROM keep track of all your appointments, memos, to-do items, expense items, and e-mail, plus you can add thousands of third-party applications. Although the Palm IIIe and IIIx models have ample memory for many users, the Palm IIIxe better supports users who rely upon their organizer for data-heavy operations.The Palm IIIxe is more powerful than its predecessors, but it retains all of the Palm IIIx's and IIIe's convenience features. It measures a mere 4.7 by 3.2 by 0.7 inches and weighs 6 ounces. Backing up and exchanging information with desktop PCs and popular PIMs requires just a touch of a button on the included HotSync cradle. The infrared port allows you to instantly beam business card information, phone lists, data, and applications to other infrared- equipped devices. It also features a sharp backlit LCD screen, legible in both dim and bright light.The contents of the Palm IIIxe box include the Palm IIIxe handheld, a CD-ROM with an extensive assortment of Palm Desktop software applications, two AAA batteries, a DB-25 adapter, a HotSync cradle, a manual, and a Getting Started quick guide. You may further customize your Palm IIIxe organizer with third-party add-on peripherals such as modems or voice recorders. This device runs for approximately two months on just two AAA batteries and comes with a one-year manufacturer's warranty.
