Palm VII -- in this instance, "7" is not a lucky number

byBeauregard Dec 17, 1999
9 Helpfuls 10 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 1 Comment
Pros Style, simplicity
Cons email integration is bad, limited games, poor multimedia, not good in corporate...
Recommended it? No

Although Palm VII is a popular product, I've found it to not be as compelling as the other palm product I own, Casio's Cassiopeia E-105. At first blush, I was happy with Palm VII's capabilities in terms of information management and the elegant hardware design. I got a couple of months of good use... Read full review »

Good, but not supported

Pros clear screen, durable
Cons Internet not supported
Recommended it? No

The Palm VII is the palm product that was recently replaced by the palm i705 Handheld. The palm VII is a completely wireless palmtop that allows you access the latest news, sports scores, stocks, whatever, from almost anyware. Sounds great right? It did to me too, until I got the palm and realized... Read full review »

Palm VII is very useful when I'm mobile

bydgindles Oct 9, 2000
5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Built-in Internet/e-mail access is a major plus
Cons Needs more RAM, no carrying pouch
Recommended it? Yes

I had considered acquiring a PDA for some time, but found it difficult to justify the expenditure. However, when I tried the Palm VII the first time, with the built-in wireless web access, that was enough for me. I don't travel extensively, only about 10 trips a year, but using a laptop is a little... Read full review »

Palm VII isn't everything, but it's close.

Pros It's the web, wherever you are.
Cons Needs more memory, battery vampire
Recommended it? Yes

I'll admit it, I'm a gadget junkie, so when I got a new job, I asked for a Palm VII as part of my compensation package. I've been online for over 10 years, and I can still remember the frantic longing for my computer, the net and the virtual community I mentored in, when I had to leave them behind...

Great if your Company pays for it!

Pros Great Internet Access
Cons Size, Batteries
Recommended it? No

The Palm VII is a neat piece of technology, unfortunately, it's pretty expensive. I definitely would not own one if my company didn't pay for the Palm VII itself and the 45 bucks a month for web access.

Internet Access
I have never had a problem connecting to the palm.net. I have used... Read full review »

Palm VII - generally good...

bygarlicfry Feb 18, 2001
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Full Palm functionality + wireless connectivity. Lots of wireless applets.
Cons Eats batteries quickly; slow transfer speed. Pricey Palm.net access.
Recommended it? Yes

After a year of using this thing, I still have mixed feelings. But overall, I'd say they're positive.

GOOD things? As an already experienced Palm user, I was mainly interested in the wireless capabilities. And as the coverage maps show, my Palm works pretty much everywhere. Except in my... Read full review »

I Wouldn't Recommend It

bymikett15 Nov 2, 2000
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Wireless Internet Access
Cons Expensive, few features
Recommended it? No

First of all, the Palm VII is very expensive (compared to other handhelds) this Palm will cost you $499. At this type of price you should be able to buy a color handheld, but guess what, the Palm VII is only gray scale. It has 2mb of memory, which is 6mb less than other lower cost handhelds. This...

great gadget

4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 1 Comment
Pros user-friendly
Cons expense
Recommended it? Yes

I had heard mixed reviews about the palm VII, but I have had mine for a week now and I think it is great. It is incredibly simple to use. After taking it out of the box and allowing the triple-AAA batteries (included) to charge the modem, the palm VII takes you through a set up with several options... Read full review »

Pros reliable, liteweight, instant accsess to news sports restaurants stock quotes, etc.
Cons would like it in color.other than that not a damn thing wrong with it.
Recommended it? Yes

This is the greatest electronic equipment that i have ever owned barnone. I highly recommend any one that can afford to buy this instrument to do so. There are many uses I have found, like going to a Los Angeles Dodgers game and while im watching them, i just flip up my antenna on my palm, and... Read full review »

Palm vii in Chicago

4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Gets the job done
Cons Web access can be expensive
Recommended it? Yes

There's not much to say about the Palm vii that other reviewers have not written. As you know the Palm vii has a built in modem to access web-clippings from Palm's servers. Overall the coverage has been good, as I have used in Downtown Chicago without any problems. The other features are the same... Read full review »
