It does everything I need and so much more.

Date of Review:  Jan 14, 2005
The Bottom Line: If you're looking for a full-featured PDA with lots of neat gizmos built in, you will be hard pressed to find a better one.
Review: My wife was so excited before Christmas; she'd been researching handhelds for months, and had finally found the perfect one for me. A Sony Clie PEG-NX80V. Unfortunately, the company from which she ordered it waited until 2 days before Christmas to...

Do All Your Small Chores and Remember Everything

Date of Review:  Mar 2, 2006
The Bottom Line: Good purchase. Does a lot. Others have different needs, also look at other choices.

Great for the PDA first timer or the seasoned pro!

Date of Review:  May 5, 2005
The Bottom Line: I would highly recommend this one - the Zire 72 is the best of the Zire line and as much a workhorse as the much more expensive ones.
Review: This is the first review I have ever written for Epinions, but after seeing that the Zire 72 only had one review, I felt that this product deserves even more praise! I have had the Zire 72 Special Edition for a little more than a month, and so far...

Do not like it

Date of Review:  Apr 5, 2008
The Bottom Line: Lower price point, but poor design.
Review: I bought the Zire 72 in order to have a PDA to use mostly for contact lists and information, not for any computer power on its own, not even for email. So the basic function list and price point was what drew me to this model. And I had had a very...

Very good, for the price

Date of Review:  Apr 21, 2007
The Bottom Line: Has something for everyone from newbie to geek. Worth passing on to your kid when business needs require more, but that may be a while.
Review: I bought a second hand Zire 72 after giving up on HP honoring their product warranty. I'd had nothing but trouble with HP PDAs and the HP warranties aren't worth the paper they're printed on, so I figured I'd try out a Palm product.

Zire 72 passes for the price

Date of Review:  Feb 21, 2006
The Bottom Line: If you are willing to sacrifice space get this palm for its other features. Hit up online message boards for help configuring the Bluetooth.
Review: I got a good deal on the sire 72 but I didn't get everything I wanted. It doesnt have wi-fi capabilities unless you buy a $75 wi-fi SDIO card. If you do this it limits what you can save since it has 25mb of internal storage. I had no problems...

All that power in the palm of your hand!

Date of Review:  Jan 21, 2008
The Bottom Line: If youre going to buy one or upgrade... this is the one for you!
Review: When you think of next generation technology Palm is one of the first companies that spring to mind. Well, Palm is back with force as they try and set the benchmark with their Palm Zire 72 Special Edition. With heavy competition out there how does...

The Best Combination of Organization and Fun!

Date of Review:  Jun 29, 2005
The Bottom Line: This pda has so many features and capabilites, you'll be amazed by all the different things it can do.
Review: I recently purchased the Palm Zire 72 Special Edition and I love it. I spent about 6 months doing research on PDAs and after going through hundreds of website I finally got this one. It is great because it has so many features and abilities.

Zire 72s, A Handy Gadget to say the Least!

Date of Review:  Jul 9, 2006
The Bottom Line: This is an excellent tool for anyone who is on the go!
Review: I have to agree with makowals full review. I have some additional comments and points of agreement.

As in the fashion world, it pays to accessorize!

The unit alone, along with the integrated and optional software from the...

Palm Zire 72s: "Silver" Is Gold

Date of Review:  Nov 18, 2005
The Bottom Line: The Zire 72s is a stylish Palm that corrects many of Palm's earlier missteps. Its beautiful color LCD, SD card slot, and digital camera make this a must-have.
Review: Palm has now been in the PDA game for many years. The makers of the original Palm Pilot have been through many generations of the handheld electronic organizer, many of which I've owned. In the Zire 72s, a lot of the flaws in previous Palm units are...
