Tungsten E2

Pros: Bright screen, weight, size

Cons: Hotsync, screen calibration

The Bottom Line: It could be better.

Review: In early September my 2 year old Palm Zire 71 fried itself. One day it was charging, got really hot, and simply stopped working. I knew it was coming. For a couple weeks the battery didn't hold a charge and always felt warm, so when the PDA finally...

Pros: Compact, great software, a huge help to organization!

Cons: Designed such that you must buy accessories to get full functionality, and other things

The Bottom Line: Get his PDA to get organized and enjoy a few added extras, but read my review and be aware of the limitations.

Review: I purchased a Tungsten E2 because I just started back to grad school and I suddenly need somewhere to put a dozen manuals, and get a whole lot more organized. While I would say I was satisfied with the Tungsten, there are some niggles about the...

Pros: Color display, good use of memory, compact

Cons: Easy to lose, needs GSM phone for Bluetooth wireless

The Bottom Line: still uses a note pad and pencil.

Review: During the big Flood of 2005 which struck the isolated area of Central Virginia also know as My Basement , my wife lost a PDA (more specifically a Sony Clie (epinons keeps displaying the wrong charatcer for the accent mark) to the flood water. It...

Pros: Nice color screen, low cost, Documents to Go included

Cons: Poor cradle design, Graffiti 2

The Bottom Line: Great for contacts, tasks, appointments, photos and portability of some MS Office documents.

Review: OVERVIEW

For some reason Palm decided to name this little PDA "Tungsten" - but their isn't an ounce of Tungsten in it. Well, its an OK name, but I didn't buy it for the name, I bought it due to an unfortunate accident.

...

Pros: Organizing has never been funner; Small, Basic and Minimalistic; Good Software; Wi-Fi/Blue tooth Ability

Cons: Occasional Freezing; Small Memory space for Songs/Videos; One game included; Protection of screen costly

The Bottom Line: Excellent for beginning PDA users and features the all the programs needed to be organized. Simple and Minimalistic sums up the overall impression of the Tungsten E2

Review: I have always been amazed by PDAs and numerous usages of them. I watched in awe as a friend whipped out his PDA and entered in schedules for important exam dates and other notes to remind him later on, while I was scribbling down illegible scratch...

Pros: Easy to use, affordable, expandable, versatile

Cons: uses unique connector (not compatible with universal chargers), no cradle

The Bottom Line: I would highly recommend this as it's an outstanding handheld for the money and can be used almost anyone with ease.

Review: The Tungsten E2 is worth more than it's price when you consider the functionality of what this handheld can do for you.

I've owned many Palms in the past (Palm III, VII, Vx, Palm m100, m130, M515, T2, and the E2. Each Palm served its...

Pros: Screen is brighter

Cons: 7 hours trying to get it to sync, the WiFi card,fooling with the Bluetooth.

The Bottom Line: Dont buy it, too fiddly

Review: Palm is no longer the leader in easy to use PDAs.

I love my Tungsten E. Its simple. It does what I want it to do - keep me organized. I bought it after I returned the "paper weight" called the T5

So I bought the E2 thinking it...

Pros: Great included software, excellent battery life, good starter PDA

Cons: No replaceable battery, poor choice of included cover

The Bottom Line: Highly recommended as a first PDA or a replacement for an older/outdated unit. Priceless convenience and usability.

Review: I've never owned a PDA before, but wanted one for a long time. It seems the older I get the more I'm expected to remember and keep track of, yet the shorter my memory gets. Ugh. What is one to do? Why talk the hubby into buying a PDA, of course...

Pros: great color screen, smart look, very versatile

Cons: Reported short battery life expectancy but .. so far so good

The Bottom Line: so far so good, if the battery dies again, I'm not going to be happy!

Review: I am no computer wiz, nor am I some business mogul that needs to be in ten places at one time. So PDA was not a necessity in my life, although I have found over the last few years that it does come in handy and has lots of bonuses. My first PDA was...

Pros: Nice looking, beautiful bright screen

Cons: Software not as intuitive as Windows on PC. Calibration issue (don't buy it used!)

The Bottom Line: Because of the calibration issue, I can not recommend this item unless new ones had it fixed (did Palm work on it ?)

Review: This review is mainly intended to discuss about the recalibration issue with the Tungsten E2. The screen went off calibration and impossible to recalibrate with the pen, there fore it was impossible to use the screen in any way. If you are not a...
