Well, my yuppinization has finally become complete, thanks to Aunt Lorna and Grandma. This year, on Cinco De Mayo, I graduated from law school and as a gift I received a Palm IIIxe from the aforementioned. I had never even given a thought to buying one of these for myself, because I always thought... Read full review »

A few years ago I had owned a Palm III. When I first bought it, I thought it was great. Here I had my Rolodex, and calendar at my fingertips where ever I went. That euphoria lasted all of two months as I smashed the glass display on two consecutive units. After that experience, I decided that the... Read full review »

Pros Clarity of the text, free wireless services by Sprint, PDF support, free book previews.
Cons Not all books have been digitized, no built in back light, folders to organize, cost.
Recommended it? Yes

I was not interested in an "ebook" reader when the first Kindle came to market but I've quickly realized how valuable the Kindle to be. I choose the Kindle DX for the larger screen but more importantly because of its native PDF support. I deal with a mountain of PDF documents at work and now I have... Read full review »

If you commute daily and read the paper this is ideal. Its less portable than the little one. But is much better for scanning news stories. Carried in a briefcase/purse negates this problem.
