Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Palm m500 Handheld
I wanted something to replace my Sharp YO-520 data organizer w/ 1 MB that was suffering from a screen going bad, without resorting to buying a smart phone and paying the $30/mo subscription fee. I have almost 2,000 names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, anniversaries, and passwords in my Sharp, so I pretty much can't live without this information. After three weeks of research, I decided on the nine-year-od technology of the Palm m500 to replace the Sharp. It avoids many of the problems ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - No support available
If you are running Windows 7, DO NOT PURCHASE this product. No support available as it is a product no longer supported by Palm. I have tried every resource I could find to resolve my Hot Sync issues with no luck. Really made a mistake by purchasing this item.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good Basic Tool
A friend and I needed a way to carry large amounts of simple data without carrying books. We checked for PDA's, but the new ones were quite expensive and did all kinds of things we didn't need or want to do. This level of technology is perfect for this specific use.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Does everything I need it to do
I bought this to help me do inventory at work, as well as to help keep track of my food orders from different providers, and so far I am very pleased with the machine. It does everything I need it to do and more. I was able to download a spreadsheet program that makes doing my inventory very easy.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - DISAPPOINTED
I BOUGHT THIS FOR MY 18 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER, SHE LOVED IT BUT HAD TO
SEND IT BACK BECAUSE IT WORKED TWO DAYS. I LIKE THE FEATURES BUT
NOT SURE HOW LONG THE REPLACEMENT WILL LAST. THE SCREEN STOPPED
WORKING WITH THE STYLUS. BOUGHT THUMBOARD, WORKED ONE DAY AND QUIT.
