Review: Much easier to stay organized with this than with anything else. The battery's also a lot better. Review: First of all, I had been, as of late, only sporadically using a Zaurus ZR-5000, itself, a neat piece of useful and easy to use electonics. With a huge, b/w screen you can write on, it had amazing capability for its time, including wi-fi capable -- and this was for an item from the early '90s! However, with its built-in mini-keyboard and large LCD screen, it is relatively large and cumbersome. I used it primarily for contacts and sometimes for tasks and appointments, but it was really too large and heavy for me to carry around all the time (I don't carry a briefcase and rarely use a shoulder bag.). Using it for appointments just really didn't make sense if I wasn't going to carry it around. It had synching capabilities with a desktop, but it was slow and the built-in software was only marginally compatible with Microsoft's products. My wife has a Psion and, while more up-to-date than the Zaurus, was still in that league. I had been eyeing Microsoft CE products and Palms, but I thought they were expensive for what they did, and I wasn't too thrilled with the Graffiti writing. But finally seeing how streamlined, fast and capable the new ones are, I wanted to investigate. There are the Microsoft versions such as those put out by HP and Dell, but those are still pretty expensive. Then there were the Palms that were either high-priced as well, or the less expensive ones which were pretty much good for appointments and contacts. Not bad, and the new Z22 is a great value for something like that, but the Palm TX seemed, from other online reviews, seemed to be more reliable in terms of build quality than some in the recent past. Moreover, I have read that the Microsoft-based products tended to crash alot (the computer software has an internal conflict and inadvertently shuts down.). I saw this unit on desertcart for $270 with a short-term offer of a free Palm wireless keyboard. That sold me, and I knew desertcart offered a 30-day trial anyway. Having used it for about 6 weeks, I can tell you that it's brilliant for the money. The built-in office programs seemlessly integrate with the real things (and I understand that the software used by Palm is better than Microsoft's own stripped down PDA versions.). The internet browsing software works very, very well. It's not as robust as the one on your computer, but you'll be surprised as to how good it is. Blazer, the browsing software, is selective as to the sophistication of content it will download. While it's as fast as broadband, for sure, it's faster than my dialup used to be. There is also an option for text only downloads which is extremely fast. The screen is extremely bright and resolution is quite good. I use a Sony CRT at home, so I'm used to great color and resolution, but this is quite good. In sunlight, it's not great. This is not a substitute for a laptop, but for checking email on the go, or doing a quick Google, it's pretty amazing. We were in a theater a few days ago, and we were trying to figure out the background of an actress. There happened to be a wireless connection in the house, so I was able to quickly get on the internet and Google the actress and got our answer. As for the memory and processor, it's plenty for most lay-users, unless you're going to download LOTS and LOTS of games. On the other hand, with the SD card slot, you could load LOTS and LOTS of games on a card or two or three. The processing speed? Palm has chosen well for this price range. The TX cannot multi-task. When you leave one thing, it will close down when you open up another. This means the processor does less work. Because of the uncanny methodology of the browser, the speed of going around the internet is usually good, and has been tested to be faster than the basic Dell model which has a faster processor. The reason why the Dell seems slower is because the Microsoft operating system is more cumbersome. It is capable of multi-tasking, but it's greater sophistication results in slower everyday tasks performed on the PDA. The top of the line Dell is supposed to be terrific and potentially worth it for someone who is doing a lot of sophisticated stuff on their PDA, but it's almost twice the cost of the TX. For those who must have an even faster processer, the Palm Mobile Manager, retailing for $100 more than the TX, has a 33% faster processor and 4gigs of built-in memory (as opposed to the 128megs built-into the TX). For me, the TX is extremely impressive and I don't need the Mobile and I didn't want to spend more money. Considering the deal I got (w/free keyboard), it was a no-brainer. I have also bought two games for it, Village Sim and Bejeweled 2, and the bright, rich screen is just the ticket for them. And by the way, the Palm wireless keyboard works flawlessly. ## Features - Sleek, stylish handheld with 128 MB of flash memory and big 320x480 screen - Built-in wireless connectivity via Wi-Fi (802.11b) and Bluetooth - Easily manage email on the road or access files on your office desktop PC - Expansion slot that supports MMC, SD, and SDIO memory cards - Palm Desktop Software for Windows and Mac ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000BI7NHY | | Item model number | 1047NA | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | PalmOne | | Product Dimensions | 12.09 x 7.82 x 1.55 cm; 148.83 g | ## Images ![Palm TX Handheld - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71q4m0g1DQL.jpg) ![Palm TX Handheld - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81GxeMuDbwL.jpg) ![Palm TX Handheld - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71aC-jyziBL.jpg) ![Palm TX Handheld - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71E84olmC9L.jpg) ![Palm TX Handheld - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81JT4eMzd-L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: is there an infrared port** A: Yes. You can IR to another Palm easily. **Q: Is the softwsre, dock and all cables included?** A: This is very old so be aware I haven't been able to sync to my phone. All cables are included. Don'0t remember a docking station but it00'0s been so long. I just use it for storage of addresses and online acts and passwords. **Q: does it sync with Vista 32?** A: I am not sure. I used Windows XP and then 7, both 32 bit and 64 bit. All worked well. But you do have to find the right drivers. There are some sites out there that sell driver updates. They will work for you. I like my Palm so much that I have bought two new ones as back-ups since they aren't made anymore. Enjoy! **Q: Does this have a camera** A: Palm TX does not have a camera ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by P***R on 7 March 2020* Much easier to stay organized with this than with anything else.
