Summary: Good Basic PDA
Review: I resisted a Palm Pilot for a long time, because I always had bad luck with paper organizers. They were too big to carry with me, I was forever running out of refills, I never had a pen when I needed one, etc. However, the m100 has been great for me and the price was right. I have my important numbers, love the task list, and have been able to plan work meetings through 2002 (which I never did with a regular planner). If you don't want or need all the bells and whistles of the higher-end Palms, I really recommend this as a starting point.

Summary: great intro to PDA
Review: First of all... I started out with pocket pc... and now also have a palm. I first recieved a HP Jornada 548 with a keyboard for graduation and loved it... then i ordered a computer from dell and got the m100 free. Although it doesnt have color(which is kindof overrated) and no headphone jack, and no mp3 player... my only complaint is that it only has 2 MB ram...! The truth about palm os is that it is "elegantly simple". The main difference between a Pocket PC and Palm OS is that Pocket PC is like carrying around a little computer...(and the burdens that are associated with computers...ie crashing, sometimes overwhelming when you just want to do simple tasks) with low battery life and much weight... however palm os is like just what you NEED to play mind occupying games, calendar, alarms notes and all the necessary stuff in a smaller package, lighter weight... easy to read in all light screen and it is very productive because it doesnt have too much computer b.s. just a piece of electronic equippment that that helps keep you organized, and occupied when necessary. ULTIMATELY: I recommend that everyone in this world own both a pocket pc(for portable computer<i have a laptop too>), and a palm os device with 8MB RAM not 2(for ultimate portability and productivity for normal tasks.) PS this would have had 5 stars if it had 8MB of ram.... <Hello handspring visor delux)

Summary: Palm m100
Review: Great item. Keeps you organized. If you're like me with a hundred little pieces of paper with addresses and numbers sitting around in your drawers and bags, this will help you clear the clutter without a lot of bells and whistles. It enables me to keep notes and a calculator when shopping without having to fish around for pen and paper and a separate calculator.

Summary: The Screen IS too Small
Review: I had read the reviews which said that the screen was too small, and I thought, "What a bunch of whiney little babies." After a few weeks of owning this Palm top, I have to agree. I think that I still would have bought it, but the smallness of the screen is an important issue. I do not think that the 2 MB non-upgradeable limit will be, however. It works well as a calender and an address book. I have written a 1000 word short story on the memo-pad program using the keypad instead of the graffiti which I am getting better at, but have not yet mastered (punctuation still escapes my grasp). This is a nice starter model. I believe that if I can get my daughters to like it, then I can upgrade myself.....

Summary: Excellent model for the price
Review: the palm m100 is an excellent palm for it's price range. It is limited on the memory, but i would not suggest buying a 105. I have read reviews of people saying to buy the m105, but you might as well buy a handspring visor deluxe for the few extra bucks. The visor deluxe has a larger screen (barley), 8mb's of memory and an expansion slot. My only gripe about the palm m100 is it's inability for you to upgrade the OS. Other than that i have had this device for almost a year and am i GREATLY pleased with it.

Summary: Handy Device
Review: I had never seen the need for such a device until I was given one. Now, I can't get along without it. I love my m100. It synchs with my Outlook software so I can carry about my contacts as well as my To Do notes and much more. It has games to keep me occupied on the bus and trains and planes. It has the ability to beam cards, notes, and even applications between units. Amazing little helper! I definitely recommend it...

Summary: This is more practical than an iPAQ
Review: I have been around Palm for a long time. I started out with a Palm Personal (97ish), then I upgraded that to a Palm Professional, then I got a Palm III, then I won a Palm VII, but sold it brand new for a Visor Handspring Prism (Color), but then sold that for a Compaq iPAQ, and then sold that after about 3 months and bought a simple old Palm m100. I guess I thought having the latest and greatest is better but soon realized that having a $550 Pocket Toy wasn't that necessary. After having the iPAQ for about 3 months I used it less and less. It was cool playing full color games and stuff but it just wasn't worth the money. So the moral of this review is make sure that if you spend a lot of money on a Palm that you're going to use it. The Palm m100 suits my needs very well. Has my schedule, contacts, and memos which is all I really need outside of the home or office.
