Description:

For the technophile who refuses to see the world in black and white, Palm has created the Palm IIIc handheld--a color version of the company's immensely popular Palm III handheld. Measuring 5.06 by 3.17 by 0.67 inches and weighing less than 7 ounces, the Palm IIIc handheld is one of the smallest and lightest full-color handhelds available. Its active-matrix screen produces vivid, crisp colors and is viewable from many angles in both dim and bright light.

While the color screen may be enough to dazzle many prospective users, the Palm IIIc handheld still performs all the functions of earlier models of the Palm III. It offers date book, address book, mail, to-do list, memo pad, expense, calculator, and security applications. Its built-in 8 MB of memory is as high a storage capacity as is available in any Palm handheld. To quantify what 8 MB capacity means, the Palm IIIc handheld can hold 10,000 addresses, five years of appointments, 3,000 to-do items, 3,000 memos, and 400 e-mail messages. There is even leftover storage space for databases, books, image viewers, and games, making the Palm IIIc handheld an ally to any serious PDA user.

Equipped with a HotSync cradle and software, the Palm IIIc handheld is ready for local and remote synchronization out of the box. You can back up or transfer data to and from the handheld and your desktop PC or Macintosh (special connectors required) in minutes. It's also ready for a modem (available separately) and the Internet with its TCP/IP software. The Palm IIIc handheld includes an infrared port, allowing you to beam data and applications to any other infrared-enabled Palm OS handheld or to connect to other infrared-enabled devices such as cellular phones, pagers, and laptops.

The Palm IIIc handheld runs for about two weeks on a fully charged lithium battery, which is included. The box also includes a synchronizing HotSync cradle and battery charger, a metal stylus, organizer software, a handbook, Palm's Getting Started guide, and a DB-25 adapter.
