Rating: Summary: Palm M105 Review: Worked two days then died.
Rating: Summary: Pretty Good Review: My Palm is pretty nice, but it isn't as great as it could be. I wish I'd spent the extra $ to buy a newer model. All I use it for now is to play games. I think it would be great to give as a gift because it is so versatile, you can do pretty much anyting with it.
Rating: Summary: EXcellent Value for Entry Handheld Review: Excellent product, easy to use and very useful. Not just an electronic toy. Enjoy it. PLus the operating system is not Microsoft Pocket PC.
Rating: Summary: so far so bad Review: I was really excited about my palm, but when I opened it and tried to work with it a number of buttons on the tap screen did not work. Now I have to send it back and wait for another one. I'm hopeful that I'll have better luck with the next one but we'll see.
Rating: Summary: You get what you pay for Review: I'm about to return my second Palm 105 and will not choose this model again. Both lasted less than 2 weeks. Numerous attempts to soft and hard reset so that I could perform functions were fruitless. Even Palm support instructed me to return the first one. No third try for me!
Rating: Summary: Not everything as expected Review: I purchased this not only to maintain calendar and addresses, but because I am a huge list-maker. The standard software did not do the trick. However, I purchased additional software that does not work on your desktop.If you're contemplating purchasing this and plan on only using the handheld, it should be fine. However, if you are a power-user and/or rely heavily on using your desktop and syncing, I'd check out the competition. This was no better than a pocket calendar and address book. In addition, they offer no support for online purchases of software.
Rating: Summary: Don't Buy Review: I would not buy this item because it does not have as much memory as some do. Also if your going to buy one then you should buy one that is in color and just spend the extra bucks. it takes forever to download games
Rating: Summary: Good choice Review: I would definitely recommend. If you are looking for an organizer, this is the way to go. The software is easy to use, and if you dont want to learn the grafiti writing system... even though its easy to use, theres a digital keyboard. If all youre looking for is an organizer buy this, if you want something more complicated, buy a laptop or go for something like a palm i705. I think the only downside with this is that when the batteries run out, you have to resynchronize everything. so thats that. Have fun
Rating: Summary: Disappointed in PALM m105 and Palm Service Review: I purchased a Palm m105 on Dec 11, 2001 from Amazon.com. I was very excited when it arrived, and spent a lot of time learning the graffiti writing and putting in an extensive address list. After only two weeks of use, my Palm stopped recognizing the stylus and basically quit doing anything. I contacted the Palm Service Department immediately and after backing up my address list, the only thing they could suggest was to "hard boot" the PDA which basically restores it back to factory settings and loses everything entered to date. My Palm did not respond to the hard boot, so basically it is worthless! I have been in contact with Palm Service Department since December 31, 2001 on four different occasions and while they promised to send a new Palm to replace my defective one once I faxed them proof of purchase, nothing has been resolved. I could go on and on about the long wait times to get to a human being, sitting on hold while they try to find the documents I sent and then finally being told that the m105s are on back order and they cannot tell me when a new one will be sent.It has been over a month since I reported my problem to Palm, and I am ready to give up on this Palm model and request my money back. TERRIBLE SERVICE and TERRIBLE PRODUCT.I do not recommend this product, and I am very disappointed in Palm.
Rating: Summary: Beware of Memory Loss Review: I bought the product and loved it at first. I spent hours entering my life into this machine. Then, while in my bag, one of the batteries fell out after the battery cover came off. All of the data was lost. Be aware that the memory only works when the batteries are in it, and you only have one minute when you take out the batteries to not lose your data. So if a battery falls out, as mine did, you lose everything.
