PalmOne Zire 72 Special Edition Handheld (Silver)

Summary: great, but still has cosmetic issues
Review: I am in love with my new Zire 72 PDA... BUT... I bought the special edition because I read all the reviews about the paint rubbing off the regular, blue Zire 72. I have had my PDA for just over a week now, and already the painted lettering on the top ('palm one' and 'zire 72') has cracked and mostly rubbed off. It's not a big deal -- the unit is user friendly and works great, and it still looks nice, but I can't believe that this $300 item already looks worn when it is almost brand new and has been used carefully and moderately. Still a great choice, I think, but just a warning...

Summary: Best Palm Yet
Review: I really like my Zire 72 even though the blue paint started flaking off the first week. Buy the silver and you will have a 5 star Palm. The audio recorder produces excellent quality and the camera, while not so great, is nice to have on occasion. All and all, it is a great little Palm, and as for the blue paint--I sanded it off so I now have a silver Zire 72. Careful though, it is easy to go through the silver paint to the copper underneath.

Summary: Syncs great with PC
Review: My husband and I recently purchased two of the silver Zire 72. On the PC, the Zire is almost plug and play. Applications are very easy to install and most of all easy to sync between PC computers. However, my husband had trouble when trying to sync between the Zire 72 and the mac. He had none of the pop up menus I did, installation was not as smooth and trying to sync his Zire 72 with iCal and Outlook created a big mess. He needed to download the isync from Apple and use that in conjunction with Hotsync from Palm. In short, its great for PC users... but its definately not "plug and play" for mac users who need to sync their information with a PC.

Review: What can I say but awesome!! This is the PDA that everyone needs.

Great for all your personal notes and also doubles as a wonderful organizer. The calendar is sooo easy to use! It also came with super easy instructions, so anyone can figure it out. Color screen is beautiful and all of the functions work perfect! This PalmOne does everything that all other PDAs do, but better!!
Even the case it comes with is very nice! The camera works great as a digital and great for video!!

Perfect for the guy or gal at the office, the stay at home mom, or for fun!!

This is a five star product with out the 5 star price!!!
