Rating: Summary: Difficult to sync Review: This organizer works great with Outlook! You can store all of your contacts in the organizer and take them wherever you go.***BUT*** Using the Pocket Sheet Sync to send and receive Excel files is like pulling teeth. I have tried changing every setting on my computer and in the software, but this will NOT work at all for me. I am using Microsoft Excel 2000 on a Windows ME system. I can send the files from the organizer to my computer, but not the other way around. The error tells me that I need to contact technical support, but they aren't helpful with this issue at all. The only thing that they could advise was that I change the batteries. I tried that to no avail. They had no other suggestions. HORRIBLE LITTLE PRODUCT--WASTE OF MONEY AND TIME
Rating: Summary: Awesome Review: This piece of equipment is great for the price. I would like to find a keyboard for it, if one exists:).
Rating: Summary: Gets the Job Done Review: This will take care of all the basics for your personal organizational needs- scheduler, To-Do lists, contact info lists, MS Excel Spreadsheet program, basic calculator, free writing memo option, as well as some additional games. It doesn't have all of the exciting extras that some of the other programs have (i.e. email, color, etc) but it's one of the few high quality PDA's at a good price.
Rating: Summary: take your desktop with you Review: Three months ago, I went out and bought an expensive PDA. I returned it after one week because I did not find it to be a very good value. I found the PV-S400Plus on sale for peanuts just recently. It is a VERY good value and I have only had it for less than 48 hours. I'm considering getting a few more as a gift for my family. Here is what I like about it: 1)Syncs very well with Outlook (contacts, calendar, to-do) 2)Nice text sync program 3)The finance program looks simple and efficient (although I don't use it) 4)Pocket sheet is supposed to sync with excel although I still have not gotten that to work. 5)Cool Chess program and other games! For what you are paying, and the value this delivers, you should have no complaints. You could pay 20 times more for something with better connectivity, storage capacity, and features, but that's what desktops are for. This device is small and synchronizes well with Outlook and Act! Buy one of these and take your desktop with you.
