Pros: Cost of memory, untold expandability
Cons: Bigger size, average looks, slow orders
While there are stylistic differences between the Palm Pilot and Handspring Visor products, I would have to say that the important difference is options. The Visor Deluxe gives you more options at a cheaper start-up cost than its swanky, older brother...

Pros: Inexpensive, storage capacity, SpringBoard expansion slot
Cons: OS not upgradable, serial cradle costs extra, may be compared to IMacs
It's easy to get caught up in all the Visor reviews comparing against the Palm Vx. It's an unfair comparison and may influence you to pass up this great innovation from Handspring.
We all have different needs from our handhelds. Some of us...

Pros: cheap, good quality
Cons: awkward cover, screen easily scratched
After spending months researching Palm Pilot type devices, I finally decided upon buying the Handspring Visor Deluxe. For years I'd swore I'd never get a PDA. I'd whip out my $3 Hallmark (tm) pocket organizer (paper, not electronic) at the request of a...

Pros: Tried and true Palm OS, lower price than Palm, expansion slot.
Cons: Lousy backlight.
After months of sneering at geeks and their PDAs, I've converted. The hassle of having bits of information stored on three separate computers and a blizzard of pieces of paper finally got to me.
I ended up with the Visor Deluxe for three main...

Pros: Date Book Plus, Easy to use, Versatile
Cons: Setup issues, quiet alarm, Hot-Sync Trouble, Bad tech support
As a stay-at-home mom I didn't think I would have much use for a PDA. I first became interested in getting one after I read an e-book on my husbands Palm III. I was attracted to the Handspring by it's five color choices (I have a green one) and the...

Pros: Price, looks, features
Cons: Bigger than a Palm Vx
I was just given a Handspring Visor Deluxe (orange) for my birthday. I've only had it for about 10 days, but I really like it.
First, I've seen other reviewers mention the quality of the unit, which many thought was cheap or flimsy. I don't...

Pros: Great for organizing life.
Cons: The HotSync cradle should come with 2 cords - one USB and one serial.
I recently purchased a Handspring Visor Delux and I am very happy with it. It is very easy to use and lives up to the billing "intuitive" navigation. I had mine set-up and ready to go in a few minutes of receiving it.
The unit...

Pros: Hopeful future modules, fun new design
Cons: Grafitti recognition not as smooth
Buying a Handspring Visor is really about buying promises to come. A Visor Deluxe user since Thanksgiving '99, the Visor is not a revolutionary departure from the original 3Com Palm series, but a step in evolution. A quick history of the Handspring...

Pros: Ease of Use, Springboard Expandable, durable
Cons: Bulky (especially with leather case), springboard modules expensive
*This opinion marks the beginning of a series of reviews that I'm basing on my extensive experience with products as a Salesman at a major office supply chain. I have a unique perspective on these products which I'll be able to bring to you, the...

Pros: Organizes everything, tons of free software available, easy to use, small, affordable, compatible with Macs
Cons: Stylus it came with was kind of cheap. Visor is not quite as sleek looking as the Palm or the newer, curvier PDAs
Why Buy a PDA?
I bought the Visor Deluxe in Mar 2000 from the Handspring Web site. I am a consultant and I work in my client's offices as well as my home office. I needed a solution that would allow me to have a precise calendar with me at...

Pros: Expansion slot, 8MB, $249
Cons: Needs a keyboard for faster entry
With 8MB, expansion slot, thousands of shareware or freeware applications, at $249, 'nuf said? I don't know why anyone's would still buy a 2MB PalmPilot III or V, or IBM ThinkPad (PalmPilot with an IBM logo). The PalmPilot Vx has 8MB, but costs much...

Pros: VERY useful, durable hardware, Thousands of Apps
Cons: No rechargeable battery, lack of disposable screen protectant
The reason I took the plunge on a PDA was because I had recently come to the conclusion that I had an address book in hotmail, one in Yahoo, an Outlook version at home, another at work, scraps of paper about, and a different set of numbers on my cell...

Pros: Holds a lot of data; helpful for various uses.
Cons: not so sleek; clunky to hold at times
This thing is sweet!!!!
That's what I keep telling all my friends. I've played with a number of Palm Pilot's before but this is the first one that is my own. It has a lot of functionalities to it.
GOOD FOR EVERYONE
I...

Pros: lots of memory, low price, bright, sharp screen
Cons: screen scratches easily, annoying cover
Intro
I bought a Handspring Visor Deluxe back in October of 1999 when they were still a new product. It took something like 6 weeks to get mine, and when I did I was excited. All of my friends had Palm III's and my Visor had more memory and...

by Girlina , Oct 27 '99
Pros: Lots of memory, good price, expandable slot very cool
Cons: What's going in that slot and when can you buy this?
I'm a longtime aficionado of the Palm platform and of Jeff Hawkins; I've done in-depth interviews with him and was very taken by his absolute dedication towards creating devices that everyone and anyone can enjoy using. I was absolutely thrilled to find...
