Pros: Real Time Internet Info, Palm OS Cons: Price, Not Practical For Large Page Downloads, Lacks Rechargeable Batteries
The Palm VII is essentially the same as the Palm IIIe with one very important and expensive exception - the ability to view wireless web pages. I'll focus primarily on this wireless web feature as this is the main selling point of this unit.
Pros: The world at your fingertips...REALLY! Cons: Batteries do not last forever...
I hope you've all seen the new Palm Pilot VII Wireless commercial by now: a lady and a gent on passing trains exchange information with the the most recent definition of Point & Click technology...and it's wireless! Just think...
Pros: Large variety of web clipping apps Cons: Compared to the Palm V, bulky and way too expensive!
Several of my Web-crazed friends tried using an evaluation unit of the Palm VII, and they all concluded that, although it was a nice “toy,” they would wait until a more robust version was developed. I decided to check it out for myself.
Pros: wireless connectivity, send and receive Email, additional peripherals such as a full size keyboard and graffiti Cons: screen is not backlit and it is monochrome
I have been looking at personal organizers for quite a while now and so when my company said we are giving you a Palm VII so that you can do your work better I was intrigued. I have now had it for a while and I have to say I do not know how I ever...
The palm VII is finally here! Some people might be saying "oh its just a palm computer" what they don't know is the palm VII is different than any other pda out there. That may sound like an over statement but let me explain why it is the new...
Pros: Wireless, synch feature, ease of use, tons of software and web clippings. Cons: Looks, batteries not rechargeable.
I've always contemplated about just how useful these Palm Pilots are. Well, now that I have one, it's too good to be true. I use to think that scribbling on such a small device must be cumbersome and tough to learn. Why would anyone carry that thing...
Pros: Very easy to use Cons: Expensive, slow, limited usefulness
In theory, it sounds great: Hook a wireless modem onto a Palm so you can get those sports scores and stock quotes anywhere, anytime. In practice, not so much: The device is a bit bulky, the service slow as molasses, and much of the content is still not...
Pros: Lightweight, powerful, batteries last long, easy to develop applications Cons: none
After browsing through a number of epinions about the Palm VII, I've found one similarity among the people who are downing it - they're comparing it to a regular computer.
Handheld computing as is a separate form of computing, with its own...
Pros: Built-in features like Calendar, TODO, expense and more Cons: Wireless "clipping" and sometimes signal strength
As the title implies, this is a great pocket. Just like the other PALM devices you'll have the latest technology right in the "palm" of your hands. Keep your calendar, to do list, expense report, memos all in one neat compact piece of...
Pros: Ease of use, constant connectivity, many valuable tools available Cons: Cost
I was stunned when Palm Computing chose me to be a beta tester for the yet-to-be released Palm VII back in February of 99...I had forgotten that, when I registered my original Palm Pilot a couple of years ago that I had okayed inclusion in the beta...
I used a Palm V for a few months last year before I lost the cradle somehow and stopped using it. The Palm V is great, but I found that storing my addresses etc. on the server (Yahoo!) is what makes much more sense to me than in a handheld tied to a...
Pros: Compact organizer with email and internet rolled into one Cons: Difficult keying, short battery life, price
The Palm VII is a great tool for quickly referencing appointments, telephone numbers and short to-do lists. Its built in wireless functionality make it wonderful for sending out a quick email, reading the latest news, locating a nearby restaurant, or...
Pros: It's a Palm Cons: Expensive, bulky, NO rechargeable battery
I wanted a Palm to organize my life so my husband decided to buy me this one for the "internet" antenna seemed to good to pass up. Oh how I wish he did.
My husband has a Palm V. It's slim and sleek looking. It has a rechargeable battery....
