Verified purchase: Yes Condition: Pre-owned. The Palm M came out 10 years ago and is now discontinued, but when the touch screen finally died on my original unit, I liked it so much that I searched for a replacement on Ebay. The two main selling points for me are: 1. User replaceable batteries. While it may seem wasteful to keep buying AAA cells, they last about 3 months and you just keep changing them out.
Later PDA models with rechargeable batteries are fine for 3 or 4 years, but when the batteries will no longer hold a charge you have to pitch the whole unit unless you are really skilled working with small things and can figure out what to replace the internal batteries with.
It takes a bit of getting used to, but once you learn it, it's like writing with pen and paper, no sore fingers and aggravat ion trying to touch type on a tiny keyboard.
The PDA comes already loaded with an address book, memo pad, date book, and clock calendar. The great thing is you can set an alarm for appointments. Apps I bought and use daily are a trip log to keep my business and personal mileage recorded for tax purposes and a time billing app for keeping track of time I spend on client jobs that are billed by the hour. The main downside to this PDA is that all your data is stored on volatile memory. If you drop the unit and the AAA cells fall out, you have 30 seconds to get them back in or your data is history.
This is why it's important to back up the unit every day to your desktop computer. Read full review. I actually bought 3 of these units. The big problems with the m is the age of the OS, the tendency to loose the screen alignment and the fact that if you have to swap out batteries it could loose all the memory. Why did I buy 3? To take them apart and create a low power, low cost word processor for on the go.
I have a keyboard that I will hard wire to the hot sync along with the USB connection. So, far I haven't had the time to do that but I have been using it as a word processor. As a side note, due to the age of the OS there is a lot of Open Source and freeware software out there.
I'm also loving playing iLarn and IRogue I'm not in the market for anymore m I'm looking for something with some mp3 playback or even wireless access.
If all goes well with the hardwiring, I will go back to the bidding. VLC Media Player. MacX YouTube Downloader. Microsoft Office YTD Video Downloader. Adobe Photoshop CC. VirtualDJ Avast Free Security. WhatsApp Messenger. Talking Tom Cat. Clash of Clans. Subway Surfers. TubeMate 3. Google Play.
