Not Bad at all Ok with the purchase.Thought i would also get the accessories like the USB cable,but.....Still finding the product useful though.It arrived a bit later than i had expected.
I'd buy from this seller again... This seller was very easy to work with and I received everything I needed. I would definitely buy from him again.
Tungsten E2 A dependable PDA with the features (calendar, address book, expansion card slot) I need. No phone, no camera, no movies - which I don't want. On the down side, as a Palm owner for many years, I am annoyed at the need for not infrequent soft resets that seems to have accompanied their development of OS 5.
I've had two and both died within one year Both have crashed within one year. The onscreen keyboard won't activate making the unit worthless. If you buy one good luck.
Almost great, but dated and the quality is declining This was my fourth and fifth Palm. I started with the old Palm Pilot, upgraded to color with the M505, got a Tungsten E (eventually the speaker went), then two E2s. The first E2 the digitizer got off and could not be corrected. But I loved it so much that I got a new one. I loved the new one too until one night it would not turn on (and has not turned on since). It seems the reliability has gone down since they started making them in China.
Positives: 1) Open system (IR port, 3rd party software, memory cards etc.) 2) Audible sound at least as good as an IPOD (see my review of the Ipod Touch I replaced it with) 3) Real one player is more functional on the road than I-tunes 4) Personal productivity software (to do lists, note pads, spreadsheets, databases etc.) 5) Documents to Go syncing with Microsoft Office
Negatives 1) Availability (I did not get a third largely because no one stocked them locally and I was in a hurry) 2) Reliability 3) Dated hardware vs. the new touch screens; also some minor issues like only supports memory cards up to 1 Gigabyte. 4) No vibrating alarm (ahh for the M505 even with its dim screen) 5) Documents to Go screwed up my synchronization
It seems that Palm has given up on its PDAs (they may be on their way out). But even after having two of these die on me, I hope they come back and if they come out with an upgrade, I'll gladly buy it.
