This is a good palm [Posted on 2007-12-30]
I have had the palm tungsten E for a couple of years and it is a good model. The screen if vivid, the battery life is adequate, and the preinstalled applications are useful. When you compare the screen to
less expensive models such as the Palm Zire, the difference in crispness
is completely noticeable.
The missing star comes from the downside of the product where the power button will eventually break but you can still open the palm with the quick launch buttons.
Good for Education [Posted on 2008-03-26]
Palm E is not match for Palm T5, nor Palm TX. It lack of Wifi, and it's older version Palm OS System,comparingly. But, it's features with mp3 player, high resolution of picture, and plenty of educational programs that can be installed in, makes it favourable to eductation, especially for kids.
My 5 years and 9 years siblings are using it and enjoying listening to music and viewing pictures on it,also, with some games.
Power Switch Fragile, Can't do Word Search [Posted on 2008-05-08]
The top power switch on these units is very fragile. It will break with normal everyday use. Suggest setting the unit up so that you never have to use this switch to turn the unit on.
Also this unit encounters a software failure when trying to do a word search. However, I decided it wasn't worth the time and effort to return it for this one glitch.
As I already have a substantial data base from a prior unit I had which failed due to the power switch, it would be too much trouble to switch product to a pocket PC. However, if I were starting from scratch I'd definitely get an HP unit.
What I don't understand is if cell phones can be built to be near indestructable, why can't Palm design a unit which is more robust!!!!
Palm One Tungsten E Handheld [Posted on 2008-05-12]
I use this daily for many purposes. I do not use the Bluetooth function, but it is included. not enough memory even with an extra card. Easy to use, and to teach yourself how to use it.
Was reliable, but now I've lost some faith in it [Posted on 2008-05-13]
I bought my Palm Tungsten E (used but in excellent shape) over a year ago. It has been working well, although I still have problems getting it to Hot Sync with my Office 2003 applications.
About 6 weeks ago, it froze, then crashed. Once it was working again (after I reloaded all my information--calendar and contacts), I saw that I lost some of the programs. There is no longer a calculator function.
I pressed the reset button, and lost more applications. I am tempted to go back to a Franklin Planner...good old paper and ink!
