Warning: Product will not work with Tungsten E as described [Posted on 2003-12-09]
Despite the box saying this card will work with the Tungsten E, there's a disclaimer inserted in the box saying there's a bug using this card with Tungsten E's running the Palm Photos application. The card manufacturer says they will offer a free downloadable patch to fix this problem, but until they do, you have to employ a klunky workaround to manually not back up the Photos application. I am very disappointed with this product and would advise Tungsten E owners to think twice before buying it.
Customer Support is non-existant [Posted on 2004-10-04]
When you buy this product you are buying a 64M card with a backup program on it. Very expensive and redundant. The card has a backup program similar to the one that comes with my Treo.
The documentation is very poor. It is most important to back up all the files on the card to your pc before doing anything. They are not protected. My files became corrupted. I have tried to contact the developers and company many times with no results. They do not list a phone number so you must search for and use email or online forms. None of my queries have received a single response.
So now I have a very expensive memory card with a pretty plastic box with a picture of a safe on it. Geat marketing. Lousy company/support. The backup program was no better than the ones supplied with the PDA.
I would suggest you save yourself the trouble and buy a large memory card and use the backup that comes with your PDA or Treo and put it on the card.
Excellent Backup Utility for Older Palm and Windows Units [Posted on 2006-08-15]
I've used this successfully in a Treo 600, a Treo 650, a Palm T/X, and an Ipaq rz1715 with no problems at all. I particularly like the ability to selectively back up or restore individual files.
This is an MMC card with a capacity of 61 mb. only, however, that may not offer enough memory to back up newer models.
This product does not work with Tungsten E2 [Posted on 2008-02-28]
Inside the box is a disclaimer that the product does not work with Tungsten E2 correctly. Going to the suggested developer web site and downloading the "update" resulted in an error message "back up failed". The developer did not respond to emails. The supplier did respond and is having their tech team see if they find a "patch". Until a patch is found I do not suggest this product be used with the Tungsten E2.
