A must have! [Posted on 2000-01-03] I recently purchased a Sharp Y-180 organizer for 39.99 to replace my old Sharp 32K thinking it would be great to have the ability to back-up my data to my PC. Only to find the software not only cumbersome to use, but unable to import information from any other program. I could upgrade the software and get a version that is able to import from Outlook, but at an additional cost of 69.99 plus shipping. Back to the store it went. Then I discovered the REX! Easy to install, import, synchronize and use. I had mine set-up and running in less an hour. For those of us that want our information readily available and don't want to spend a small fortune (Palm) to have it REX is the answer. If you are looking for a Palm type item, this is not the PDA for you. The only downside is not being able to add new info directly into it. But until I'm willing to spend 169+ for the next version, I'll just use my old Sharp as an electronic memo pad for my updates and as a calculator.
All my 3 needs in one device! [Posted on 2000-01-18] I was recently robbed. Lost my Organizer (180U$S), all data (7 years of information), and the criminals got all my info. So, I needed a cheap device, that force me to have a backup, and with some kind of password to access data. Then I found the 29.99U$S Rex 3, and my life changed. It comes with a usefull leather envelope that lets you store some cards where to write the information you get on the go. Write it down later on your PC and REX and forget about losing information. ADVICE: If you work with Outlook you must purchase also TrueSync Plus for Outlook. A must have 1 step synchronization application. The original soft you get with the Rex needs to be loaded with the Outlook information first, and then to the Rex. (two steps)
Exellent product [Posted on 2000-02-05] It is by far the best product I have pruchase the last two years. It works great with Outlook and I can track all my 1'000 Access-Business adresses all the time with me. For me I have purchase 2 extra sets just as reserve. For my business I need 20 - 50 more of these (I will give this to my best customers with all the product data-s in it) Does any body know where I could get more of Rex-3 with IS ? (In December I was desperately seeking the Rex-3 version in LA, nobody seems to sell this exellent tool any more.)
Very versitile [Posted on 2000-06-10] While small and light this organizer is Extremely useful. It has all the storage functions of a palm pilot (but a much smaller memory) and as low a price as a regular organizer. I believe that this is one of the most handy name, date, address, and phone number storage organizers around. Its only flaws are that it has very confusing directions and a small memory.
Okay but [Posted on 2002-09-04] This is a very handy organizer. However, an alternative should have been provided so that data can be entered directly to the REX without the need for a PC.
