Could really use your opinions.
I bought a Handspring Visor nearly
two years ago. It's the basic model, B&W display.
I don't use it anymore because ever since
I got WindowsXP, it refuses to sync with my
computer. I have the latest PALM software, but
alas, the synch just doesn't work.
Besides that, Handheld technology has vastly
improved over the past two years.
I have a STAPLES catalog in front of
me and I am looking at THREE different
Handheld organizers.
* Palm i705 Streamlined Handheld ($499)
* Compaq Ipaq 3765 ($499)
* HP Jornado 568 ($649)
I like the PALM OS only because I have lots
of software for it. However, if members here
feel the Microsoft PC OS is vastly better
than the PALM, I'd like to know why.
I'd think about using the handheld to access the
internet, pending on how well it browses. That may
reflect on my buying decision. If you guys could
give me some insight on how that works,
I would be appreciative.
I guess I am just in the thinking stages and
hoping that members here could talk me into a
new PALM device. I don't want something I'll
use for a little bit and then sit on a shelve.
I want something exciting that will truly interact
with my day.
Thanks in advance
