Criteria Comments Rating
  • Features Only notable feature as a Palm PDA is Bluetooth and a 320x480 screen. so-so
  • Display 320x480 resistive touchscreen. Nothing amazing, but it works. Worth noting the display works in direct sunlight, but is a bit dark. good
  • Battery life While powering a larger screen and faster processor, it still lasted several days when new. good
  • Ease of use Palm OS is easy to use, Graffiti has minor learning curve. good
  • Storage capacity 64 MB is enough for lots of Palm OS apps, but (UNMODIFIED), supports only 1 GB SD cards. With a third-party patch, 2 GB cards are enabled, but no SDHC. so-so
  • Design and form factor It slides to reveal more screen space, made of metal. Pretty good design. good
  • Portability (size / weight) Slider makes the device a bit more compact. No problems here. good
  • Durability It took a lot in it's lifetime, still going strong nearly 9 years, two owners later. good
Detailed review
One of the top-of-the-line devices, for 2003. This will not compare to any of today's devices.

This was the last to use the Universal Connector and the first Palm to wield a 320x480 stretch display.

No Wi-Fi, a bit small battery.

Will update eventually.
