Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - review
i had a palm zire but it is to slow and frustrating. so i decided to get the m500 instead of the m505 which was a lot better choice because if you read the reviews for the m505 it has a lot more bad comments. Plus do you really need a color screen when you can just use a backlight.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Would you trust your most important data to this?
I owned a terrific Palm V which I dropped and destroyed by accident. Then I bought an m500. What a mistake. It has been nothing but problems.

I had the same problems as everybody else with the USB cradle not Hotsynching. I tried resetting the handheld several times and eventually it came back on. But what a royal pain. Also, the battery has been a problem too. For two weeks I couldn't get a charge to hold. Again, hard resetting it over an over helped.

This device cost far too much to behave this way. Tech support was limited and not helpful. I won't buy another Palm device.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Horrible hot sync; dead battery in 1 year.
I think most of those who have given this palm a one star or who wish to give it a negative star have summed it up correctly. The palm does not consistently sync. After 1 year of use, mine was dead as a doornail unless it was attached to the charger. Hence, I've not used it in a while.

Does that mean it's time to spend $40 on a battery? Is it really worth it? Not! Mine's in mint condition, and I'll take what I can get for it on Ebay. Time for a reliable PDA.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - A total disappointment - I threw it away
This product never worked properly, had limited functionality, and isn't even worth the discount price it's now available at.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Mixed bag; one bad one and one good one
My wife has a palm m500 that she likes, I have a palm m500 that works so inconsistently I am looking for something else. My wife's will not sync with the computer, so I had the computer looked at and tuned up by the computer doctor. That did not help. We received a court document saying we could change out the sync modules, but we had to have the receipt proving we bought the palm. OF course, they had our warranty certification and address, but that was not good enough. Overall, My wife is decently happy with hers, but with all the problems we have had, I would never buy another Palm. Oh, the 90 day warranty is not too great either. I assume that the the Palm people have little trust in their product or they would offer a year warranty. I'm sure the 25 dollars they charge for service after the 90 day warranty is a major profit center for them. After thinking about this some more, I not only won't buy from them, I hope they go out of business.

Amazon.com is offering a so-called Black Friday special on Eye-Fi Share:
The 2 GB Wi-Fi-enabled Secure Digital card normally runs $90; it's $65 while the sale lasts.

Given that Eye-Fi introduced a limited-time-only 4 GB "Anniversary" model that replaced the 2 GB Share version in its current line-up, and that the Anniversary model was $130 list but $100 for Costco members, it's pretty clear that the 2 GB won't re-appear, the 4 GB model will drop in price, and Amazon's acting as a clearance center.

The Eye-Fi Share lets you upload pictures over a local network to a designated computer, or upload via a Wi-Fi network for which the Eye-Fi is configured to connect over the Internet to Eye-Fi's servers, and from there to a specified photo-sharing, social-network, or photo-printing service.

I'm a fan of the Eye-Fi, although I favor the currently $130 Explore model (see my review), which comes with geotagging (via Skyhook Wireless) and adds a year of included uploading via Wayport locations (now part of AT&T).


Microsoft and Yahoo have dismissed a report that they're in discussions to sell Yahoo's online search business for $20 billion.
