Carry your life in the Palm of your hand, with the m505
The m505 is one of the latest in Palm's long line of hand-held devices. While in most obvious ways it seems a far cry from, say, my Palm III, it retains a familiar design and feel -- partly due to its continued use of Palm OS (Version 4.0 to be specific). Users new to the Palm family of products... Read full review »
Fading But Not Yet Gone
One of the biggest problems with the Palm IIIc and the Handspring Prism is screen pixelation, otherwise known as the black grid.

Faded color against competition (updated... final consumer unit, memory expansion details, and screen hack)
Only recently I put up a review on the Palm m500. I found out just a few days ago that a friend was going to have a m505 to review for a few days. I now had the chance to look at the m505 before I received the one I preordered at Amazon.com for $350 (after coupons, rebates, and gift certificates of... Read full review »
The Palm m505: Thin and in Color!
Since Palm's last evolutionary offering in the world of PDAs, the Palm VII, people have been left wondering where the company would go next. With increasing competition from Handspring and Sony, Palm has finally answered back with their m500 PDAs. And to satisfy the masses who want color, they gave... Read full review »
Palm M505--Color My World, This Thing is Great
My days using a Handspring Visor Deluxe are coming to an end, thanks to my testing of this precious PDA.
I've got to say up front that this PDA is about as good as it gets in the Palm OS flavors. And although I do have some minor concerns and issues with this product, the Pros outweight...
