Back to Palm
by wakeupneo on Mon 9th May 2005 03:10 UTC

I picked up a Treo 600 pretty cheap from eBay and it's awesome....well, it became awesome only once I'd cracked it open and put a layer of aluminium foil over the battery wire to stop the really bad call interference - the things we do....hehe. I'm enjoying being back in the world of Palm. WM2003 can be very flaky whereas Palm is rock solid.

Previously..

XDA II: Woeful. Reset on me all the time. P.O.S.
XDA I: Great device and surprisingly can take quite a beating ;)
Sony Clie NR70V: Cool...but chunky. My last non-phone PDA.
Compaq iPaq 3135: Mono only but otherwise good...but chunky, especially with the SilverSlider CF jacket
Palm IIIe LE: My first intro to Palm. Not bad. Awesome battery life from a couple of AAA's
HP 100LX: Solid DOS machine. A few people have even got these things to run Win 3.11!

I've played with a friends' Symbian phone. I found it to be pretty underwhelming considering the hype I'd been hearing about it. I'll stick with Palm for a while I think...
