Amazon.com Product Description
Created for today's fast-paced mobile landscape, the sleekly lightweight Palm TX handheld keeps you connected to your most important data--from email to files stored on your office PC--while you're away from your desktop with built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth wireless connectivity. It also features a high-resolution 320 x 480-pixel screen (with portrait and landscape orientation modes), a fast Intel 312 MHz ARM-based processor, expansion slot for Secure Digital (SD), MultiMedia (MMC), and Secure Digital I/O (SDIO) cards. The 128 MB of non-volatile flash memory (of which approximately 100 MB is available for files and software) protects your documents and information, even if the device is not charged and the power runs down. And, of course, the Palm TX features Palm's suite of information management applications, the ability to edit Word- and Excel-compatible files, and synchronization with Microsoft Outlook (Windows only).

Built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Wireless Connectivity
Stay connected easily when you're on the go with the built-in Wi-Fi wireless connectivity (802.11b), which enables you to access email and browse the Web at hotspots such as at coffee shops and in airports, or in your office if you have a wireless LAN network. You can even retrieve documents from your main computer with the included WiFile LT software. The Palm TX also comes the following enhancements:

  • Added ability for the device to scan for available networks
  • Improved connection logic to automatically connect to available compatible networks
  • Three steps to easily set up a new network connection
  • A free 30-day subscription to all T-Mobile Wi-Fi hotspots
With built-in wireless Bluetooth connectivity (version 1.1), you can synchronize the Palm TX with a Bluetooth-enabled computer from across the room (within a range of 10 meters, or approximately 30 feet). But that's just the start. Using a compatible Bluetooth-enabled phone, you can send and receive e-mail and connect to the Web, send multimedia (MMS) or text (SMS) messages, and even automatically dial any number in your handheld's Contact's application. (You can also synchronize data the "old-fashioned" way via the USB connection at the base of the handheld.)

For mobile professionals, the Palm TX provides all the conveniences of managing email on the road. With Wi-Fi access or Bluetooth technology, you can check corporate or campus email as well as personal accounts; download, read and edit a Word or Excel report on the fly; synchronize Outlook contacts, calendar, tasks and memos; and work with Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync, using VersaMail software, to synchronize email and calendar

Expansion Capabilities
The expansion card slot for MMC, SD and SDIO formats lets you insert a memory card from a digital camera and view photos on the large, color display; you can even can add transitions between photos and present them as a slideshow. The Palm TX handheld's compatibility with SD Cards up to 2GB lets road warriors carry a few favorite home videos and be entertained on long trips.

Support for Word, Excel, PowerPoint and PDF files
With the included DataViz Documents To Go software, you rehearse your PowerPoint presentation discreetly in an airport, make last-minute changes to a Word document, and check the numbers in an Excel spreadsheet and update them on the spot. The Palm TX comes with support for native Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files. And with the included Adobe Reader for Palm OS, you can download and view converted Acrobat files.

Multimedia
The Palm TX comes bundled with Pocket Tunes MP3 player for playing music files or Podcasts, which allows you to create and edit play lists, shuffle songs and navigate by album, artist or genre. The Palm TX also includes built-in software for viewing digital photos and video clips. And with MobiTV software (sold separately), you can view a wide range of television programs, including news, sports and entertainment, directly on the Palm TX handheld.

Operating System and Software
Veteran Palm OS handheld users will immediately notice the new Favorites view, which provides easy access to applications, files, and folders. The installed Palm OS 5.4 also introduces the Files application, which enables easy navigation among folders and files. It uses the intuitive and easy-to-learn Graffiti 2 writing software to input data into the handheld (as well as an on-screen keyboard). Windows users can synchronize their calendar, contacts, tasks, and notes with Microsoft Outlook. The Palm OS features the following organizer applications:

  • Contacts: Lets you store several addresses for each contact, and with new fields for more phone numbers, multiple e-mail addresses, instant messenger IDs, and Web sites.
  • Calendar: Use the new Agenda view to see upcoming calendar events, tasks due, and important e-mail, and color-code your events to provide an easy way to reference your calendar in the Agenda, Day, Week, and Month views. Take more notes, or synchronize more details from your desktop, in the larger Memos and Notes fields.
  • Tasks: Use tasks with alarms and repeating tasks to set reminders for important commients.
Compatibility
The Palm TX is compatible with PCs running Windows Windows 2000 (SP4) and XP (Outlook synchronization requires MS Outlook 2000, 2002, or 2003; sold separately), and with Macs running Mac OS 10.2.8 to 10.4.

What's in the Box
Palm TX handheld, flip cover, USB sync cable, power adapter, 3-step setup poster, Graffiti 2 sticker, Software Install CD-ROM with Palm Desktop, Tutorial, Getting Started Guide, User Guide, and bonus software.

5 out of 5 stars Palm Tx   September 29, 2008
Benigno Tanon (Puerto Rico)
I recived the product by the date it shoud, in perfect conditions. I have a good experience in this purchase.


4 out of 5 stars PDA FOR NURSING   September 28, 2008
student nurse (houston,tx)
This is a great asset in nursing, you have needed information right at the bedside. Considering my patients I prefer to use this for work only instead of a blackberry phone. I have loaded my TX with Nursing software but for some reason my TX keeps shutting down especially when I click on Office documents. I had to restart it several times from the reset button. Other than that it's a great working tool for me and works great with my MAC.


5 out of 5 stars Palm TX   September 24, 2008
Eric S. Thomsen (Beatrice, NE USA)
I have been very happy with my purchase of the Palm TX. It is a replacement for a Palm LifeDrive. It much lighter and performs faster. I have no complaints.


3 out of 5 stars It's fine.   September 23, 2008
amber (MA)
I had the Tungsten E prior to this, which I loved, and I killed it too soon by trying to charge it overseas.

This TX cost over double what I paid for my previous Palm and I just didn't see much of a difference. It plays MP3s, that's why I chose it over the T2. And the playlists are nice and easy to set up. Unfortunately it seems static-y. I've seen other reviews with the same complaint. It's not the headphones since they work fine in my iRiver.

In addition, a number of my old programs either don't work at all on this device, or they don't look good because the screen has different dimensions. Oddly, they took out a workspace for writing in so as to make the screen bigger. But in one of the options, you can have that exact workspace back, only lit. So for someone like me who is used to using that workspace, all that results in is using up the battery faster!

Some reviews mentioned that the power button sticks. I have noticed this too, but so far, after a month, it hasn't been an actual problem. If it doesn't turn on the first time, press it again.

To be fair, I haven't tried the bluetooth or wi-fi. Maybe they make the price worth it, I don't know.

So overall, it's everything I liked about my old Palm, but not much else! If you're thinking of upgrading, I'd wait. I would have if I'd had the choice.



1 out of 5 stars Terminal HotSync problems!   September 21, 2008
Peter G. Cutter
I have had hotsync issues with this Palm device since day one. after wasting way too much time, I have never been able to fix these issues. And yes, as everyone reports, Palm customer service is essentially non-existent.
