Product Details of Palm Tungsten T5 PDA

Description

With 256MB of storage, the Tungsten T5 handheld from palmOne lets you carry more and do more. Word documents. Spreadsheets. PowerPoint presentations. Photos. MP3s. The works. And because it s flash memory, all that information is saved even if the power runs down when you re on the go and you don t have time to recharge or synchronize. Better yet, the stunning 320 x 480 color screen lets you see more in both landscape and portrait modes. The real beauty of the Tungsten T5 is you can transfer files and even whole folders from your desktop to your handheld, so you have what you need on the road, in a meeting, or when working from home. Even use it like a USB removable drive to work on those files on another computer. Just when you're thinking there couldn't be room for anything more, with built-in Bluetooth wireless technology you can check email and connect to the Internet on the go. All this and the Tungsten T5 still fit right in your pocket.

Palm Tungsten T5 PDA

Strengths: Beautiful screen. Plenty of memory. Great sound. Love that it is a full screen.

Weakness: Difficult to restore palm programs from previous pda. Unstable OS. No instructions or manual on how to use the new drive mode or file transfer system. Speaker on the back of the pda. No cradle.

I upgraded from a T3 to the T5. I had a nightmare of a time restoring my info from the T3. The problem was that some of my programs were too big. I use alot of medical programs that take up alot of space. I wound up installing everything from scratch instead of restoring info by hotsyncing. I finally figured out how to use the new file transfer system which made everything so much more simple. If...

Palm Tungsten T5 PDA

Strengths: Stylish & lightweight. Can be used as a USB drive (very cool!) and mp3 player. Internal memory, as well as card memory available. Great color and long-lasting battery.

Weakness: The T5 does not work with your accessories/adapters from the T3 or other Palms. That means having to buy all new accessories! No built-in wi-fi access.

This is a great PDA--it's the third PDA I've had in the last three years (I'm a gadget person and love the latest-greatest) and definitely the best one yet. I was a little frustrated that most of the software and peripherals that I had been using with my T3 were not compatible, but that's getting better as more software vendors port their software over to the T5 capabilities. The display looks...

Palm Tungsten T5 PDA

Strengths: This is my first PDA. Its worth a deal.Very good battery life. Jump drive feature gr8. Word & excel docs dont require any conversion s/w. Hot sync very good. Hand writing tool very good. Great looks

Weakness: In particular no weakness. I did not consider Wifi as my criteria so no probs for me. But then this PDA has lot of flexibility. I dont think it has any weakness.

Great deal for the price. this PDA is very versatile to use. The processing speed is very good. It has very good file transfer feature. Easy to use. It can be used as a jump drive. The best part is that the hot sync feature exchanges info between your PC and PDA so both devices are in sync with each other. The PDA has good resolution. Sound quality is good for the speaker of the size of PDA. It...

Palm T5

Strengths: Fits in shirt pocket, larger screen which is nice for things like spread sheets

Weakness: Does not alway work, software hangs up, connector is weak.

I had a Palm M500 for about 4 years and decided to upgrade only for the color. I had discovered that the engineers that I work with did not use their PDAs when because their’s did not fit into their pocket. I was always the one to have my PDA handy in meetings and available for retrieving phone numbers and data. I use it for scheduling by syncing with MS Outlook. This is the best thing ever. I...

Palm Tungsten T5 PDA

Strengths: Slick design. Excellent screen. Easy navigation. Fast.

Weakness: Expensive

Very nice product. The processor is fast, good for games as well as word processing and spread sheets. Nice graphics with a high resolution. Excellent sound quality. Although capable, not practical to be used as MP3 player since it drains the battery. Good memory available to store files and pictures. The MMC/SD card slot is very hany and practical to transfer files, but even better, it can be...

Palm Tungsten T5 PDA

Strengths: nice form factor, comes with bluetooth, memory can not be lost due to low battery. full size screen

Weakness: the digitizer is inaccurate, making data entry very inefficient

this was supposed to be the model that everyone was waiting for. a full size screen pda with virtual graffiti, and still in the classic palm v/palm m505/tungsten e form factor. the new type of memory in the pda is great. Normally, if you let the battery drain, you lose all the data in the pda and you have to rely on the backup that the palm software automatically makes whenever you last synced....

Palm Tungsten T5 PDA

Strengths: Has a good battery life, doesn't need to be charged all the time. Has a lot of memory, you really don't need a memory card.

Weakness: For a beginner, like me, it was hard to figure out, it comes with no manual, the online manual is huge and it's hard to find what you're looking for. The screen isn't as nice and bright as an HP.

I like the fact that it's small and has a lot of memory. I especially like the flip cover that comes with it. It protects the screen but doesn't add a lot of bulk! It holds everything I need including my digital pictures. Now that I've figured it out I really like it. It just took me a few days to figure it out.

Palm Tungsten T5 PDA

Strengths: Ability to hot sync data from other palm pda, bluetooth capability to interchange with my nokia 6820

Weakness: Price is a little steep

This PDA appears to have the quality much like the Tungsten T3, but with much more memory, and a fixed display with the landscape/portrait layout. Very sleek and versatile. Photos can be transferred via bluetooth or by just viewing the compatible SD memory from my Casio camera. Very useful for carrying photos in your pocket.

Palm Tungsten T5 PDA

Strengths: Sharp screen; stylish finish; lightweight; powerful

Weakness: no

I upgrade my zire 72 to Tungsten T5. The zire 72's(not special edition version) blue paint started to peel off. This one looks very cool and stylish. It is also very powerful with fast transferring speed. Easy to use.

Palm Tungsten T5 Review

The Tungsten T5 is the successor to the popular Tungsten T3 and is palmOne's flagship "business" PDA. Not that you can't use the T5 for multimedia, but its fast processor, plentiful memory and lack of camera put it in the business class. While the Tungsten T, T2 and T3 featured a unique slider design, the T5 has a slate form factor and doesn't slide.
