OK, so that's the superficial stuff. Think about your needs. Do you REALLY need to be able to access the internet when you're out and about? Do you really need all the bells and whistles found on the much more expensive models? If you do, you do. But if you really just need to have your calendar, task list, address book, etc. at your fingertips at all times, this wonderful little Palm will make you happy happy happy. I love mine. The batteries seem to last forever, which is another bonus. I sync it to my calendars on my computer and on the web, and I (and my family) can always know where I am or where I need to be. hmmm. Maybe I should rethink this...:) But I never rethink my Palm m100. It just rocks.

Lifesaver
I bought this little gadget when I was a substitute teacher and a full-time college student. I had been using Microsoft Outlook at home for a long time so that I could keep track of my assignments and all of my different appointments. The problem was I could only check that when I was at home. What I really needed this for was an extension of my PC so that I could access my information when I was out. This little device has kept me on time, and on task.

I had concerns that I wouldn't use it and that it would be difficult to enter information, but not at all. The handwriting style takes just a few minutes to get used to and this is small enough that it slips into pockets in my book-bag or even the back pocket of my jeans. I also worried that the 2MB memory wouldn't be enough. I have over 200 contacts and 12 months worth of to-do lists and appointments and am only using 2% of the memory. Programs take up more space, but this still enough for the average user.

Why 5 stars?:
The price is just right for this! There is more than enough memory for an address book, date book, reminders, and notepad. It's a nice size and it synchronizes with Microsoft Outlook with no problem at all.

HORRIBLE QUALITY
My mother gave me a Palm M105 for my birthday in December 2001, and I soon fell in love with it, and carried it everywhere. Within 30 days it began to just totally shut down, and refuse to turn on. I could hard reset, hot sync, and get another day out of it, and then it would die again. I returned it and replaced it with an M100. It lasted 22 days, and is now doing the same thing. Returned it yesterday, and am researching for a different brand. STAY AWAY FROM PALM.
