User Submitted Casio Cassiopeia EM-500 Color Pocket PC (Slate Blue) Reviews (cont...)Date: 2002-10-05 Lasted only 18 months, then died completely The title says it all - I now have an extremely expensive paper weight after less than 18 months of use. I realize that no electronics equiptment seems to last long anymore, but this is ridiculous! Stay away from Casio! Date: 2002-10-01 varied price the price for the casio em-500 is verry ranged in price. why pay ...for this machine? when you can buy it brand new at casios web site for... some of the prices for these devices are steep.and dont take me wrong i dont work for casio.but take my word for it go to casios web site.i relly like this pda.its a great value.and accessories arnt that hard to find there to. i dont know why prices are so high some places!?go to ... and i am not promoting there site. Date: 2002-01-06 In a word...don't I bought this at a club warehouse-type store. I thought it was a good deal since it was packaged with a 32mb multi media card at an incredible price. I knew it did not have all the bells and whistles of a good HP or Compaq, but for my needs it seemed like it would work out fine. Wrong. I could never get it to communicate with my computer. My computer is no lightweight; I am running Windows 2000 Professional with a 1.5 gig Pentium 4. I called the Casio support line, and after 25 minutes of following their suggestions it still didn't work. I took it back for a refund. I will now forget I have ever heard of Casio pocket PCs, and suggest you do the same. Date: 2001-12-29 Perfect For Anyone I received this from my brother for $230 and was a littl iffy on what it would be useful for. I then noticed all of theavalible software and IT COULD PLAY MP3's!! This excited me because I was looking into purchasing a handspring visor (a peice of clay compared to this thing!!!)Sure it only comes with 16 mb but mmc are cheap and small and no cf support. More mmc support is coming (already phones and modems)! If you think this isnt worth it wait till you see the BEAUTIFUL COLOR display(more colors than the ipaq and jornada) and so many programs are avalible. The MIPS processer is so fast and has so many games compatible with it. It may not be as good as the IPAQ you may be looking at but it is the 2nd best. Dont settle for a palm device GET THIS 5 STAR DEVICE!!! Date: 2001-12-14 Feature packed but but EM-200 is worth the extra money. Great product for the price with the ... rebate. This thing does everything Windows does... including crash! The processor needs to be faster and Windows needs to fix their crash problems (but whats new). I also did not get good battery life. It has to be recharged every day or you lose your info. I have had to reinstall everything 3 times! Casio helpdesk claims that I am turning it on in the case because there is a flaw in the design of the buttons on the front. But the power gets low even when sitting around the house for a day. Otherwise, with the right software downloads this little gadget is the most useful thing I've ever owned and has transformed me into an organizing maniac. For the software go to "Freeware.com" or "TwoCows.com" and try "Listpro" for great organization. Also check out "StarTap." GREAT programs!
