No support available
If you are running Windows 7, DO NOT PURCHASE this product. No support available as it is a product no longer supported by Palm. I have tried every resource I could find to resolve my Hot Sync issues with no luck. Really made a mistake by purchasing this item.

Good Basic Tool
A friend and I needed a way to carry large amounts of simple data without carrying books. We checked for PDA's, but the new ones were quite expensive and did all kinds of things we didn't need or want to do. This level of technology is perfect for this specific use. We can sit in class and look up information and specific passages in books that we've downloaded. We've worked with them for about 4 weeks now, and they are good, serviceable, and if they die in a year we're not out a ton of money. Highly recommended.

Does everything I need it to do
I bought this to help me do inventory at work, as well as to help keep track of my food orders from different providers, and so far I am very pleased with the machine. It does everything I need it to do and more. I was able to download a spreadsheet program that makes doing my inventory very easy.

DISAPPOINTED
I BOUGHT THIS FOR MY 18 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER, SHE LOVED IT BUT HAD TO
SEND IT BACK BECAUSE IT WORKED TWO DAYS. I LIKE THE FEATURES BUT
NOT SURE HOW LONG THE REPLACEMENT WILL LAST. THE SCREEN STOPPED
WORKING WITH THE STYLUS. BOUGHT THUMBOARD, WORKED ONE DAY AND QUIT.

All the information you don't want to keep on your business Blackberry
I had a vintage (legacy) Palm Pilot Professional which has outlasted several computers. Alas, my current computer is petulant will not talk with the venerable Palm Pilot Professional. Not wanting to store my personal information on my business Blackberry, and having no need for yet another cellular phone, I selected the Palm m500 as my solution. Renew Electronics offered it at a very attractive price. Unfortunately, the original unit provided by Renew Electronics proved faulty, but Renew Electronics rose to the occasion, offering several suggestions to remedy the problem and, when they did not work, replacing the original unit. The replacement works well and provides all the functions I need and more.
