User Submitted Palm Tungsten W - Palm OS 4.1.1 - MC68VZ328 33 MHz - RAM: 16 MB - ROM: 8 MB TFT ( 320 x 320 ) - IrDA - GSM 900/1800/1900 Reviews (cont...)Date: 2004-01-31 It's a great all in one device I own this divice and it's been great for me. For those looking for the best cell phone features or the best palm features look to buy them seperately. But if you need a device that does a good job at both, look no further. The only con for me is that it doesn't have wi-fi access, but I can access the internet from anywhere via AT&T GSM service. Date: 2004-01-25 Much better that reviews indicate The product is far better than reviews lead you to believe. As a planner, the product is all one could ever hope for unless you are looking for extra frills (camera, mp3 player). The ability to see web pages in real perspective and send and receive e-mail at this price also makes this a great product. There may be better products, but not at this price. Other palms may have internet access but you will be limited to certain locations (wi-fi, etc.). I have been able to get on line everywhere. Date: 2004-01-22 leesea Tungsten W is an obsolescent device and I DON'T recommend it for following reasons: 1)it is locked to AT&T which does not offer good GSM service in as many areas as other providers, 2)it has an older version of Palm OS4 which PalmOne is not going to update, 3)it has a slower chip running at 66mhz which is tied to the OS which has been superseded by new versions. The later two points make it not a good PDA. In addition PalmOne does not have good customer support and didn't even offer me a trade-up to Tunstgen C or Treo 600. Date: 2004-01-05 Great Device You have to be tech saavy to use this device, and you have to know the equipment to buy to make this a useable and efficient device. It is for advanced users, and the best all in one device on the market. Date: 2004-01-04 Unlocking Palm Tungesten W PDA If you want to switch to different GPRS/GSM carrier for your Palm Tungesten W, contact BongoWireless (of Canada) to get your device unlocked for $100 - and you will be able to use your device to work with any GPRS/GSM providers around the world by popping in purchased SIM card inside the back of Palm Tungesten W. Also, please read Palm Support's email response regarding the AT&T for USA and elsewhere in the world: Hope it helps. - RJR ============================== Tungsten W handhelds sold in the US are SIM locked to AT&T. The Palm Tungsten W is SIM card locked to AT&T in the United States because of our business relationship with AT&T. There are International versions of the Tungsten W sold in other Thank you,
