User Submitted Sharp OZ-290HII Pen Touch Wizard Organizer with Outlook Sync Reviews (cont...)Date: 2005-09-20 It plain doesn't work After trying for 4 hours (2 by me, 2 by a very technical person) we simply cannot get the Outlook synchronization to work. We've tried both XP and Win2000. The sync software didn't recognize Outlook being installed on the XP machine at all, so we exported my Contacts file and imported it back onto a Win2000 machine. This time it recognized that Outlook was installed, but it still would not sync with the Contacts file. The sync software has instructions that don't mesh with the organizer (such as telling me to "Tap Menu" to synchronize, but there's no button at all called "Menu"). Altogether a collossal waste of time and money. Date: 2005-09-08 Happy customer My product came in a timely fashion and was well packed. It was exactly what I ordered. The price was competitive. Thank you. Date: 2005-08-01 OZ 5, Zire 0 I bought this OZ as a temporary solution till I switched to something bigger. I opted for the PalmOne Zire 72. It worked for about 27 days. Now, I'm back to the OZ. Good, reliable, trusty OZ. Bad, evil, unworth Zire 72. From reading everybody's repair problems with the Zire, I will probably be using my OZ for quite some time while I wait for Palm to fix the Zire. Good, reliable, trusty OZ. Date: 2005-05-04 Not a very good organizer I bought this item thinking it would be great but it really isn't. I generally use the "Phonebook" Feature but you can't fit much on one line, plus it looks awful once you save it - you have to go back in and edit it a lot in order to make it look presentable. My game feature didn't work at all and the screen is really difficult to use - I had to tap certain letters several times before they would come up. The only thing it really has going for it is style but that alone is not worth it. I would not recomend it at all. Date: 2005-04-05 BEWARE - different model shipped than ordered BEWARE - When I ordered this product on Amazon.com, TigerDirect actually was the seller, and they billed me the amount indicated, but shipped me a lower version of the model than advertised. I was shipped an OZ-290, not an OZ-290H. The model shipped to me does not have the health functions such as the pedometer and the calorie function. When I called customer support at TigerDirect they did tell me that I could return the item for a full refund, but that the item I thought I was ordering was more expensive and they couldn't do an exchange. TigerDirect claims this site is mis-linked. Beware that if you purchase this product you are actually buying an OZ-290 without the pedometer and calorie functions. Otherwise, if you are looking for a simple electronic organizer that does the job, and you don't mind investing a nominal amount of extra time to learn how to use this organizer, over an easier to use Palm Pilot, and you don't want the pedometer/calorie counting functions, the Sony OZ-290 is a good buy. But I would go someplace else before buying from TigerDirect again.
