Palm Tungsten Handheld
I have used Palm products for a number of years now, and have generally been satisfied with them. However, this handheld posed some problems. Most notably, it would not synchronize with the software from my previous Palm (a Z22) and trying to do so wiped out all the data on the Palm Desktop on my laptop. The Palm website was not of much help in retrieving any of this - I found it needlessly complicated. As a result, I ended up having to recreate my whole name/address data base manually. Not a fun experience.

It's my 4th and last Palm
Discouraged lower-level user here. I wanted a PDA, not a phone, so I got 4th PDA since 1998--a Tungsten E2. Since nobody in my town retails them any more, bought online (great Amazon service.)Still can't get E2 to sync with Outlook. I'm willing to settle for syncing with Palm Desktop Software, have read blogs, tried several fixes, still no joy. Lack of support seems a deal-breaker. MS Vista doesn't support online Help in Palm Desktop Software. You need Google to find help on Palm's web site. Trying to avoid spending $50 more for 3rd party patch just to make it do the basic deal: be my handheld, and get backed up.

More Chinese Junk
Another case of Chinese Junk? Several years ago Palm products came with a one year warranty. Now this junk comes with a 90 day warranty and for good reason. Five months after purchase this thing started dying. Of course it's outside the 90 day warranty so $200 gone for five months use. What a waste of money. This is what happens when we become a nation of consumers/service oriented and not a nation of manufacturers.
Before this Palm Tungsten E2, I had a Palm Z22 that lasted eight months.
I lost all of my data as this thing just quite. I finally destroyed it with a sledge hammer.
Before my Z22 I had a M505 that last for years. Made in USA of course, and I was very happy with it.
Thank goodness I only spend $100.00 on that piece of garbage Z22. Again made in China with a 90 day warranty.
I will never again purchase a Palm product. Complete garbage. Since my Tungsten E2 died I am looking for a replacement, but I can guarantee you it won't be a Palm.
Perhaps all of these are made in China. Make sure it comes with more than a 90 day warranty.

Palm Tungsten E2
Received this product in good shape , everything so far is up and running. I use this in Real Estate for my appointments, calculate but mostly to open up lockboxes while showing clients around some homes that we preview.

Best electronic that organizes my life
I love this product. I organize my schedule everyday. I use it for nursing school; medicine drugs, diseases, and more information that I could get in 2 seconds. This product has improved my life for the best.
