Palm m515 PDA

Strengths: Palm OS, Simple physical design, reliability.

Weakness: Needs better manuals to describe all of the features.

I bought the Palm m515 for 349 (plus the $50 rebate) and I think it is FANTASTIC. I had the Palm IIIe and the Palm m105 and enjoyed both units. But the color of the Palm m515 BLEW BOTH UNITS OUT OF THE WATER. I never lost any data with my Palms and I look to continue this record with the Palm m515. The expansion cards open up another world to the Palm PDA. I can add what I want and not bother...

Palm m515 PDA

Strengths: Palm Operating System, availability of Software, Speed of operation.

Weakness: Slightly slow when displaying the contents of the SD Memory card I have attached but still much better than most PC products.

As a prior Palm owner of a IIIxe and IIIc I can say this is by far the best Palm yet. I have tried the PC 2002 and even though it comes with 64 Mb and has a 200 + processor compared to the Palm 33 Mhz the Palm is way faster due to the Palm OS. The code is writen so that it runs faster, at least in my view. Size, Speed, Price, Memory module types and upgradability all make this, in this persons...

Palm m515 PDA

Strengths: versatile, many options, a lot of software, even serial GPS can be hooked up to it.

Weakness: Very weak internals. Can be killed by a static discharge.

Mine was an open box product that was suppose to go through a complete check. Guess what. It did not work at all. Would not sync. Memory did not work correctly. Customer care was confusing and without the second call I would not know that I was lied to the first time I called. I was assured that I would get a replacement together with a return address label. Turns out I was just going to be...

Palm m515 PDA

Strengths: Display is excellent. Very easy to use. The built in battery that charges while in sync cradle is great.

Weakness: short battery life when in use

Have owned several PDA's prior, but none come close to this. Congat's to Palm on this one. The color display is second to none. Anyone who see's it cannot believe how great the screen look's and can not wait to get their hands on it.

Palm m515 PDA

Strengths: 16MB of memory; Palm support has been great.

Weakness: Screen is no improvement over the m505; access to info on expansion card is slow.

I went from a Palm V to a m505. A couple of days after I got my m505, I discovered that Palm had released the m515, so I upgraded to it. I have been disappointed. The m515 is certainly an improvment over the V in terms of space, but there are a few drawbacks. First, Palm inexplicably narrowed the channel or grove that holds the m515 to a wallet or carrying case. The wallet that fit my V so well...

Palm m515 PDA

Strengths: Bright color screen, much better than my old palm 505, or handspring products that I have previously owned.

Weakness: Battery runs down faster, and therefore requires more time on the charger

MP Superstore got the new Palm to me on time and was the best price at the time I could find. I would purchase from their Website again.
