  Pros: A fairly functioning device for a while. Some good third party software.
  

  Cons: Rotten support. Not robust. This is a design issue, not a software flaw. Within a year of mostly keyboard use my first screen failed. I got it replaced under warranty less than six months ago. The second screen has gone fro drift to almost no digitizer calibration. I can see the first bad pixels, and I know how fast they come. Off to buy a third party, but I don't remember anything this wide spread in the earlier Palms or Handspring devices. I need this and don't find what I want in Cleo, etc, so I am stuck with replacing a screen,

• Great divice at first, but turns bad quickly

  Pros: Nice big screen and great pop up keyboard feture. Nice for pictures, video, and music. Good bit of storage (I thought). Good web broser, and great in landscape mode. Nice note pad feature.
  

  Cons: I had high hopes for this product, mainly because of where it came form. I mean palm is one of the leaders in the PDA market, but saddly this one they didn't do to well with. The TX worked fantastic for the first two months that I had it, but then I desided to download some free software off of the palm website. As soon as I had the program downloded my palm went in to an endless loop of reset after reset. I coulden't do anything, but hopelessly watch and wait for it to stop. It finaly did stop reseting, but it was only because the battery was dead. As soon as I plugged it up it went right back into the same endless reset. I might have expected this if the program came form some third party websit, but I got that program directly form the palm website which I accesed directly from an appliction key on the start up page. Palm needs to do some seriouse revising and testing on there next big model, because this is simply unacceptable.

• Palm OS still better than Windows

  Pros: Palm OS still better than Windows for Laridian Bible and Medical software, and Word. Occasionally, may need to get ChatHelp from Palm to sync, or replace a battery or Digitizer, ...but thats better than Windows OS! It is handy, fits in your pocket..unlike a small laptop.
  

  Cons: Browser

• Digitizer drift makes using TX near intolerable

  
  

  Submitted by jshock on 4/11/2008 2:59:39 PM

  Pros: Useful selection of bundled and third-party apps available. Large, bright screen. Syncs well with mac. WiFi works great.
  

  Cons: Digitizer began drifting after about a year. Frequently crashes. Even after hard reset and no 3rd-party apps installed, digitizer still drifts way off. Screen is often unresponsive and takes several taps to acknowledge input. Palm support suggested hard reset, then did not respond to further emails.

  Pros: Just a great product! Palm really got it right with this model! Just have to wait for a treo with WiFi, that will be the SEX!
  

  Cons: Lots of random crashes, when i say lots, thats more than my E2. I love it though, and i can live with it being a bit odd now and again!

• It's yesterday's technology, but is way more stable than today's alternatives

  Pros: - Simple, well-understood GUI - Bulletproof personal-data suite - Never have to wait for the calendar app to come up - Networking (both bluetooth and Wifi) is painless - The simple things I most often use (PDA functions) never fail me - The purchased version of Pocket Tunes is remarkably versatile - Massive base of existing software, and intelligent treatment of early (Dragonball-based) apps I came back to the Palm platform after leaving it for a few years and sampled the Windows Mobile and Linux-based PDAs. Sadder but wiser, I have come to regard the PalmOS 5.4+ devices as the least-worst of the available handhelds.
  

  Cons: - The supplied web browser (Blazer) is adequate but has a couple of painful bugs - Alternative browsers (e.g. Opera) have even more disappointing problems - Palm seems to regard all but the Treo 650 as "not really worth supporting" - Factory-supplied Graffiti 2 is awful -- I installed the old Graffiti library

  Overall Score: 8/10

• FRUSTRATED!!!!

  
  

  Submitted by steve on 11/28/2007 10:32:11 AM

  Pros: Nice Wirelss, fast access. Bright, clear screen that is adjustable, nice MP3, can get radio over the Internet.
  

  Cons: I bought my Palm T|X less than a year ago to replace my Sony Clie that I had left on the airplane. At first I was very pleased with my Palm, now it is all I can do to keep from chucking it in the trash. The pointer pen will not calibrate. No matter how precise I try to calibrate the pen, I still have a problem activtivating the control I point to. I had my Clie for several years and never had this problem. Unfortunately, Sony discontinued the Clie. If you can't use the pointer on the Palm, the whole palm is pretty much useless!
