TOP 5 best palms and top 5 worst Palms

For me, the worst handhelds are :

1. the m100 series - because of the small screen, the small memory, small fonts, and a lot of the units hard reset once removing the battery. That's why the US taylor settlement is now in the process.

2. All High end pdas with all the bang and for lots of bucks but very short battery. And even worse - those that have no replaceable battery.

like NZ90 (all the cool features, but bulky and very short battery life) but I wouldn't mind having one that works well for a low price as long as the camera works unlike a lot of them which have CCD problems. as long as I have extra batteries handy.

3. all pdas with digitizer problems and I know a lot of you can relate that even with digifix, a lot of palms you had have a defective screen. casualties are a lot of Tungsten E's 71's and other palms.

4. Pda's with non replaceable batteries and they die out after 20 months. Like some people who had defective Tungsten E's and 71's

5. Lastly, I would have to disagree that the III series were one of the worst. Actually, the original Palm peaked during the III series up to the Vx because of reliability, simplicity and really long battery life. I would say multimedia palms that die after 5-7 hours of wifi are less functional then the original palms that last for more than 2 weeks.

I prefer to have different devices rather than all in one. Because of all in one's very short battery life.

And for my best palms ever are:

1. III series and VII series and all the aaa battery operated palms. - because with the advent of cheap aaa chargers and rechargeable batteries, these models can last forever much more than your lifedrive or your CLIE or your 650.

2. Vx, and Z22 (although I haven't tried the Z22 yet)

also because of their long battery life but if their batteries die and there's no more warranty, there would be a problem.

3. Zire 71 - my first multimedia palm. great hidden camera and auto brightness setting. and all the others like it like the TJ37 and the TH55.

4. my dream palm is a palm with wifi, bluetooth, has a phone, as thin as TJ37, and is powered by a rechargeable AAA batteries for as long as 20 hours with sony software of palm, auto brightness of zire 71, keyboard of tungsten C and has at least 200 GB of memory and is sold for only 15,000 pesos. and that day may come because of the reduction of prices.

5. a palm that can upgrade OS everytime any new OS is there and can do windows, linux, symbian, play nintendo, playstation, sega, and all the emulators too.
