 DOA December 30, 2008
bajan
This was intended to be a gift. br /We charged it for more than the required time but it never got past the initial startup screen (orange Palm logo). br /Neither the soft reset nor the hard reset made any difference nor did draining the battery recharging. br /This was obviously a faulty device. br /I've just dropped it off at the post office for return. br /As Amazon have extended the return window for the Christmas period I anticipate a full refund. br /I own a Palm Pilot have had no real issues with it so I was quite disappointed that this organiser (for my wife) was faulty but that's the luck of the draw I suppose.
Efficient personal organizer December 12, 2008
Ruth Duskin Feldman (Highland Park, IL USA)
I have two desks--upstairs and down--and sometimes forgot to enter items on both desk calendars. This small, lightweight personal organizer fits in my pocket and is always with me. I also use it for personal contacts (phone numbers, email addresses), especially for out of town travel. Installation was a breeze, but I had to charge the battery a second time because the unit was slow. Haven't gotten the hang of free writing, but the alphabetic entries with the pointer work fine since recharge.
 EXACTLY what I need, and nothing I don't December 1, 2008
J. Mcilhenney (Lancaster, PA)
I've waited two months before writing this review, but I got to tell you it feels like I've been carrying my Z22 for a year. It does EXACTLY what I need, and nothing I don't. And you cannot beat the below $100 price. br / br /Yes, PDAs are old technology, but I'm not the type that needs the newest anyway. And I really did not want to carry the thing all the time the way I do my cell phone. When I am not at work, I leave work behind. So, part one was not needing it to be a phone too. Then I looked at web-capable PDAs. Oh, man I was really looking. I work in a wireless building on a wireless campus, so I was lusting at what the technology would make possible. Imagine I would always be connected! The downside would be that I would always be connected. And I'm never far away from a PC when I'm on campus anyway. So, part two was not needing it to browse the web. br / br /So, in the end it was all about sticking to simple. My workplace uses Novel Groupwise, and my calendar is always changing with new appointments and changed meeting times. I wanted... actually needed to be sure that anything I got synced with that. I quick Yahoo search found several other colleges that use Groupwise and have instructions for PDA use. Novell has software for sync. All these pointed to Palm as the leader in the choice. br / br /Pro: 1) size. The thing is smaller than anything else I was considering. Which means it fits in my shirt pocket easily. It spends the entire day there, I never notice the weight. If it were bigger I would be tempted to leave it on my desk, and it would be less useful. 2) Sync means one calendar. When I'm at home and my wife asks if I am going to be at such-and-so, I can easily check. I have one calendar now, so nothing gets lost. 3) the alarm. This was important. I need something to remind me I have a meeting and I need to get going. It was easy to set up that any appointment on my calendar has an alarm that warms me 15 minute before hand. If I need to travel, then I set up the travel time as an appointment and I get an alarm that reminds me to get in the car and go. 4) Memos. I did not expect it, but memos I write on the PDA show up on Groupwise the next time I sync. I keep agendas for the meetings that I have, poking them in as the issue comes up, and then have it in Groupwise so that I don't need to re-key the issues for the agenda that I create. 5) battery. Some reviews led me to think that it would be hard to keep it charged, but I normally work 9 and 10 hour day and haven't had any trouble. In fact the battery level seems to be full all the time. It charges all night and that seems to be enough. br / br /Con: 1) there are some goofy things. I attribute them to the link between Palm and Novel and the age of the software. None of these goofy things have caused any loss of information. For example if I sync while a Groupwise appointment is waiting to be accepted, it will give me an error message. Once I accept the appointment and re-sync everything is ok. 2) old technology means that, while Palm does have a support website, nothing is really being updated. The thing works about the same as it did 5 years ago and you need to be OK with that. Palm has moved on to other technology. 3) take it easy. The one time I needed to restart was just after I dropped it. I just dropped it a few inches onto a table, but after that it didn't start. After the restart it had all the information saved as before. I'm a bit of a neat-nic, not the type to be dropping things or leaving my stuff where it is bounced around. After the first drop I take more care where I keep it at night. So I'm not too concerned. 4) the alarm is not very loud. Even turned all the way up, it is not loud. I cannot imagine carrying this in my briefcase and expecting to hear the alarm. I carry it in my shirt pocket where it is about 8 inches from my ear, so for me it works. The upside is that the whole room doesn't jump when it goes off to tell me to leave this meeting and get on to the next thing. 5) Graffiti2 Writing is a joke. I honestly tried to learn it and then I realized that the keyboard has a quick button, now I just use that. br / br /So there you go. Wish someone wrote a review like this when I was looking. br /
Z22--not as good as Z31 November 29, 2008
F. Hosein (Omaha, NE USA)
I purchased the Z22 to replace a Zire 31 (Z31) whose screen stopped responding, despite cleaning and hard resets. This review is based on a comparison of the Z22 to the Z31. The Z22 alarm is not very loud, despite being on the highest setting. In addition, the screen is smaller than the Z31. There is also no music player and memory expansion port. On the plus side, the Z22 is easy to use and has enough memory to meet my day-to-day needs. It was easy to import my Z31 contacts and schedule. Everything works as advertised. My main concern is how long will it work? My Z31 stopped responding after 3 years, despite having a screen protector.
Love It November 20, 2008
