"What the Honda Civic is to the Accord, the Pixi Plus is to the Pre Plus. While not entirely hobbled, the Pixi flutters in the shadow of the Pre with a smaller screen, a slower processor, and a lower-resolution camera, but balances the handicaps with a lightweight, easy-to-use form factor that finds fans in nearly everyone who handles it. It will have to be the body that sells it. Even with Wi-Fi added for the Plus variant, we find it hard to recommend the stripped down Pixi when the much more capable Pre stands only $70 away."

When the courier came and dropped off the box on my doorstep a short while ago, my brother asked me what I was going to review now. I told him that it was an unlocked Palm Centro. He immediately responded by asking, "Palm still makes cell phones?"

Palm is at it again, this time fighting for your attention (and money) with the new Centro Smartphone.

The Tungsten T3 is one of the high-end PDA's from palmOne. This little beauty has a gorgeous 320x480 Transreflective TFT color screen. The screen is the same size as the Tungsten T5's screen, but it packs all of this into a smaller footprint due to the sliding screen, making it much more convenient to carry than some of the bigger units available. Like the T5 it can rotate 90 degrees to give a "landscape" view of whatever application you are using. We got to test drive the T3 along with the WiFi card for a month. Sweet deal, huh?

The 750 is saddled with a bloated price: $399.99 with a two-year contract and including a $100 rebate, but $649.99 if you're not buying or extending your Cingular plan. Considering the $499/$599 pricing on the 4GB and 8GB iPhones due in June or the similarly-spec'd Samsung Blackjack at $199.99 w/contract or $499.99 w/o contract, it's hard to justify opting for the 750.

Although the 700p sports the same 312MB processor it does have add a considerable, and much needed, amount of memory going from 23MB to 60MB. This nice upgrade will allow you to store more data on the device instead of an annoyingly inconvenient (and easily lost) memory card. Another much needed upgrade is the new 1.3MP camera, which is considerably better than the VGA camera that comes with the 650.

When rumours surfaced that Palm was making a Treo powered by Windows Mobile rather than Palm OS, you could almost hear the collective sharp intake of breath from Palm fans. It was true though and on 26 September 2005 the Windows Mobile based Palm Treo made its debut in the US. Here in the UK we?ve had a much longer wait to get our hands on a Windows Mobile Treo, but that wait is now over and it is now available exclusively on Vodafone, at
least for a little while, before presumably, becoming more widely accessible.

The Palm LifeDrive is the first of what we hope will be many "Mobile Managers" by the once king of PDAs. The heart of the LifeDrive concept is integrating a micro hard drive into the PDA. If you ever thought it would be nice to have your essential PIM information in the same device as your pictures and music, all rolled up in a clean interface, your answer may have arrived...

It has its faults, but nit picking aside if you analyse the Z22 from the point of view of a newcomer to PDA-land, who wants a simple electronic organiser, then the device stacks up fairly well, both in terms of costs and features...

Palm has decided to throw a lot at this device, both in terms of software and specifications. So we have both WiFi and Bluetooth - yes, apparently it is possible to get Wi-Fi into a traditional, non-hard drive based palm - something that seemed to be impossible when Riyad reviewed the Tungsten T5. 100MB of memory is available to the user, all of it non-volatile (i.e. you won't lose any of your installed software or data if the battery runs down completely), the screen can be used in both landscape and portrait modes, and there is plenty of built in software designed to cater for the needs of both professionals and consumers...
