Product Requirements: Device: Palm Tungsten T I’ve had my Tungsten T for several months now, and have been waiting impatiently for a perfect case to use with it. At the moment, I’m using a Digital Express flip case. It is a nice case, but I’ve been looking forward to receiving a Vaja case. I’ll admit

I have just received the newest version of an already fabulous program: QLaunch. Remember how I complained that the Palm Slim Case pushed on the buttons of my TT while Julie and I were on the COMDEX trip, which completely discharged my battery? DigitSense has come up with a solution for that. The 2.3 version

Now that Palm has released a patch to fix the crappy audio performance on the Tungsten T, how many of you are now using it as your main MP3 player? Do you listen to music thru headphones, earbuds or the speaker? I’ve always used a pair of Sony behind-the-neck-style headphones, but now that my hair

Yesterday was a pretty good day for me…let’s call it an early Valentine’s. Not only did I get flowers and a sweet card from my husband, I also received the new Tungsten T Proporta case, a BoxWave miniSync for my T and… after installing the new Palm Patch, I installed the Pocket Tunes MP3 player!

As a longtime user of the HP200 and its predecessors the HP100 and HP95 (since the late ‘80s), I have been looking for a replacement for these seriously obsolete machines. A PDA which would keep the advantages of a useable keyboard, a real operating system (like the HP’s DOS) with wide software choices, while giving

I’ve been looking into buying a new digital camera to replace or compliment my Nikon Coolpix 990. I either want one camera that is both very small and can take excellent macro shots, or I just want a very small camera that takes great regular shots. So far, I’m really interested in the Minolta DiMAGE

Product Requirements: Device: Windows 98SE and higher I love my Tungsten T, but when I first bought it, I didn’t think I’d ever get any use out of the built-in Bluetooth feature. First of all, I don’t have a Bluetooth enabled mobile phone… mainly because these phones tend to be GSM. GSM coverage (T Mobile)

One of the features that I like best about my Olympus digital camera, beside the fact that it takes such great photos, is that it can use regular AA batteries instead of relying solely on a rechargeable battery pack. Of course, this mainly comes in handy when I am on vacation and can’t charge the

Product Requirements: Device: Handspring Visor, Deluxe, Prism, Pro, Neo and Platinum “I am become Death, the destroyer of PDAs…” Wait, that’s not right! Well, I guess it is applicable for me. Between the dropping, the crashing, and the crushing I can almost hear my PDA start to cry when I grab it in the morning
Janak, over at Pocket PC Thoughts posted a picture of a member of Norway’s Parliament playing Metalion. In and of itself, this wouldn’t be that big of a deal. The problem was, that he was playing the game “right during the middle of Wednesday’s parliamentary debate on Iraq.”So here is my question to you guys

Julie’s and my families are gearing up to take a whirlwind tour of Great Britain for Spring Break. We will be based in Edinburgh and will be visiting London, hopefully Paris, and points of interest between. None of us has been to Europe before, so if you have any words of advice on what we
