Good backups of my Palm have saved my fanny several times. One time, I ended up using an obscure, almost forgotten and out of date backup file because every other backup I had was dead. I hope I never relive that day- and with some solid backup software, I shouldn’t have to.

Over a year and a half ago in December 2004, the much anticipated Treo 650 smartphone arrived on the market. This first model was a CDMA version from Sprint, but several months later a GSM version and then a version from Verizon also became available. Since its release, the 650 has become the most popular smartphone (combination PDA / mobile phone) device on the market. Time has not stood still for Palm. Their latest smartphone is the 700p. Should 650 owners pony up to buy this upgraded model, or should they keep their cash and wait for something with more revolutionary features, instead of evolutionary?

I recently purchased a Treo 650 and like most people, I needed a case to protect my new toy. Having purchased cases from EBcases before, I quickly went to their site to see what was available for my Treo and I was presently surprised by the eNovo case. The eNovo case is a hard leather

Over the years, I have had many Vaja cases to protect my PDAs. All very stylish and unmatched in quality. These trends continue with Vaja’s PA21 Palm T5 case. That being said, I believe Vaja could add a few options to make this case even better. As usual, the rich leather smell, artistry, and quality

Palm’s newest entry level PDA is the Z22. Coming in below the sweet spot of $100, this PDA gives you all of the basic PIM (Personal Information Management) features that we’ve come to expect in a personal digital assistant, while leaving the power user features for the more expensive models. Unlike Windows Mobile device manufacturers,
Last Fall Palm introduced the Tungsten | T5 model PDA. Now one year later, they have released the TX model. The T5 and the TX share quite a few similar features including the same body case size and style. That should come as good news for T5 owners looking to upgrade to the latest and
I can’t even begin to say how many times I have wanted to run a quick errand without taking along more than the basic necessities – my ID, Amex, some cash and my PDA phone. Even as a die-hard Gadgeteer I feel that it is a bit of overkill to make a quick trip to

When I first got my Samsung SPH-i550, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the cradle from its predecessor, the Samsung SPH-i500, could be used for the new model’s syncing and charging.

Does it bug the bajeezus out of anyone besides myself that it seems to have become a trend for PDA manufacturers not to include a desktop cradle with their PDAs any longer? We as consumers spend hundreds of dollars on these devices only to be given a cheapo charging cable instead of a charging cradle.

Knowing my past track record and how notorious I can be for switching PDAs every time something new and shiny comes out, makes it hard for some to believe that I’ve been happily using the HP iPAQ hx4700 since October 2004.
