Palm Pilot V is a nice PDA
Most of the new Palm V's still in boxes unopened have dead batteries. There is a company called Short 'Tronics in Mn that can replace the battery. You can find them on the Web. I bought a Palm Vx box never opened still sealed, but had Short Tronics install a new battery and it now works fine and holds the charge etc. So, if you buy a Palm and it doesnt work chances are its the battery so contact Short Tronics. Tell them Howard (knightlycoins) Refered you. I have over 250 plus positive sales and purchases. The Palm V was replaced by smart phones. The Palm was used in 2000 2001 prior to comprehensive smart phones that could do what the Palm could do. But, it's a nice PDA if you don't want all the bells and whistles of a complicated smart phone. Most of the new Palm V's still in boxes unopened have dead batteries.

A bit old - but still useful for the price
The Palm V PDA is pretty old tech these days, and if you expect something that competes well with a PocketPC, iPhone, or Android then you will be disappointed. It's 160x160 black and white display (16 shades of gray) is blown away by the color display on my old cellular phone. However, if you want an organizer, and don't want to spend a lot of money on today's tech - the Palm V is a good deal. The rechargeable lithium ion battery means you don't need to rob a battery warehouse ful of AA's - and a charge lasts me more than a week. The Palm V come with the standard PDA suite of applications (calendar, contact list, memo pad, calculator, etc...) - and I can load new apps via the HotSync cable. As a Linux user, I was especially happy to discover Linux has strong support for Palm PDAs in ...

As a Linux user, I was especially happy to discover Linux has strong support for Palm PDAs in general. I also like the fact that I can use several open source packages to develop new software for the Palm, in case I wanted to tinker around. One thing I did notice is the cradle appears to be model specific - I have a Palm III, and a cradle for an unknown model, and none of them seems to be interchangable: my Palm III fits neither, and the Palm V does not fit te unknown cradle. While the tech is a bit old, it is stable - and today, it's inexpensive. New (1999), these were over $400 - but now they are available for $5 or so - amazing! While Palm Titanium and such are often listed, you won't get them for such a low price - there is such a low demand for Palm V that you can get one for only a bit over the shipping.

Nice, but simple
The palm V comes with a very simple Palm OS. the newer Palm OS's have better functionality. It looks great, and has a very nice B/W screen. It is lacking in security features. It can only mark individual items private and will not automatically lock. It has to be locked manually and has no power on lock feature. It does connect to the computer and "synchronize". I suspect that it will not work with many new software programs. Also battery replacement requires the unit to be unglued using heat. Uses palm OS 3.0 which is very simple. Has a calculator, contacts, dinner bell (calender), and a text editor, expense log, mail, and a to do list.The palm V comes with a very simple Palm OS. the newer Palm OS's have better functionality.

At this price, I'd buy 10 more if I could find them.
A friend of mine is affected by MS and has no control over his limbs. He is a very talented CAD operator, driving a computer using a stick mounted on a band round his head. His neck is getting sore typing on a fullsized keyboard, so I reprogrammed my Palm V as a miniature programmable keyboard for him. But he dropped it and this is the replacement. I love the touch sensitive screen on the Palm V because it is genuinely TOUCH sensitive. It reacts to pressure, unlike more modern devices which react to capacitance or inductance in the skin. My friend's pointer has a rubber stopper, which is an insulator, so he can't use such a device. This product is incomparable to others. No other can serve this purpose. It has more interface possibilities and is easier to program than Android, for ... A friend of mine is affected by MS and has no control over his limbs.

Old technolgy, but the most reliable!
Ok folks, check the date this review was written. June 7, 06. When was the Palm V released? Around 1999-2000. So, that means that MY unit is nearly 7 years old (actually, I got the original reciept from the original owner. It IS 7 years old). Now, with most 7 year old pieces of technology, they'd be found in a scrap heap, or an antique store. But not this. Anyone who does away with one of these (unless serious issues arise, of course) can be labled a fool. Why? Lets examine it: I have had 7 PDA's in my life. Out of all of them, only this 7 year old senior citizen of the technology world has lived up to my expectations. It even blows away from HP RZ1700 that I have in conjuntion with this. True, the Palm V isn't fast, or capable of editing music, pics, ... Ok folks, check the date this review was written. June 7, 06. When was the Palm V released? Around 1999-2000.

True, the Palm V isn't fast, or capable of editing music, pics, etc. But it has the battery life (nearly 1.5 weeks on a single charge, using it on and off). Mind you, that is AFTER 7 years of prior use! It also has the hard titanium case, which has kept it looking spotless. The Palm OS is easy to navigate and learn, with the graffiti feature being top notch among other PDA's. Media storage closet or speed demon it is not, but it will hold massive amounts of contacts in addition to emails and notes. Plus, sync is quick and painless. Plus, you can't beat the fact that you can get GPS recievers for it here on ebay. A complete GPS/Palm V combo will run you nearly $50. Thats a drop in the bucket compared to todays $500-$700 updated models with color maps, etc. Now, it does have downsides. It only has 2 megs of memory (8 megs for the Vx version). It also cannot play music, edit any windows files, edit pics, view pics, plus it has a monocolor screen (though backlighting on this is very nice). However, all in all, you won't find a more reliable, more versitle PDA (in my opinion) ANYWHERE, even here on Ebay, for less than $50, and most likely even under the $75 mark.
