Handspring VISOR NEO BLUE

Handspring Visor Neo

WHAT'S HOT: A great entry-level PDA, the Visor Neo features 8MB of memory, a funky translucent case that shows the electronics (and is available in three colors: red, blue, and smoke), and Handspring's Springboard expansion slot. The slot can accommodate any one of a range of extra-cost gadgets such as an MP3 player, a wireless modem, or a GPS receiver, though these add-ons tend to cost more than their CompactFlash counterparts.

WHAT'S NOT: Some Handspring PDAs come with a leather slip case, but the Neo comes with only an awkward snap-on plastic cover. A detachable flip-over or side-attached cover like the ones on many other models would be far more welcome.

WHAT ELSE: The 16-shade gray-scale screen looked fine both indoors and out, thanks to its high contrast and a strong backlight. The Neo uses two AAA batteries. A new feature, Fast Lookup, mimics the Pocket PC's directional pad by letting you use buttons on the front of the unit instead of the stylus to flip through contacts.

UPSHOT: The affordable Visor Neo makes a great entry-level PDA, perfect for keeping your schedule on track, and you can add multimedia extras later as available cash and whimsy dictate.
