User Reviews for Palm Tungsten E2 PDA (200MHz, 32MB, SD/MMC/SDIO Card, Palm OS v5.4)

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Nice organizer. Great features. Compact and easy to use.

    Weaknesses: Touch screen fails often. Can't handle more than 1GB memory card.

    Overall Evaluation: The touch screen broke after 8 months. Replaced whole unit and 2nd E2 touch screen went bad after 4 months!! I babied it but the touch screen still failed!! It starts by activating the line below/above where you touch. It gets twitchy and will jump around where you touch. When you try to re-calibrate the touchscreen, it will keep asking you to endlessly touch the points on the screen over and over. Finally, you try to activate ABC or 123 and all it gives you is "." or "-" symbols. Best Buy no longer carries PDAs, so I received a store credit.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Palm OS

    Weaknesses: Units built to fail with heavy use

    Overall Evaluation: I'm stuck on palm OS, this is my 15th palm PDA. I now expect units to fail within 1 year, usually last about 8 months (I'm a heavy user.) Until I migrate to smartphone or Windows OS I'll just keep buying these.
