    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.

    Duration of ownership: 10 Months

    Strengths: Makes an OK paperweight

    Weaknesses:Not reliable

    Overall Evaluation: After 4 months mine went dead. Palm wanted $75 to look at it. I found a website that instructed me to take it apart and unplug the battery. It wasn't easy but it worked. I have to repeat the process about once a month.

    Duration of ownership: 8 Months

    Strengths: When first bought this was my answer to all of my desires. It had a crisp display and most of the features that I needed. Touch pad was extremely sensitive and accurate.

    Weaknesses:Eight months later, the touch screen malfunctioned. Could not enter data in the lower portion of the screen. No data could be entered except via computer interface. Tech support was NO help.

    Overall Evaluation: This really started out to be a great tool. I needed something like this to enter data for work. It really worked flawlessly for about eight months and then the trouble started. Tech support said to do a hard refresh and re center the touch pad. No joy Went back to them and got no response at all. WOULD NOT BUY ANOTHER PALM TOOL.

    Duration of ownership: 1 Years

    Strengths: Great functionality for a reasonable price

    Weaknesses:The screen makes a loud noise and Palm says its normal

    Overall Evaluation: When I first got my Tungsten E2 I loved it. It did everything I wanted and was easy to use. After about a year it all of a sudden developed a very loud buzz/hum from the screen. It is loud enough that everyone around me can hear it and it drives me nuts. I thought surely it must be malfunctioning and Palm should send me a new one. After a mandatory $25 customer service charge Palm told me that the screen noise is normal operating procedure for the E2 and refused to warranty it. However, they did say they could fix it for $125. Luckily I bought an extended warranty and have been trying to get it repaired through that. After two repair attempts I was finally told that I will be receiving a check for the cost of the unit. I definetly will not get another E2 and don't know if I should get another Palm. Be forewarned don't get the E2, it will develop a buzz.
