Pros Tons of features, great price.
Cons Size of the unit, Pocket PC OS.
Recommended it? Yes

Cons Original packaging,included memory
Recommended it? Yes

I had relied on little yellow sticky notes, torn off pieces of paper, or my memory to keep my professional and personal life in balance for many years. Then a few years ago, I allowed the technology of the Palm M100 to aid me in my quest for perfection and balance. While I enjoyed my new friend,... Read full review »
