Pros the best screen quality, SD and CF card slot, Windows Mobile 2003 OS
Cons Flip cover is too small and battery life is too short
Recommended it? Yes

When I first started my current job I given a Palm Zire 21 to use. I used it to take notes and keep track of important instructions. Unfortunately the Zire 21 was very limited and I needed a PDA with more memory and a expansion slot. I put in a request to my boss to get a newer PDA and after a bit... Read full review »

Pros Awesome resolution. Bright Screen. Excel/Word. CF/SD card capability.
Cons HP non-support. Flimsy non-standardized charger connection. Battery life.
Recommended it? No

This was bought for me to use at work, but it would never charge properly, was always flukey, but HP wouldn't authorize a return until it completely failed after only a few months. Then, HP wouldn't honor the warranty as they claimed it had been subjected to abuse, even though I'd contacted very... Read full review »

Pros Small Color No batteries required Plenty fast
Cons Might not serve all of your needs (wireless? more memory? larger screen?)
Recommended it? Yes

I was given a Zire 31 on http://www.freecycle.org/ after my Handspring Visor Deluxe just stopped powering up. The Visor was grayscale, so the sharp color screen of the Zire was a really nice surprise. My PDA needs are pretty sparse these days: I keep my contact list, calendar, shopping list (Handy...

Pros Color, MP3 player, small, easy to use
Cons Screen could be better, processor is a little slow
Recommended it? No

I just bought a Palm Zire 31 for my dad. He told my that he wanted a MP3 player and he also wanted a chess computer. So, I thought about getting him a PDA. I looked for the least expensive PDA that had an MP3 player built into it. So, I found the Palm Zire 31. I myself have a Palm Zire 72s and I'm... Read full review »
