Palm m515 : What the m505 should have been... Is it too little too late?

byyusakugo Apr 2, 2002
86 Helpfuls 87 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros 16 MB RAM, brighter screen, nice form factor, expandible memory
Cons Not the top of the Palm technology ladder
Recommended it? Yes

Overview: The Short Take

In reality, the m515 is a minor update to the m505 with an additional bit of tweaking to what may be considered the high end of Palm hardware. m505 sales were disappointing especially when compared to the prior sales of the Palm V and Vx models of the recent past... Read full review »

Pros Much improved color screen, 16MB of DRAM, thin, light and expansion flexibility.
Cons Still standard resolution and screen isn't as bright as the Clie color screens

Pros None!
Cons Everything!
Recommended it? No

Pros Fits is pocket. Easy to figure out.
Cons No alarm or reminder on To Do list. Tasks did not download.
Recommended it? Yes

I don't do well with regular calendars, so this works well for me. As long as I enter in my appointments, I can see what is next to do. I just bought mine last night, and I really like it so far. One problem I noticed was that three of my appointments did not download to the organizer,so I had to... Read full review »
