Pros None!
Cons Everything!
Recommended it? No

For fifteen years, I had a Sharp YO-600 electronic organizer.  It only had 64 KB of memory, so I reached the point where I had to get something with more memory.  Naively, I purchased a Sharp Wizard OZ-590A.  I can't begin to express how disappointed I have been.  When I turned the YO-600 on, I...

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 »

I fell in love with the idea of an E-Book reader when I saw a friend using her Kindle to read a newspaper. I've wanted one ever since, but the price always made it prohibitive. Still, I've been looking at both the Kindle and Sony eBook reader for awhile. This past Valentine's day, I came across a... Read full review »

Cons Many complain of the glare and recommend trading up to the 650

I have researched and thought about buying an eReader for some time now, and had just about convinced myself that I was going to buy a Nook when I came into possession of a PRS-600 by unfortunate circumstances. My grandmother recently passed, and when she did so she left a PRS-600, less than a year... Read full review »
