The new Palm VIIx

Posted by Hemos on from the me-wants-one dept.

Several readers wrote in about the new Palm VIIx. It looks really nice and all, but I've got to say that the Handspring looks good too. If anyone's had a chance to use a prerelease of the new VIIx, please post your experiences below.

  1. Don't forget the m100 by generic-man · · Score: 5

    The m100, also on Palm's web site came out today. It has 2MB of RAM and is designed to replace the Palm IIIe, and compete with the Handspring Visor. Despite not having the Visor's SpringBoard slot, the m100 sports a cover with a special hole so that you can see the clock through it, and changeable faceplates. It also allegedly has flash memory for OS upgrades, something the Visor lacks.

    Also today, the Vx debuted in two limited-edition colors: champagne and "millennium blue." Kind of a shame that there wasn't any other innovation attached.
