If you're still using a paper planner, maybe it's time to catch up with technology and upgrade to the affordable and easy-to-use Palm Z22 handheld. It enables you to keep your entire day-to-day schedule and contact information at hand and in your pocket--no more flipping through multiple pages, looking for scraps of paper or keeping track of to-do lists. And you won't have to enter the same thing twice--once on the computer and once in your planner, as you can easily make updates on your computer and synchronize data to the Palm Z22 in just a minute or two.

Summary
My oldest son started high school this year and he asked if he could have PDA of his own to help him organize his life. I told him that I would have to do some checking to see if I could find a decent PDA that wasn't a lot of money. I was shopping...
Strength
Compact size, bright backlighting and auto shutoff
Weakness
no attached protective cover
Bottom Line
I would recommend this for beginners and parents looking for an organizer for their kids.
I have never been a very organized person when it comes to addresses, birthdays or appointments. I decided that at my age it was finally time for me to get organized, since my memory tends to leave me every now and again. I knew that I wanted a PDA,...
Strength
Easy to work, lightweight
Weakness
Nothing I have found
Bottom Line
This is great for those who are looking to organize their lives.
Introduction Back in the early 1980's, I recall discussing Moore's law. We had determined that by around 2005, people would have the power of some of the most expensive workstation and mainframe computers in something about the size of a pocket...
Strength
Durable, easy to use, quite flexible and powerful, price is right
Weakness
Warranty sucks, no expansion capability, batteries are sealed inside
Bottom Line
This is best for beginners, students, business executives and gadget lovers. A few shortcomings, but still worth the price.
This little beauty has really been marketed as a palm pilot for the novice PDA user: something simple enough not to scare your grandma and easy enough to wean Luddites from their sticky notes. I don't fit in that demographic, but I love this PDA for its...
Strength
Small, light, looks cool, non-volatile memory, very cheap.
Weakness
This version of PalmOS removes important options.
Bottom Line
Buy it. If what you are looking for is a PDA and not a laptop in your pocket, this is perfect.
I got this as a backup to my TX which I lost. This was a special promotional package it seems because I got 2 colored plastic rubber covers and a set of international AC plug adaptors for same price of $99. The AC adaptor, charger now supports...
Strength
Small and light, USB, international charger, different plugs for different countries, free plastic covers.
Weakness
Display is too low resolution, loading photos complicated, price too high, looks like ipod
Bottom Line
Not many to choose from these days, good backup but not for power users or business.
When I went shopping and ultimately purchased the Palm z22, I was replacing a Handspring Visor Neo that I had had since 2001. It was definitely time for an upgrade. But I did not need a lot of features -- I didn't need to access the Internet, I didn't...
Strength
Small, lightweight, easy to use, syncs easily w/Mac, inexpensive
Weakness
Everything has to look like an iPod now? Also cases, screen protectors
Bottom Line
This is the perfect PDA for users needing easy of use and basic functions with an inexpensive price. Great for Mac users because of easy syncing.
Since receiving this Z22 Palm Pilot last year as a Christmas gift I have never missed an appointment! It even has a handy reminder alarm that you can set! It holds all my favorite games, and even my pictures. When adding friends and family to your...
Strength
Easy to use, light weight decent price
Weakness
Pictures aren't as clear as I feel they should be.
Bottom Line
It is simple to use, and at about $100 gets the job done!
I was thinking over the last year about an organizer. I go to school, and using an agenda was alright, but I don't think i'd take it with me to an outing to remember a friend's birthday. Or play a game. Or remember all my homework, be able to categorize,...
Warning: Underpowered, very poor screen, poorly made

Summary
The Palm Z22 is cheap, and for a good reason: it's a very cheaply made PDA with a processor supplied by a third-world manufacturer. Its memory (about 18MB actually accessible to the end user) is also very slow, and cannot be expanded. But, you say,...
Strength
Cheap
Weakness
Cheaply built; cheap looking; slow processor; little RAM; very poor non-color screen; terrible
Bottom Line
The Z22 is a true disgrace to the Palm brand name and is not good for anyone. Spend a little more for a much more powerful and useable Windows Mobile.
My husband bought me this Palm Z22 as a Christmas gift, a year and a half ago. I love that it was so small and functional. The ability of putting all my address and e-mails in there was a huge plus. It’s great to be able to just plug it into my home...
Strength
Small, handy to hold addresses and e-mails.
Weakness
Too hard to write things out.
Bottom Line
I would not buy this unless you are a simple person and you don't mind lettering in each word or note you want.
