NOT a true TFT screen
Reviewer: Computing Review08 September 2007- Overall 6
If anyone thinks they are getting a real TFT (Transflective) screen with the Palm TX, think again. Personally I think there should be a class-action lawsuit against Palm for advertising it on their website as having a 'TFT screen'. It's absolute BULL... Read more

Unless you are a hardcore PDA user, Palm's TX has all the features you will likely ever need. This includes a bright screen, good storage capacity and impressive connectivity, all in a handheld that retails for less than $300. Read more

Palm TX
Reviewer: Mobile Review13 September 2006You shouldn’t consider Palm TX as a substitute to Palm Tungsten T5, this is a supplemental model. Some specs got better, some got worse. Improvements: Some specs got worse compared to the previous model: If we consider Palm TX from the point of view of a faithful Palm OS user, the model with a $300 price tag (in Russia slightly more expensive) is ideal to replace the old handheld, which got lost/ broken/ outdated. The model simply has no direct rivals. The matter in... Read more

I've owned a Palm Vx since shortly after they first came out, which was probably about 7 years ago. I've used it off and on up until just recently, and even today with its grayscale screen and 8MB of memory it's still a solid little PDA that gets the job ... Read more

Simply Horrible. DO NOT BUY THIS PALM!
Reviewer: Buyzillion.com4 weeks ago- Overall 2
I was thrilled to get my TX. It seemed like the perfect machine. And it should have been. And, at first, it was. This is my fourth different model of Palm Pilot in ten years and I have always been loyal to both brand and the Palm OS. My last was a Tungsten and I decided to move to another model when I became tired of re-calibrating the screen every time I turned it on to use it. THIS IS SO MUCH WORSE! I can barely use it now, and rarely do. The screen needs to be... Read more

PALM TX
Reviewer: jmhall, Ciao17 October 2008- Overall 8
Me and my spouse purchased the Palm TX about 3 years age. We purchased it with the intent of using it for Nursing school. There are several medical programs and reference programs available for Palm PDA and they are reasonably price and some are even free. It is bluetooth capable so if there is an open network available you can surf the web, check your email and other online activities. Read more

Excellent value PDA
Reviewer: Anonymous, Ebuyer.com21 August 2008- Overall 10
This is an excellent value PDA, you have to pay way over 200 quid for an HP iPAQ with similar features and it won't be as easy to use. * Mine came with a UK charger. * Read more
