Title: Palm specialist says stay away
Review: I am the Palm Specialist for a large hospital. When the Palm m505 first came out, one of our MD's bought one. From the get-go it had hardware problems and, in the end, we warranty-replaced it four times for different hardware problems (a bad screen, a bad power button, no hotsyncing through the cradle, etc). Since then, two other MD's got m505's and both of them have had the hardware go bad (hotsync hardware problems both times) and they recently got warranty replacements. Palm Desktop 4.0.1 was used in each case, which had a fix for m505 USB syncing, but that did not help our situation. We now have a policy that Palm m505's and m500's are discouraged. (There is an m500 that has given us glitches with Hotsyncing upon occasion, although it has not completely died yet). I recommend the Sony Clie T615 for the Color Palm OS option.
Is the review positive or negative?
