Product Description
Palm puts the pleasure in staying organized with the Palm Z22 handheld: an incredibly easy-to-use personal organizer. Featuring a bright color display, it gives you easy access to your calendar, contacts and photos. You can make changes and add new records by writing on the screen. All your information is stored safely in the handheld's non-volatile memory. When you get home just press a button to copy the information to your PC or Mac for safekeeping. And all this in cool and compact design you'll love.

Amazon.com Product Description
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.

This handheld features a 32 MB of flash memory (20 MB accessible for file and software storage), Palm OS 5.4 (Garnet), a fast 200 MHz ARM-based processor, and an internal rechargeable battery (that can be charged via the included AC adapter or via the USB cable connected to your PC).

Weighing just over 3 ounces and about the same size as a deck of playing cards, the Palm Z22 is compact and stylish with a white front and translucent blue backing. Small enough to fit into any purse, backpack or back pocket, it boasts a bright, 160 x 160-pixel color touchscreen display, which provides easy readability of names, addresses, and appointments. You can even color-code appointments for improved organization, and view and carry pictures of friends and family wherever you go.

Operating System and Software
The installed Palm OS 5.4 uses the intuitive and easy-to-learn Graffiti 2 writing software to input data into the handheld (as well as an on-screen keyboard). Windows users can synchronize their calendar, contacts, tasks, and notes with Microsoft Outlook. The Palm OS features the following organizer applications:

  • Contacts: Lets you store several addresses for each contact, and with new fields for more phone numbers, multiple e-mail addresses, instant messenger IDs, and Web sites.
  • Calendar: Use the new Agenda view to see upcoming calendar events, tasks due, and important e-mail, and color-code your events to provide an easy way to reference your calendar in the Agenda, Day, Week, and Month views. Take more notes, or synchronize more details from your desktop, in the larger Memos and Notes fields.
  • Tasks: Use tasks with alarms and repeating tasks to set reminders for important commients.
It also includes AddIt, a program that includes a variety of applications such as CheckSplit, Chess, Carb Counter and Solitaire. The bonus software CD-ROM has an eBook reader with three books and a dictionary, the powerOne Calculator (perfect for basic and advanced mathematics), and SplashShopper (a helpful shopping list application).

Compatibility
The Palm Z22 is compatible with PCs running Windows Windows 2000 (SP4) and XP (Outlook synchronization requires MS Outlook 2000, 2002, or 2003; sold separately), and with Macs running Mac OS 10.2.8 to 10.4.

What's in the Box
Palm Z22 handheld, USB sync cable, power adapter, 3-step setup poster, Graffiti 2 sticker, Software Install CD-ROM with Palm Desktop, Tutorial, Getting Started Guide, User Guide, and bonus software.

5 out of 5 stars nice organizer   July 3, 2008
This thing is great if you have alot of appt. (like Dr.s for your kids) or going grocery shopping. I like the fact that you can store your grocery list, Dr.s Appt., and even contact numbers all on this little handheld. So you dont lose or forget anything.


1 out of 5 stars Major problems attemptine to use the E book reader   July 2, 2008
I bought it to be able to read E books but so far have been unable to nake it work. Nowhere is there any place that even list the E bookreader on it althought it show up on my computer, saying it will be installed at the next hot synk. Most of the space is a bunch of worthless games, with no way to delete them. It has proved to be as useful asa cheat note pad and a cheap calulator. JUNK!!


5 out of 5 stars when it works!   July 2, 2008
Third times the charm. Returned first two of this item because they died! Just plain died. Of course, after I entered all my information.
So far, this third unit is working like a charm. Simple to use, limited expandability and software but enough for my needs. Only thing which would make this ideal...a spell checker!




1 out of 5 stars total waste   July 1, 2008
Bought this for my husband after first calling Palm to see if it worked with Vista. I was assured it would but to download from site rather than the cd. Well, many hours and even more frustrations later, we got it to work (although not all features ever totally worked.) But then it started experiencing power-on failures. If you like dealing with hard resets and rentering all your information again, this is the unit for you!! Except, now it won't come on at all. Palm offers no help and in looking at some of the handheld message boards it's clear that ours are a common and unresolvable problems. That alone is reason not to buy a z22. The fact that more than a year after the release of Vista Palm has still not adapted their software to be fully functional is another.


4 out of 5 stars Palm Z22   July 1, 2008
I bought a replacement for my first Z22 which unexpectedly died after a couple of years of use. Since Palm's repair cost was twice the price of a new unit and since their warranty is only 3 months I wanted to pay as little as possible for the replacement. The factory rebuilt unit is a good solution at about 2/3 the cost of a new unit. I'm happy with that. Amazon is an excellant source for cost effective deals.
