Organizer Reviews

I got the Freedio printer after seeing it listed in the accessories catalog of my new E-115. After installing all the software, I couldn't get it to work and contacted Casio support. They informed me that it doesn't work with Pocket PC devices, because there is no task bar to activate the print routing from.

Greetings! Unfortunately I have to disagree with Neil - the FZ-500P does NOT work with the E-115. I just received it and the manual clearly states that it does only support models up to the E-105. Casio's customer support center confirms that. But to all the pre-E-115 owners: This device is sooo cool :) Just buy holding it in my hands I can tell that I would LOVE it (if it would work with my Cassiopeia). That's why I give it 3 stars (kinda to stay neutral).

Other than that: Don't Panic! (42)

When I got my E-115, I bought the portable handheld printer at the same time. It works wonders. With small companies you can print out receipt. You can make business cards on the go. Hand someone a really great looking note which the will never lose. Really it work with any windows CE PDA that has a IrDA infrared port. With 64 different shades of grey and 400 dpi this isn't one of those black and grey printers. The one problem I had was power, it chew up batteries, like a cat and mouse, it's best to buy those rechargeable batteries right away. Just think, if you ever run out of paper the Freedio stores the print command in it's memory and prints it later when you have enough paper. It makes a great partnership with the FZ-700S scanner, once a document is scanned it send it via the IrDA port and prints the document. This is a great buy.

Summary: Buy this thing to protect your investment, but realize that it makes your jornada less portable

More info: I dropped my first jornada 720 and the case cracked. Fixing it cost hundreds of dollars, so when I got a new jornada 720, I definitely wanted to protect it!

Now that I have the case, I feel like the jornada is protected, but...it's really bulky!

The jornada, by itself, is about an inch tall. The case is twice as tall as that! This makes it really hard to put into my front pants pocket or even inside coat pockets!

So, the portability of the jornada is hurt (which is one of the nice things about the jornada in the first place...)

If you're wondering why it's so bulky, it's because the case has an extra flap which is designed for holding credit cards and stuff. You better have a lot of credit cards, because this thing holds seven of them!

I find this extra flap to be unnecessary. I wish hp got rid of it and just made the case as slim as possible (while still providing padding to protect the jornada).

Also, there isn't a flap for connecting the sync cable - that's a bit annoying.

But it does look stylish.

And ultimately, I don't want to pay a few hundred bucks again if I drop the thing (which I will).

I agree with Mr. Howard W. Rhee from Arlington. The case is nice but it is bulky due to the extra flap in the case. I wish that H. Packard will remanufacture this case without the extra flap in order to make the HP-720 portability useful.

If You Have Bought Or Going To Buy A Jornada Why Not Protect Your Jornada? This Case Offers Protection And Additional Storage Room For Memos, Notes, Papers, And Pens.

I decided to buy this item because the online manual said it can store credit cards etc. so that I could replace my wallet. I just got the item and there is no inside pocket except two tiny ones for storing SD cards. The bottom of the case is open so that there is no way to store credit cards unless you want to lose them... At the minimum, it is right size for iPAQ 4155, though.

I decided to buy this case because it was made by HP. You would figure who would know better than the manufacturer itself on how to make a case for it's own products. This case fits my IPAQ 1935 (1900 series) snugly and perfectly. It's very secure and I don't worry about the Ipaq ever falling out. It also leaves space open at tops to plug in earphones while the case is closed. The leather is sturdy and soft - looks very elegant and professional. However unless you are buying form over function, my biggest complaint is that I constantly have to remove the IPAQ from the case to use it. The trifold does not allow you to access the IPAQ while it is within the case, you have to take it out to use it which is annoying because what do you do with the case when you are holding the IPAQ?

Ok, so the specs for this case are wrong. There's no place to put a credit card. Still, it's a good, slim case. For people on the move, who don't need to carry anything more than a few SD cards for their PDA, this is probably the best case you can buy.

I especially like the attached metal belt clip. Once you put it on, it's not going anywhere. I can't handle those flimsy detachable belt clips that most cases have... they don't clip on as securely, and break off too easily.

I tried these out today - they are horrible! First of all, they are a pain to put on. I went through 3 of the 12 just to get one on "correctly." Then, after I got in on, my Visor screen was converted into a bubble farm. There were bubbles everywhere that were impossible to smooth out. This product is a hollow chocolate bunny - it looks tasty, but then you find out it's empty. Take my advice - either take great care of your screen in the first place, or find a better product than this.

The screen of my Handspring Neo was getting small scratches on the face after two years of use so I decided to spring and buy a pack of these screen protectors. The result is that my screen is protected, but there are some things about the protectors I don't like.

Putting them on your system is fairly easy, as long as you follow the directions. I messed up the first one I put on by putting my fingers on the side that was going to be face down on the PDA. So after starting over, the protector went on smoothly. I didn't have any problems with bubbles on the screen like the other reviewers had. I had one or two, but they were easily taken care of with the included smoother.

I'm not saying that it is perfect. I don't like the way the stylus moves over the screen now. It has almost a sticky quality when you are writing on it. It's not too bad, but it is annoying to deal with. The other problem is that the protector doesn't cover the entire screen. It leaves a small gap around the edge, about 1-2 mm. On my Handspring this is when dust and other assorted debris collect.

If you are worried about your screen getting damaged, then these are a good buy. Just be forewarned, they aren't perfect, but they do get the job done.

I've been using these screen protectors for 3 years now and they are wonderful. After damaging my first Palm's screen with the stylus (yes the screen will scratch after awhile) I found this product and tried it out. It does require some patience to put on correctly, but if you follow instructions and use the enclosed squeegee-card (or a credit card) it will go on smoothly and without bubbles. I actually prefer the feel of writing on the protector then writing on the screen itself. I usually get 3-6 months out of my protector before I replace.

This would be a nifty little contraption if it wasn't for the fact that you can't change the top -- my primary impetus for buying it.

I have a Handspring Visor and lost my stylus. I didn't want to pay for shipping on a new stylus 3-pack from Handspring, so I went to Best Buy and purchased this instead. Not only can you not change the top so that it fits in the Visor properly, but now the entire headpiece falls out constantly so that the bottom part of the stylus gets stuck in the stylus-holder. Oh, and did I mention that the light function only works part of the time?

Not worth your time or effort.

It works and does what its supposed to But,I CAN'T get the top off to change the size for different pda's Help

For years, I've seen combination pens with lights, but this lighted stylus is just the ticket for using your PDA in the dark, especially on Palm models with an unlit Graffiti panel.

The Light Stylus comes with four interchangeable tops to fit a wide variety of PalmOS PDAs (the one I bought doesn't claim to fit PocketPC models.) One of them was a near-perfect match for my Palm i705 stylus, and in fact fit even better than the factory stylus in that it isn't as tight a fit. I did have some difficulty switching the top - there are no instructions - but a firm pull does the trick. There's even a reset pin under the top!

The light is yellow and reasonably bright - good enough for use in the dark, though it's no flashlight. As a general-use stylus, it works well - the translucent plastic tip has a good writing feel. The only issue I have, and this is minor, is that sometimes you have to play with the rotation of the top to get the light to stay on, or off. Once you find the right position, though, it stays.

Inexpensive enough to be an impulse-buy (as it was for me), the Saitek Light Stylus is a great idea at a great price. I recommend it to all Palm PDA users.

This PDA Case is attractive and professional; however, space is limited. My PDA was too big at 3.25 x 5 x .75 inches. The case features space for only one pen. It offers an extra stylus pen, but I could not remove it from its holder. Each cardholder houses 2-3 cards. Checkbook doesn't fit well. Seems better suited to PalmPilot-sized PDAs, if PDAs fit well in it at all.

Very nice case, good quality construction, looks good. Not large enough to carry a checkbook and handspring at the same time. Probably works best with small pda like Palm V. Security rail feature for use with the Palm V looks really neat, it looks like a stylus sewn into the case and you can slide into the PDA stylus slot so you don't have to use velcro to secure into case.

This is about the best case I've come across. It looks professional, holds your pda very securely (as well as extras) but is still slim enough to fit in a decent sized pocketbook or briefcase. You can't fit everything, though. Some credit cards, cash, a notepad perhaps - it certainly can't hold a checkbook as well as a pda.

A brief aside, one reviewer mentioned that the case comes with a stylus, but he/she couldn't remove it. That's actually the mechanism to secure a Palm V rather than using the velcro.

On the whole, this is a very good case and well worth the money.

The HandCam is not one of them. The camera felt cheap when I first got it, then when I rotated the lens, it clicked at one point as if it were broken. I shot some still photos & they were ok & transferred properly but when I shot a small 15 sec video & tried to transfer it to my desk, I got a message on my palm that "Video was not supported" !!!!!!! I contacted Targus & was told that they could not repair or replace the item as it was discontinued but I could have any other items from their current catalog. I told them that I wanted a camera only, that's why I bought a camera. I have yet to solve this problem but I wouldn't buy another one. Stick with the Eyemodule2. It works flawlessly. I'm sorry I got rid of mine : ( Anyone want to trade????? ; )

Good pictures...easy to use. Hard to sync. I had to get a patch from Targus via e-mail inorder to hotsync my photos into my desktop. The sad news is that Targus no longer makes the hamcam. It is discontinued and there is no more mention of it on the Targus web site.

For the price, this is a fairly good digital camera. It also has the ability to be a mini-movie maker.

One hint, be sure you DON'T plug the USB cable into your computer until AFTER you install the software!

When the original stylus that came with my Palm m515 started to slip out of its storage slot, I decided I needed a replacement. I ordered several different brands to find the stylus that suited me best. Of the four different m500 series replacement styli that I tried, I was least satisfied the Belkin brand. The stylus has a good weight, similar to the original. But the main problem with this stylus is in its size. The small plastic bumps on the end that allow the stylus to snap into place in the storage slot are too large. It feels as if you have to force it into place, so much so that I was actually worried it would cause damage. The stylus is also a bit too long, so that when you do get it into the storage slot, it sticks up farther than it should. Overall, I would not recommend this product for use with the Palm m500 series handhelds.

I kept track of the original stylus for my M500 so long that no one in the local stores stocked them, so I tried Amazon, which offers the usual overwhelming number of choices. The Belkin Product is essentially an exact replacement except the shaft is black instead of brushed metal. The fit is very good; it doesn't slip out on its own, and doesn't fight back when you need to remove it. There is a slight protrusion above the surface of the M500 when the stylus is fully inserted, but since the top of the stylus is nicely rounded it has a natural appearance. If you prefer the weight and feel of a metal stylus, like the original, this is the next best thing. Also, you now get 4 instead of 3 styli.

As the titel says, this appears to be exactly the same charger that comes with the cradle. The reason for only one star is, like the cradle adapter, the end where it plugs into the iPAC is two pieces. The end of the cord is terminated with the round plug that will plug into the Cradle. That then plugs into an adapter which actually plugs into the bottom of the iPAC. What this does when all hooked up is produce this huge "thing" attached to the bottom of the iPAC.

I bought the AC Adaptor so I can read in bed at night, using Microsoft Reader, without running the battery down. Having this huge charger attachment sticking out the bottom of the iPAC is a real bother and agrivation, as it alters the "feel" of the iPAC and just generally makes me mad. I only use it when I have to, when the battery goes too far down from reading a particularly long time and I want to keep reading. Otherwise, it just collects dust. On top of it all, it isn't necessary and you can save yourself some money, as one can just use the AC adaptor for the Cradle as it is identical in every way to this item.

There's nothing wrong with this adapter. Period. (Except the packaging is a little hard to open- well, maybe really hard).
The picture shown in the description is not what this looks like- the adapter to plug it in directly to the handheld can come off if you want to use a cradle or keyboard to charge your handheld. I bought an Ipaq 5455 and it's the same adapter that came with it. Very handy to have for any PocketPC owner.

I had searched and searched for the right Palm case and thought I'd found it in the Dooney & Bourke Bayou Palm V Case. I was looking for something that looked good, protected my product but didn't add a whole lot to the size. Well, 2 out of 3 ain't bad...

It may have been the particular case I had was defective, but my Palm kept sliding out of the case. I had this product for like 2 weeks and my Palm fell out 4 or 5 times. Fortunately, it happened when I was pulling my Palm out of my jacket, thus the unit fell back into coat pocket and the Palm was not damaged. I put the unit back in time and time again, trying to solve this dilemma, but could not do it. After 2 weeks, I reazlied I could not use the Dooney & Bourke Case without the risk of damaging my Palm, so I returned it.

Again, it looks great and offers suitable protection for the Palm (especially the screen). My experience may have been an isolated one, but be careful: make sure the case holds the product!

I love this leather case when I first time saw it! But my palm is the Palm IIIc... Please... [Dooney & Bourke Bayou], if someday you have design for the Palm IIIc, please let me know!
