PDA Reviews

I have the fuji 40i digital camera with mp3 player built in and movie camera with sound feature also. What a super camera, so small. But I found after loading my mp3's and taking my movies, I had no memory left for pics. (fuji comes with a 16meg card) So I read the reviews on Amazon and noticed people said the Viking cards worked on the fuji cameras. (fuji needs a special ID memory smartcard for audio) So I purchased my Viking 64 meg smartcard from Amazon and I'm thrilled. According to what I have read , this is the maximum card you can use with this camera. Everything works. I can now take 51 pics in the 2400x1800 mode while holding my favorite mp3's and movie in the camera. Life is beautiful! Super price (can you believe the drop in smart card pricing?) Thank you ,Amazon and Viking!

I bought the Viking 64 MB Smart Media card to add more data storage to my Olympus C-3020 digital camera. The Viking card worked perfectly without any format or setup. The price is much lower than other cards of similar size without any trade-off in performance.The extra memory this card provides allows for 82 pictures at the default setting in the Olympus Camera.If you have been trying to budget you shots with the small card that comes with the Olympus camera, I highly recomend this upgrade.It allows for more picture-taking fun without having to worry about running out of memory. ...

I needed a bigger card for my FujiFilm 2600z camera, which I also got off amazon.com almost two years ago. It came with a 16mb card but I needed something bigger, especially with my wedding coming up.

I was looking at the 128mb Memorex SmartMedia Card, but I discovered my camera was not on Memorex's compatibility list. My next choice was the 64mb card from Viking. I was a little skeptical at first because I had never heard of them before. However, after reading some great reviews from other amazon.com shoppers I decided to give it a shot (especially because it was priced lower then most of the others).

I could not be happier! First off I went from only being able to hold 20 photos (at max quality), to around 82! I have been using the card for months, taking photos, deleting them, transferring them to my PC, and so far it has been working great. The card also came with a plastic protective case, which is now where my 16mb card resides.

If I ever decide to go with the larger 128mb card, or if I get a new camera, I will definitely consider another Viking memory card, and would recommend their product to any of my friends.

Blue Mist is a nice color for the new palm, but the only setback is the price. Only a few would want to buy each cover individually, just to costomize their m100. Palm should sell them as a set for $10.00 more.

At least, thats what I think.

i like the new palm, it is a good device with a handsome, contemporary design that appeals to the younger and techno-illeterate buying market. Today, people have money to throw away, and this is something to throw away into.

Ruby Pearl is a nice color for the new palm, but the only setback is the price. Only a few would want to buy each cover individually, just to costomize their m100. Palm should sell them as a set for $10.00 more.

I got a whole set of these because the original one that my Palm came with was getting kind of boring. I like being able to change it whenever I like. The first couple of times, I had trouble getting the cover off, but once I got the hang of it, it was easy.

This full-sized keyboard folds out from a rectangle roughly the size of your iPAQ. It has a function key which provides added convenience, such an "OK" key that simulates tapping the "OK" button on the screen with your stylus.

The board was advertised to support the newer 3800 series iPAQ on the vendors site. I missed the fine print that explained that you had to call in to get a converter piece from Targus. That put me out a little bit. The converter did have an input for the power cord which the keyboard was lacking. So with the converter you can charge your iPAQ while you type on the keyboard.

The back-stand metal frame that supports the weight of the iPAQ while it is inserted onto the keyboard is flimsy feeling. It becomes even more noticeably awkward feeling when one of the expansions packs, like the CF expansion pack, is attached to the iPAQ. Definitely, this is part of the keyboard needs to go back to the drawing board. I also noticed that the keyboard tends to slightly bounce up and down while typing on some surfaces.

I really like the way this keyboard folds together and apart. I think Targus is a top-notch company. It's definately better than no external keyboard, but I would check out Compaq's new portable iPAQ keyboard before buying this one.

As a heavy user of my Palm V (both for regular data entry and for word processing, via Documents To Go 4.0), I was anxious to acquire a Targus Stowaway Portable Keyboard for my new Clie 760c.

After installing and syncing the necessary (included) software, which took about two minutes (tops!), the keyboard worked great -- just as it did for my Palm.

I now use it to input data wherever words are required; such as in my address book, calendar, memo, and Task List (using Franklin's Dayplanner software, version 7.3). I can also print (any of the above) from my Clie (just as I did on my Palm) to almost any IR (infrared) capable printer using Docs To Print (available from ISComplete.com).

I take the keyboard to meetings (where everyone is blown away by the unit's small size when folded -- and full-size keyboard when unfolded); and when I use my phone or computer to check voice mail or e-mail, respectively (to more quickly enter notes or items upon which to follow-up).

Other's scoff at the idea of using a PDA for word processing. With the Clie's high-resolution color screen -- and with Targus' full-size fold-out keyboard -- I'm the one getting the last laugh when I arrive at meetings empty-handed (and without a laptop), with both my Clie and Targus keyboard in my pockets -- and no pieces of paper to transcribe or file afterwards.

The only time I need paper is when my Clie is unavailable -- while syncing!

The Clie is great! But the Targus Stowaway Portable Keyboard makes it even better!

I've had this keyboard for over 2.5 years now and it still works great. I used it to take notes on my Ipaq all through law school. It is compact enough to slip into a small pocket in my backpack. It sets up and docks in no time.

The best feature is the keystroke action. The keyboard is full-size and types beautifully. I would prefer it to most laptops I have typed on.

Having hotkeys programmed and programmable to launch individual programs is nice. The only improvement I would like to see would be support for MS Word type hotkeys such as Ctrl-U for underline and Ctrl-I for italics. Cut, Copy, and Paste (Ctrl-x,c,v) hotkeys do work, however.
