PDA Reviews

Socket designed this SDIO Low Power WLAN Card to be Battery Friendly, which means using this card you will get the maximum possible battery life from your Pocket PC.

Socket's WLAN Utility enables me, as a Network Admin, to monitor wireless network performance, view IP address data, and configure advanced settings. Since most of my employees use Pocket PC 2002, I can use Socket's utility to create, save, and connect to separate WLAN profiles, giving me the flexibility to work with each employee's needs. Employees using Pocket PC 2003 has the advantage of using Microsoft's Zero Configuration utility. My people loves the fact that when their Pocket PC is connected to a wireless LAN, the WLAN card is in idle (listening) mode about 90% of the time, with occasional short bursts of data being transmitted/received. I would strongly recommend this card to anyone working on the go, away from office or school.

This SDIO Wireless LAN Card's 40/64-bit and 128-bit Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) security protects data in transit by adding encryption with minimal impact on performance.

Socket's Low Power SDIO Wireless LAN Card is industry's first SDIO card for WLAN. It is about 54mm long and weighs less than 6g. Being compatible with 802.11b means it interoperates with 802.11b Wi-Fi approved WLAN products from 3COM, Cisco, Aironet, Intel, Breezecom, Lucent, Xircom, Linksys, D-Link, and others including Motorola, which I am using right now. I am able to wireless ActiveSync without any problems. Its Power Save Mode minimizes power usage while maximizing data throughput when I need it the most. As I am always on the go, this card's small external antenna reduces the chance of damage. I highly recommend it for any PDA owners using Pocket PC 2002 or Pocket PC 2003 with a supported SDIO slot.

I looked at several different cases for the Palm VII. This case is well constructed and holds everything secure. The zipper keeps things from falling out. Very satisfied with this item. Would recommend purchase of this item.

Bought it for the Palm VIIx and it fits great with room to spare. The construction is very sturdy, genuine leather, solid zipper. The elastic strap on the inside can be used to hold memory cards, but not applicable with the Palm VIIx. To attach your Palm, use the provided self-adhesive velcro pads. The pads easily come off later (adhesive does not stick to the Palm... I could take them off and on several times). The antenna is able to extend easily. The pen holder holds the stylus firmly in place. The pockets on the left easily hold credit cards, business cards, etc. Bigger pockets hold money, etc. I'm very pleased. The picture Amazon provided was exactly what I received.

I just received my Tech Media Starter Kit and I love it. After having read a number of reviews from people who were concerned about using the velcro tab on the back of their Palm Pilot I was a little reluctant to buy one that included the velcro feature. However I found that my Palm IIIc fits in the leather case perfectly and I don't need to use the velcro tab at all. The leather case is very nice and is compact enough to easily fit in a purse or briefcase. The added accessories are great and the case is just large enough to store a spare cleaning wipe and screen shield. The kit is well worth the price.

This is the best PDA starter kit for any PDA on the market today. Unlike the Fellowes and Companion Link kits, this kit has accesories that you can use. The leather case is a very good quality. It holds all my PDA's. The screen protectors are probably the best I've ever used...excellent clarity, easy to apply, and very good handwriting recognition. It also comes with these combination wet dry cleaners that do a great job of cleaning the screen and the body of the PDA. One of the accesories I like the most is the SmartStylus Pen. It's a stylus on one side and a felt tip based alcohol cleaner on the other. Very good for fast cleaning of the screen and it's easy to carrying around with you. Now, what would you rather use something that looks like a fake fingernail or this accesory? The Fellowes and Companion Link products have these plastic fingertip stylus's that are ridiculous. Then finally the kit also comes with this MicroProtector Cloth that is very good at getting smudges and fingerprints off the screen. But the best thing about this kit is its price...only [price]!

Great job Tech Media!...Keep coming out with quality products at a reasonable price!

I've never heard of Viking before but decided to try it. Setting up on my ancient Toshiba 2130 (it's a 486dx75) was so fast and effortless. It didn't come with instructions, but none were needed - i just slid the card in and Windows did the rest.

The 64MB CF card can hold about 65 pics in normal mode (I use a Nikon CoolPix 800) so that should be more than enough for a weekend trip. Using the laptop adapter should provide for limitless photos.

I'll look for Viking products from now on. And to think they just sat in coffee shops singing about Spam.

The search for aproppiate memory devices can prove frustratingly complicated on compatibility aspects, not to mention price, however Viking Components has answered my prayers time and again. This flash card, like other products from Viking Co i ve purchased, has performed excellently on a digital camera and laptop computer, (with the aid of the adapter). This combo is far easier to use than than the uncomfortable plugging and unplugging of slow USB cables, since it becomes, in essence, another drive in your laptop. Overall this has expanded my phototaking possibilities and made my life much easier transferring them.

The SD card worked great until my Boston Terrior decided to find it on the floor and used it for a chew toy. It is now a mangled mess.

This is the first expansion card I've purchased for my
Palm. Its everything I've anticipated. Its easy to insert,
the memory access it fast.

The price for the 64MB cards have come down alot. I've
tried to do research on the different brands of SD cards.
I found more positive comments about Viking cards rather than
the SanDisk card. I'm sure SanDisk work fine, but I've not
read as many positive things about it.

All things being equal. The Viking was a few dollars cheaper,
and IMHO is a visually better looking SD card.

This is a fantastic game. i am an video game vetren, and this geame may very well be the greatest RTS of all time. And now, u are no longer limited by the bonds of portability. This a near perfect port of the PC classic, and it rocks. Every unit is displayed with crisp graphics. The booming soundtrack kepps the tempo up. THis game never ends because of limitlesss senarious. U can download a demo to try at www.handago.com. Buy this masterpiece and have fun!!!

This item worked very very well, and I would recommend it to anybody. Now I can finally have the fast internet on my pocket pc.

Bought this primarily so that I could read eBooks while floating in the pool during the summer. It is great! No worry about water splashes, and will float. Can wear around neck to reduce chance of dropping. Also use for grocery shopping, and is also just great protection from the elements in general. Easy to tap thru plastic cover.

This case is very high quality. It is just the same as all the other flip cases out there except much cheaper. Very good deal.

Overall, this is a great case! Good quality, and priced well below many leather cases I found. I highly recommend, even if you had to pay full manufacturer suggested retail price.

Pros: Great low price, and for LEATHER! Not bulky. Leather case has protected my CLIE from breakage even when dropped on a corner, I believe because of the structure of the leather case. You can leave CLIE PEG-T615C in the case when using a CABLE to recharge or synch (rather than the cradle).

Cons: When playing games or using software in which you use your fingers to press any of the 4 slim buttons just below the writing surface, you may need to remove CLIE from case because the leather opening for the screen and buttons covers all the way up to the bottom of the buttons, slightly interfering with button accessibility. To recharge or synch a PEG-T615C in the cradle, you must remove from this case (or most other cases, for that matter).
