State of the Art

by   RichBoston ,  Apr 8, 2001
Pros: Expansion Slot, Reasonably Priced Color, Updated Palm OS, New Apps
Cons: Needs An Enhanced, Brighter Color Screen Without Sacrificing Battery Life
The Bottom Line: State of the art. The only "fault" I can really find is the brightness of the screen and I suspect that was a tradeoff for longer battery life.
Review: Through retail sources I’ve had the opportunity to use the new Palm m500 and m505 the past couple of weeks in advance of general distribution. The m505 is scheduled for retail sale starting in May while the Palm m500 is on a slightly earlier schedule on...

Palm m505 - the best yet...

by   msmasitti ,  Aug 23, 2001
Pros: Slim/Lightweight, Color Screen, Rechargeable, USB, Palm OS 4, Expansion
Cons: Slight dim screen, no hardware for SD/MMC clot
The Bottom Line: The m505 is the perfect PDA, with a good color screen and slim, good looking design, I highly recommend it!
Review: The Palm m505 is what I believe to be the best, or one of the best, Palm OS devices. The m505 has a modern, redefined Vx look, and while keeping it in a tiny package, have added an extra expansion slot as well as a color screen! Many more minor and major...

Organize Me Baby!

by   kaysi ,  Aug 13, 2001
Pros: USB Cradle, Color Screen, Expansion Slots, Sleek and Small.
Cons: Price of $449.
The Bottom Line: Great choice in an ever-expanding market.
Review: I finally broke down and bought a Palm after much debate (with myself) about whether I really needed one. I have a desktop AND a laptop already after all. Now that I’ve done it, I think, “Who cares if I really need it or not… I love having it and it...

Palm M505--Color My World, This Thing is Great

by   glacier ,  Aug 28, 2001
Pros: Great form factor, good expansion and color, ergonomic.
Cons: No brightness control, minor difficulty with expansion card, delicate hotsync connection.
The Bottom Line: The best PDA in the color 'space' today, for reasons I specify in this review.
Review: My days using a Handspring Visor Deluxe are coming to an end, thanks to my testing of this precious PDA.

I've got to say up front that this PDA is about as good as it gets in the Palm OS flavors. And although I do have some minor concerns...

Too much power for the palm of your hand!

by   selfhi5 ,  Jul 23, 2001
Pros: Expandable, Internet-Capable in Brilliant Color
Cons: None!
The Bottom Line: This brand new product from the company that brought Palm Pilots I-V is sure to knock your socks off, and no function was forgotten when creating this masterpiece!
Review: The Palm M505 handheld with rich 65,000 color support is customizable thanks to two expansion features. The standard secure Digital/MultiMediaCard slot and the Palm Universal Connector let you add storage, applications, content, and add-ons, like a...

Give me the 505

by   raven190 ,  Sep 1, 2001
Pros: Size, color abilities, expandable, sleek design.
Cons: Screen could be a little brighter.
The Bottom Line: This is my entry into the PDA world and the m505 has proved its worth.
Review: I'd never used a handheld before I bought the palm m505. (Playing an occasional game on someone else's handheld doesn't count.) So this review may seem basic to more experienced users. If you're new to PDAs like I am, I've tried to include useful...

beautiful piece or portable hardware

by   thehuntman2k ,  Jun 23, 2002
Pros: Great look, easy to carry around, lovely color
Cons: Doesn't come with computer compatible programs like word or excel.
The Bottom Line: The Palm m505 is very easy to use and has great programs. You should Definitely have one for both games or business.
Review: The Palm m505 is an awesome add-on to the Palm family. I own one and I love it. The colors are rich and the layout makes it easy to find everything you need. Files can be transferred from this to your computer and vice versa which makes planning...

Palm finally hits the mark!

by   swsteckly ,  Sep 20, 2001
Pros: Small, Thin form factor, Long-Life Rechargable Battery, Mac Support, FAST USB Connection, Brilliant Color Screen
Cons: Slightly Dim Screen, Not very many SD/MMC Cards currently available
The Bottom Line: The Palm m505 is a near-perfect choice for anyone seeking a high-quality, top-end unit.
Review: The Palm m505 is Palm's stab at the high-end handheld market. I was amazed at the high quality of the design, and many 'optional' extras, such as a leather cover, includes in the box. Another plus for me was out-of-the-box Mac support, because I use the...

Great Toy for Adults

by   chandasz ,  Nov 19, 2002
Pros: Expandability. Color. Price
Cons: Bit hard to read in bright light
The Bottom Line: The price is right for the 505. It's ease of expandability puts it in the same boat as the 515
Review: Let's face it. Most of us use our PDAs as GameBoy for adults. I keep my appointments and contacts but also love to play games and read content from avantgo. I upgraded from an m100 to this about a year ago and I'm still very happy with it. I carry it...

Perfect PDA that's not a hassle to carry with you everywhere.

by   diehart ,  Dec 15, 2001
Pros: Small and Solid. Vibrating Alarm. Very Long Battery Life.
Cons: Screen may be Dim in a few situations.
The Bottom Line: This is the only truly practical color PDA.
Review: The most important advantage for the M505 is its very compact and solid design. It's small and sturdy enough to keep with you at all times without being obtrusive or worried about damaging it. The screen is always bright enough when ambient light is...
