...* Initial Note * Speaking on behalf of the family, the Palm Tungsten C has just been purchased by my sister. Joanne works in Marketing for a scottish brewery, which means that it is essential for her to be organised, as well as have relatively easy access to applications where she can do her work, and even more importantly something that can be served as a good communication device. This accumulation of needs, required her to purchase something that would allow her to do her work, whilst on the move (she is always travelling). So this wee little handheld device was purchased for exactly this reason, and as I have experienced, serves her well. (-and me well, lol) So, why should you, or should you not buy the PALM Tungsten C, well, I shall explain. *Its features* WiFi ----------------------------------- WiFi for those... Read review

...I have been using the Palm Tungsten C for 6 months with exceptional performance and quality. I will convey to you, in my opinion, what I believe are the most important features of the device. -> Design To look at the Tungsten C is very sleek.

Advantages Great colour screen WiFi, infrared & great application support

Also the fact it runs PalmOS and not Windows makes it run faster than most Pocket PCs and other variants. It comes with a rechargable battery, which chages each time you sit it in the cradle. I've regularly got 7-9 hours out of the battery, although using networking will reduce this down to 3-4hours. The inbuild 64Mb of RAM is also pretty impressive, allowing you download plenty of applications and store lots of files, without the usual need to remove files everytime you want to create something new. As I mentioned the Tungsten C comes with 802.11b networking support, running at 11Mbps. The receiver and transmitter are fantastic and signal strength is comparable to any other wireless device...
