Palm TX
IGN reviews the Palm TX and writes, “Though you may not be able to get out of carrying all of your portable devices, the TX will certainly help you streamline what you need and what you don’t. … The display is one of the biggest selling points for this device, with a resolution of 320 x 480 that is both bright and surprisingly clear, built with multimedia support in mind. … The TX is great little device that has quite a bit of functionality, but considering the $300 price tag, I’m not entirely convinced that it’s worth the money. The Palm Treo 650 costs about the same price, trumping the TX by being a cell phone with about the same amount of features, but a lower resolution screen. If you just need something to help you organize your various documents and appointments, there are many alternatives at the fraction of the price.”
Palm TX Reviews
CNET reviews the Palm TX and writes, “The Palm TX performs quite well, thanks in part to the 312MHz Intel processor. There was only the slightest pause when we switched between applications; it was a noticeable improvement from the sometimes-sluggish performance of the Tungsten E2. Video playback and music playback were clean and smooth, and we were impressed by the sound quality and volume levels of the handheld. As with the most recent batch of Palm PDAs, battery life for the TX was good. In CNET Labs’ tests, where we looped a video clip using Kinoma Video Player and set the screen at 50 percent brightness, the PDA ran out of juice after 4.5 hours. This isn’t bad, but the results did fall behind those of the Tungsten T5 and Tungsten E2. Playing music on a repeated loop, the Palm TX lasted a longer 10 hours.” Link.
