Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Palm Z22 Handheld
Customer Review: Good product, Bad Seller
Summary: 3 Stars
I ordered the Palm Z22 4 days before Christmas and requested they send it in time to receive it by Christmas Eve. I was ecstatic when it arrived two days before Christmas. I was very dissappointed, however, when I opened the package and saw only the Palm Z22. No, directions, no manufacturers box, nothing but the item. The description on Amazon said it was like new and had all the miscellaneous things that it comes with when bought new. My wife was happy when seeing the Palm Z22, but it lost its luster when seeing there were no directions or anything else with it.
The product works fine and my wife likes it. Just wish they would have included what they said they would. I paid $5 less than what it costs brand new.
Customer Review: This handy little handheld does everything you need in style
Summary: 5 Stars
When I reached the point where no paper planner could fit all my tasks, I turned to digital alternatives. As the other reviews have said, the z22 does exactly what you need it to and it does it well. If you're looking for something to make your life easier and more manageable without all the bells and whistles, this is it.
The palm z22 is lightweight and small enough to take everywhere with you. As a journalist, I make lots of contacts and need space to store their phone numbers, e-mails, and info about where I met them, what they have expertise in. The z22 has 8 separate sections to store custom information, and all your data can be entered into the handheld or your computer and synced up easily and rapidly. It's a fast, classy and intuitive alternative to buying a giant paper planner every year, and it makes life so much easier.
As for cases to protect your new-found assistant: Don't get the air case, the metal case, or the flexi case. The air case either opens too easily or not easily enough, the flexi case doesn't protect the palm's screen, and the metal case gets scratched up and opens on the left side (which is awkward for a right-handed or small-handed person). Plus, none of them protect the charger port on the palm. I found a case by Timbuk2 called the 2way that holds my palm PERFECTLY. It's made from ballistic fabric, has room for cards and straps to a backpack or purse strap. It's lightweight and secures with velcro. I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to protect their palm in style without paying a lot or getting a case not made for the z22 that doesn't fit.

Customer Review: Palm Z222 PDA
Summary: 5 Stars
Excellent basic PDA with Palm functionality. Easy set up. Used this to replace a 2 year old HP PDA (bad circuitry) , using Microsoft Outlook and Windows 95SE.Customer Review: Would be overpriced at $25
Summary: 1 Stars
In short, the quality product you get doesn't come close to the price. You're better off getting a used Tungsten for $50 than drop $100 on this. The screen quality reminds me of their first color screen 10 years ago. The stylus is impossible to remove if you don't have nails or a coin handy. The plastic seems chinsy and easily breakable. But I guess since PDA's are going out of style now, there's just not a lot to choose from. Would not recommend this.Customer Review: Z22 review
Summary: 4 Stars
The product itself Z22 is fine. However Palm products are not fully capable of intergrating with computers with Vista. I have spent over 6 hours with Palm technical support and still don't have a resolution for my Palm handheld with certain aspects of the data (specifically the calendar). For this aspect I am dis-satisfied.
