The Palm Zire was the third Palm OS PDA that Palm put out. It's an electronic replacement for the bulky pencil-and-paper DayTimer, DayRunner and Franklin address book/date books that self-important people lugged around during the 1980s and 1990s. It's got some cool features and functions that are quite useful. However, it is a creature of the technology of the early 2000s. It doesn't have a cell phone built in. It doesn't connect to the Internet directly. It doesn't show pictures or images. Heck, it doesn't even have a backlight, which is its main drawback in my book. It is compact and does many basic jobs. Those basic functions may be enough for many people. I didn't buy one back in 2002-2003 because I didn't want to spend over $200 for a gadget I really didn't need at the time. But in Nov. 2010, I bought this used Zire 21 for a bit over $17 including postage. There is a website that is still selling new Zires for $183!! As an IT guy, I'm expected to know about all the gadgets on the market. I finally got around to having a good look at this early Palm PDA. Palm still provides the basic software for the operating system, Palm OS v5.2.1 and Hot Sync software. There are still plenty of Palm OS apps available that run on the Zire 21. But the state of the art has moved on. Later Palm OS apps use color or higher resolution than the Zire can't supply. If you want a Palm OS PDA and don't need all the latest bells and whistles, the Zire 21 might do the job for you. And if you keep your eye on eBay, you should be able to find one under $50.Read full review
Commissioning enginers do carry tool boxes in both hands. You don't concern about tools to take when climbing on the machines or trying to reach some equipment in the narrow space. To open junction box, to fix wire you don't need many. Gerber multi plier tool is sufficient. You have cross screw driver, two flat screw drivers, pliers with cutter - all in one. Regular knife blade, sharp serrated blade, and even file at your service. Reliable and durable. You have convenient can and bottle openers. 3" and 7cm rulers on the handles will help you in case. Very compact when folded, Gerber multi tool is effective at work. Assembled with bolts, tool can be repaired to remain your favorite for long service.
I like Palm Zier. It is easy to use and it helps to get everything, schedule, to do and contacts, better organized. I specially like the note function, which take the hand-writing, a great way taking a quick note.
It was not functioning right. Some vital accessories missing. Item was finally returned.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
what i like is that no problem using any mini usb to big usb cable also there is some programs on zdnet that are free if a person buys another model that has the disk it will work with the zire 150 so you can get your Emails onto the palm zire 150 so all you have to do is update the hotsnyc off the web site and also when i recived my zire 150 i had to use the ac adapter to charge it the usb port could not find it so could no install the driver so it must have a charge on the palm to install the driver and start charging off the usb port
