Got a thought? Jot it down directly on the screen in a virtual "sticky note" for quick reminders. Exchange and backup data with desktop computer with a touch of a button. Intuitive is the perfect word to describe how easy m100 is to use. You instinctively know how to get it up and running right out of the box. Palm m100 provides all the room you need for addresses, phone numbers, appointments and to-dos. In addition the m100 features a convenient clock positioned for at-a-glance timekeeping.

Summary: Great organizer! I recommend it!
Comment: It can be used as an address book, an agenda book, notebook, alarm clock... the possibilities are endless. Plus it's lightweight and can fit in a small purse. You won't leave home without it!

Summary: Great & basic while it works!
Comment: I have owned one of these since they came out and now have to buy a new one. For the last couple of years I have been having trouble with it losing my data even if I change the batteries much quicker than 1 minute. Now recently it started just losing the data all together for no reason, after brand new batteries installed, and all the files I want in there... Now calendar info, contact info, and pocket quicken file. We get it all set and then next time I go to use it..probably within a week...the data is all gone byebye...I have to do the setup screen to even do anything with it at first. Now it doesn't even seem to remember I just did the setup screen yesterday!
I liked the device while it worked. But I am disappointed in the extended life of the product. I really don't want to be buying a new one of these every 5 years even if all I need it for is the basic stuff like calendar, addresses, etc. So now I am not sure if I will invest in a new one or good back to the paper method of keeping these records with me in my purse.

Summary: Has Problems But Still Good
Comment: I received the Palm M100 for Christmas of 2000 and it proved very useful until the fall of 2005, when it suddenly began to have the same problem reported by other reviewers: it began draining batteries very quickly and could not hold information while changing batteries (I would have to reload all my backed up data every time I changed batteries.) I am usually on the road so this created a problem, unless I replaced my desktop with a laptop.
To make a long story short, I trashed the old Palm and bought a used one to replace it for fifteen dollars, and when I replaced my PC with an Apple iMac G5 Desktop with 17" M9843LL/A (1.8 GHz PowerPC G5, 512 MB RAM, 160 GB Hard Drive, DVD/CD-RW Drive), the Palm made the transition well, after I added a Keyspan High Speed USB Serial Adapter ( USA-19HS ).
Would I buy another? It depends on price: It has an inherent flaw, but I found a replacement quickly and for a good price. It serves my needs, I can concentrate on my work because don't have to learn to use another device, and it works well. Moreover, my first Palm worked well for nearly five years, which is pretty good for an electronic device that got carted all over the country multiple times.
Last, because the Palm is "outdated", there are many accessories that can now be purchased for pennies on the dollar, such as the PalmOne m100 Series Slim Leather Carrying Case, and colorul faceplates like the PalmOne m100 series Faceplate Cover (Pacific Blue).

Summary: Old but good
Comment: I got this Palm for Christmas 2001 instead of the usual slew of calendars I had received in previous years. Since then it has been reliable and has been a good basic organizer.
Some have complained of battery life problems. While this does seem to drain batteries, I've found that using rechargables is the best option. Turning the backlight on causes a lot of strain as well. This should be synched with the computer whenever possible just in case a data loss does occur. These Palms came with a serial connector dock. USB adapters are available for it, and are mandatory for use with a Mac.

Summary: Yeah, its OK
Comment: This palm is OK because it is not color and after time, the digitizer breaks (the part that makes it so you can use the touch screen feature) If i were you, i would get the M130 - it is color and not as old - it is VERY GOOD for School!
