The Z22 is a nice little Palm OS PDA. It has non-volatile memory which is not true of the other Zire models, and it has a pretty fast ARM CPU. The only downside is the small-ish low resolution screen, but those give it great battery life and a small overall size. Overall it is a very solid device with good battery life. If you need a Palm OS handheld PDA, than it is a good choice.
This was an upgrade from a Zire and it looked to be easier to use and it is. The hotsync to the computer is easy and transfers from the computer back to the Palm are easy as well. The included rubberized case is a plus. The only negative is the font size could be a little larger which would make it easier to read. If you choose the right color combination for the display, this helps a lot. It's small, light weight, portable and simple to use. The battery life is much longer than the Zire as it was always "out of charge" due to poor connections in the charging station. The Palm Z22 uses an USB cable to connect to the computer and for charging. This makes it easy to charge.
Great Product - Well designed Excellent size for easy carrying. Good memory to hold many applications and electonic books Good battery life. Very durable. Withstands dropping and knocking around. Soft reset allows resetting the system without losing memory and applications. Hard Reset allows complete system reset for new user Palm Desktop software maintains complete backup and easily programs a new Z22 with all applications and data if an old one breaks. I'm very pleased and use it often through out the day to study the Bible and redeem the time when I am waiting in line by reading good books on it. Also, there are many excellent applications for it like the Power One Calculator.
If you just want a PDA that fits in you pocket, has long battery life (if the battery is new), and is fast, this is a good one. In buying these used, battery condition is important. Mine is okay. I probably will not ever replace it. The smaller, lower resolution screen is an acceptable comproimise for me, but if your eyes are not as good as mine, you will need to select a larger text size in preferences. The last, and arguably, the best of the drying pre-WEBOS palms. Enjoy while you still can.
Upgraded from an older visor delux. Was worried about the upgrade process, and making sure all data was saved. Older units (Visor included) always seemed to have difficulty/bugs with the SYNC function (the most critical function). Upgrade process was smooth (I made an extra copy of my entire "handspring" directory, just in case). Installed from CD (you SHOULD do this, it will go out on the internet in any case!). It found my existing directory and data, and username. It gave me clear instructions during upgrade/install. New unit has nice bright COLOR screen (yahoo!). It is nice and small and light. It has better functionality than older units. It runs with the latest/greatest Palm Desktop/SYNC (yippee!). The only negatives I can envision... (?) Battery life? And, when it can no longer charge, battery (factory) replacement. I may try it myself, in any case. I bought this for really one reason, to get to latest greatest OS and SYNC funstionality. But what I got was more. More color, more functions, more simple and better designed code, hopefully more bulletproof. I like the "leave on while recharging" feature too. Another negative, it should have shipped with at least a cheap plastic case for protection, if nothing else. Palm, it seems, is finally getting it RIGHT. No more bugs, I'm crossing my fingers and toes. ..best...Jim_carbuyerRead full review
This PDA is so simple to use. I have been using Z22s for 10 years-this is my second one. My only complaint is that you can't add memory, but even that isn't a deal breaker. If I use this as an address book, notebook and a scheduler( I am a visiting nurse and keep track of patients with it) it's all I really need. I don't need a lot of games, which is what I'd add. A couple is enough.
This PDA was in excellent condition and arrived as promised. I would have no problem in dealing with this seller again. Thanks for this PDA. I love it and I use it every day. Can't live without it.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
I really like this Palm Z22. I wish I had bought one a long time ago. It is so efficient compared to my agenda that I have been lugging around for years. I thought that I couldn't find a product without a cell feature (which I didn't want), and was pleasently suprised to find that I could still get something like this. I did my homework and decided that this was the model that I needed. I was right - it is perfect for my needs. I was a bit suprised though, by the price of new, unused models. I supposed they would sell for less, but I guess that demonstrates their popularity or stong 'following'. I'm tempted to buy one as a 'back-up' for the future. So if you're looking for a fairly basic, handheld agenda/date book (with alarm feature!)- you can't go wrong with this Palm z22. Brie
Delivered quickly, excellent condition, as advertised. Happy with this product and a vendor. Bought this as a replacement for my 4 year old Palm Z22. Don't have a fancy phone with all these features - like having my contact and calendar information on a separate device. I am sorry they don't make these anymore new. Glad there's a vendor who repurposes. Mine is working great and looked like new when I received it.
I love this PDA. I bought it as a backup for one that I've had for about 3 years - for when the battery dies and I have to send it away to be fixed. My LIFE is on this PDA so I never want to be without it. Calendar, contacts, memos, etc. I keep both PDAs sync'd with my desktop. My only complaint is that after I sync, I get a message that not all messages were copied. If I sync it again immediately, it's OK. Both of the PDAs have this problem. Other than that, they're fine.
