Hagiwara 16MB Flash Module
Tuesday February 27, 2001 - 11:21 AM EST - By Scott Hanselman

Conclusion

The Hagiwara 16 Meg Flash Module works like a charm. You can buy it from PalmGear for US$139.00. The Hagiwara 8 Meg Module is $75, so you get twice the memory for 2x-$10. It may be a bit steep for the casual user, but for the power- or corporate-user it's a sure winner. Considering that the Handspring 8 Meg Module is $80, then $139 for 16 Megs is a good deal. You can keep pretty much anything on it - readonly databases, games, images and large applications. You can use JackBack (look for a review soon) from Brayder Technologies to back up your entire Visor to the Hagiwara Module, and STILL have 8 Megs free! I could see myself using this as my "leave it in all the time" Module. If you are cramped for memory definitely check out the Hagiwara 16 Meg Flash, it's a winner. Let's hope for a 32 Meg Module soon! More memory!!!
