Handspring Modem
We live in a real-time world, and sometimes you need to get to important information from the Web or an email at all times of the day. With the Handspring Modem (HSM), you can dial in and access any of your important data at any time. The
33.6K HSM is the largest Springboard module to date. It sticks out
just under ½" behind the back of the Visor and ¾" above the
top of the Visor, significantly adding to the dimensions of the Visor. Usability With
a modem Springboard module, the most important things to consider are speed,
size, and battery life because any modem will work with online applications
such as AvantGo or Proxiweb.
The HSM is a 33.6K modem, which while not a top speed modem like the SixPak,
it does have advantage of being available now. I remember
a HotSync with my old Palm III on the 14.4 Palm modem and it taking about
3 minutes, while a HotSync using the HSM took a little under two minutes.
Your time will vary depending on what conduits you synchronize.
