User Opinions: Visor Deluxe


AnonymousExcellent Device

Thumbs Up

Springboards are a bit pricey however the Visor Deluxe shines on its own.

DaveThe review is wrong about the reset button

Thumbs Up

The stylus actually has a screwdriver that unscrews on the top part of the stylus and the bottom part screws off and is a reset button pusher.

Randy N.Loved my Visor Deluxe for 6 months.

Thumbs Up

After years of fooling around with cheap electronic address books, the Visor Deluxe has been one of the recent investments I'm most happy with. The only problem I've had (with hot-synching) was fixed after a quick vist to Handspring's Customer Service site. A great combination of tool and toy.

I like my Ice Deluxe. Now if the color version was just the same price...well someday soon they will ALL be color and wireless, right? Good price point for this. Do it!

soundmanAll but the cover

Thumbs Up

I love everything but the cover. Why couldn't Handspring make a hinged cover?

personVery good service, i dont know what you guys are talking about...

Thumbs Up

Everyone says that the service was horrilbe and the hold was long yada yada yada. I called them the wait was maybe 40 seconds if not less, and the lady was nice enough to helo me with everything i needed, w/o my order number. And the Visor Deluxe is a whole different story. MUCH better then the Palm III

AnonymousLove it!

Thumbs Up

I miss some features of Palm OS 3.5 in my old IIIxe, but really love the feel of the buttons (silly, I know, but I like 'em), the enhanced date book, and the overall cool look- this one's a winner in my book!

blueVisorDXit's like my Amex card...

Thumbs Up

I can't leave home without it!

KevinHGood now, even better in the future.

Thumbs Up

I compared my Visor Deluxe to my girlfriends Palm IIIxe. The only real differences i found out was that the speaker in the Visor is much quieter and IMHO the visor looks nicer. Not much differences. Once all the springboard modules come out and are decently priced, that's when the Visor will shine. Although Palms can be upgraded into MP3 players, Digital Cameras also, it wasn't really designed to do that unlike the Handsprings.

ErkanGreat Product, best PDA in that price range!!!!!

Thumbs Up

I own a visor now for 5 Months and i am so pleased with it. The only thing I'm a little bit worried about is the expensive springboard modules. I don't know why those Springboard companies think that people would spent more money on a spring board than for the visor itself. Most of the time you can purchase the stand alone device (like Mp3 player) for less.
