The good:  Updated OS; 8MB of RAM.
The bad:  Requires extra purchase to sync with most PIMs; ditto for Macs.

handheld device makers is its commitment to simplicity: making improvements where possible but avoiding unnecessary redesigns. Thankfully, the Palm IIIxe is no exception. It embodies the simplicity and utility of previous Palm devices but with an increased amount of RAM (8MB) and the latest Palm OS (3.5), all at a reasonable price.

"For those that need true organization!"
It is an excellent product. However, I must admit that there is no memory expansion slot; basically leaving us out in the cold when technology moves ahead. Otherwise, this is the best thing I bought in a very long time. My life is truly more organized, and more and more companies are making products to assimilate with the palm pilot. I can even change the battery on the fly and not worry about having the cradle with me when I do so. Unlike the palm V. Palm IIIxe is the best choice!
