Its the vast number of different designs and innovations that makes it so cool, not like todays smart phones where they al look basically the same - shame there aren't smart phones designed like this!
I know it has been sometime. But I REALLY enjoyed going down memory lane. I bought this in 1999 it launched me into the world of PDA's. It was extremely useful for my international business travels. With it, I stopped carrying a very bulky laptop and briefcase. I put e-books on it and would read at least two books for each international trip. Thanks for this video!!
I'm glad you enjoyed it. The Palm V is a genuine classic and great for ebooks! If you want to relive it I would recommend the M500, they are very cheap on ebay have an SD slot and most importantly the battery is very easy to replace unlike on the V or Vx :-)
It is cool, its pretty good to type on, they did an updated version for later models and there's a universal (ie works with windows CE as well) IR version made by another company which I have as well
Such an amazing era… I wish devices these day were as diverse and cool as back then

Nice gear. This was the last one I had with the keyboard before I jumped over to Blackberry for work.
The add on keyboard is really nice too use too I never moved to Blackberry but the keyboards do look good, might have to add it to my wanted list!
You forget to showcase the inverted green text, it's a really cool feature
It is a cool feature especially when reading in the dark! I found it very difficult to image the backlight properly 😞
I loved all my palm handhelds! Still use one for backup of my personal data, reading books, listening music, playing Klondike. ;)
They are great devices, so simple to use, I still have memos on mine from 20+ years ago as they make a great place to store bits of info!
10:01 wow this looks SO COOL
