Shop For ViewSonic V36 Pocket PC

I know this review is late, but I had this PDA (got it as a Christmas gift three years ago), and I regret not giving it the kudos it deserved while I used it.

After looking at Palm devices and Windows-based PDAs, I let everyone know this was the PDA for me. The price was right, and I heard through the Christmas gifting grapevine that rebates were available at the time, and it was a "good deal" (that meant under $200 at the time).

I was looking for a simple PDA, but the V36 was that and much more... camera, built in microphone, simple to use text input methods, SD-card friendly, couldn't ask for much more.

With nothing more than a simple plastic film screen protector and its factory-supplied leather-like case, it traveled to Europe with me safely, and returned back to the States in good condition.

It functioned pretty passably as a low-end digital camera and recording device, and I kept my calendars and diaries on it. It was quite a workhorse, starting up pretty quickly and never freezing up on me. I liked that it had a user replacable battery, but by the time the battery lost its ability to recharge, the batteries were hard to come by.

At this point, I'm moving on to a cellphone (I'm a conservative tech adapter), but when I used it to its last dying charge, the Viewsonic V36 had truly fit the bill! No regrets. Good for a first time PDA user.Get more detail about ViewSonic V36 Pocket PC.
