Good for your aplications2002-12-27
This is a good product for store your aplications, the only bad thing is that you can't store databases on it.
Overpriced, undersized2002-05-20
This card is a sham folks, save your money and get a 16MB or 32MB MMC or SD card and download BackupBuddy. They offer two versions, a free utility that installs onto the card and the palm that allows you to do manual backups and restores. Or a very cheap shareware version that does automated incremental backups, encrypts the backup files. Both versions allow you to restore from the card without having to reload the software into the palm.

I don't know why Palm choose to sell this card at such a high price... it seems like they took an MMC card and put a backup utility on it, and doubled the price.

Good but too expensive2002-05-13
Eventhough it's good and fast due to SD card bandwidth interface, compared to MMC and Sony memory stick. Palm 16 MB SD card is too expensive. The price of [money], you can buy at least 32 MB or even 64 MB of Sandisk SD card from some stores. Moreover, 16 MB is not enough anymore when most of the professional palm programs are among 4-5 MB.
A Traveller's Best Friend- Protect Important New Contacts2002-03-07
I bought two of these cards.

Just like it is supposed to, this card only backs up your PDA's built-in memory, not your expansion card memories. The most important thing in my PDA is my built-in memory. It contains my contacts, my calendar and my encrypted PINs- I use an encryption program. I cannot afford to have these lost which is why I use a PDA in the first place. If my PDA is lost or destroyed I can buy a new PDA, but if I just entered several new contacts, appointments, or encrypted PINs since I last performed a HotSync, I have to reacquire that data. I carry one backup card on me at all times in a pill box- along with my other expansion cards- and swap it every week with a backup card I keep at home or in my hotel room. This way I have a week old back up if I need to check something I accidentally deleted without selecting "Save archive copy on PC". If my wife or I enter an important new contact, appointment, or encrypted PIN, I immediately use my back-up card to back up the data, instead of waiting until the next time I am at my computer to HotSync. Most people recommend buying a 16MB expansion card and using a backup program to backup your PDA. I disagree. Since the backup software is hardwired into the card and very simple to use, I do not have to worry about accidentally ruining the backup.

This card is not for everyone. But if you have important data, the ability to buy a replacement PDA, slip the back-up card in, and instantly have your PDA back, makes this a life saver on the road.

Would like to give it more than 3 stars2002-02-23
I would like to give Palm 5 stars for this product but in spite of it works excelent, I have to say that in the event that one card stops working 3 weeks after bought, Palm as a serious company confident of the quality of its product should have a minimun Warranty for this kind of accesories. Not the case. I decided to bought it after having Palms since the 3com pro model and noticed how important is to count with your data in the event of a Palm accident. Unfortunately, what should be a bullet prof device fails first than the device it was suposed to protect.

Digital camera batteries
Batteries are vital for all photography and makiing sure that you have a spare set is essential if you intend to take alot of pictures. Print digital also recommend that when deciding upon a digital camera keep in mind what sort of batteries it takes. Does it take rechargeable batteries, are the batteries built and do you have to plug it into the mains, or does the camera only take standard batteries, if so then it can become exspensive if you are a keen photographer and use the camera alot. There are three types of rechargeable batteries: NiCD, NiMH and Lithium-Ion. Nickel Metal Hydride are the most popular rechargeable batteries at present. They hold more charge than their counter parts NiCD and don't suffer from memory effect. The one small down fall of these batteries is that they will loose a small amount of charge even if they are not being used, so be sure to check the batteries before using them. When you purchase a new digital camera make sure to ask what type of battery ...
Audio & Video Connections Guide
" For a list of all the ways technology has failed to improve the quality of life, please press three." - Alice Kahn This quote is certainly applicable to consumer electronics. From the very first commercially produced radios to the latest in high-definition television technology, the manner in which the components used to deliver our news, music, movies and entertainment are interconnected seems to have escaped logic. For both the newcomer and the old hand alike, connecting equipment in the most efficient and effective manner can be a painful chore. It is hoped this article will improve your background knowledge concerning potential A/V system connection schemes and where each is most appropriate. The next time you find yourself in a "connectivity quandary" perhaps the ideas shared here will help you to quickly solve the riddle of which wire goes where and why!
