Partying Is Such Sweet Sorrow - I Am Cyborg (part II): “I bought the T5 with a WiFi card. The T5 was largely panned by Palm fanatics when it was released because it doesn’t include a bunch of features like a voice recorder, built-in WiFi, or (insert pet feature here). But I had no expectations so I was able to look at it with a tabula rasa. The Zodiac is a nice machine but I’m indifferent to games, so the video card was meaningless to me, and I wondered if the older processor would be able to run Palm OS6 (if that’s ever available). I would like to have dual SD slots (the T5 only has one SD slot) but it’s not a deal-breaker. The PocketPC devices had built-in WiFi and better screens, but cost more and ran an awkward OS. I just couldn’t justify spending $100 for VGA when the tiny screen size renders the difference in resolution moot.
When you consider that the T5 will be a replacement for a laptop, an MP3 player, and a book reader, it’s a good value.”
