 Does absolutely everything I need it to November 29, 2008

I've had this device for a few weeks now and have only just started reading the manual. It really is extremely easy to get up and running with this. I bought it as replacement for my aging Sharp organiser with keyboard, and was worried that having to use a stylus was going to be much slower and more fiddly. But it's fine - you get used to it really quickly and the space saved by not having the keyboard is fantastic.
There were a few things that I bemoaned not having - mainly preferences and settings - which I accepted because of the price and size. And then I read the manual - and this opened up another new world with this little gem! You can tweak nearly everything - you can tailor things to remind you in exactly the way you want to be reminded, how you are reminded, how you enter data, how you view data - the only disadvantage I can see with this thing is that you can easily start to let it run your life! But for busy people, that's exactly what you want, and this it does extremely well.
The icing on the cake is the synchronisation between PC and organiser. Plug it in to a USB port (it charges at the same time - you won't need the included power supply) and click Hot-sync. 20 seconds later - done! All items from the Z22 now on the PC and all items from the PC now on the Z22. And the PC application which goes with this is in itself a great piece of well-thought out software which complements the Z22 perfectly. And it runs perfectly under Vista!
If, like me, you just want a nice compact, light organiser which doesn't pull your pockets out of shape, is cheap and can be carried anywhere - get this. If you want something which does everything - phone, email, internet etc - it won't suit you.

My Z22 has broken down twice since I was given it in September 2007. Two months after I had it and now December 2008. It was covered by the warranty in 2007, but not now. They have told me it will cost 74 to repair it!! So it is going in the bin!!
A real cracking PDA October 29, 2008

I bought this PDA for my daughter and it is her first. I should add that my daughter has Dyspraxia so her coordination and here attention span is lacking. She generally gets bored after 3-5 minutes no matter what she is doing. So I wanted a PDA which was easy to use, instructions second to none to follow and the PDA had to be able to allow here to use a diary and address book effortlessly. This PDA does all that. In fact I had said that if she got on well with this PDA I would upgrade it to a HP at Christmas. Guess what, the PDA excels and she doesn't see the point in upgrading. Excellent PDA for the first time user. Recommended.
Bin Your Filofax October 14, 2008

All I wanted was a simply PIM system to help me keep track of my life. It was a struggle to find a device that was basic but functional and compatible with the Mac. I didn't want an all singing all dancing device that I could play games on, watch films on or book holidays on. I just needed a simple PDA. The Z22 fits the bill perfectly.
I stripped the Z22 of all the rubbish I didn't need, such as Crazy Daisy and Addit. My Z22 is used specifically as a filofax. And for this basic purpose it does an admirable job.
I stopped short of giving the Z22 5 stars, as I think it's pricey for its specification. But I have found this PDA to be a little gem. I don't want everything integrated... I have an iPod for my music, I have a DS for mobile gaming, I have a Flip for on-the-spot filming and a Casio Exilim for stills photography. I like to keep these functions separate. If one device screws up, I at least haven't lost all of that functionality.
If you want all the bells and whistles, spend a lot more cash... if all you need is an alternative to a bulky filofax, then you can't go wrong with the Z22.
Paperless Address Book August 19, 2008

I have an old paper organiser folder and it is a mess and it needed more filo pages to put them in the folder and update the details by hand, so I thought to myself "no" as I want to keep up with the technology. After having read all the reviews, I bought a Palm Z22 last week and just got it yesterday and I am so impressed with this little machine.
The calender is easy to use, clear and can be easily synchronised with a PC. Records can be colour coded by type (eg business, personal etc) and there is plenty of space for entering the appointment details. The Z22 also has programmes for managing contacts, expenses, writing memo's and making notes in your own handwriting and more.. Yes it's true you cannot download music or send e-mails, but I don't need them as I already have them on my laptop and my mobile phone. I carry it everywhere with me and fit in my handbag. If you want an easy to use PDA, this is the one for you.
