The Handspring Visor Edge is the thinnest, infinitely expandable hand-held computer. It 's a slim, sleek, rechargeable Palm OS ®organizer with endless expansion possibilities. And because the Visor Edge has a unique detachable Springboard TM slot, it 's completely expandable when you need it, and incredibly thin when you don't. Plus, it 's plug-and-play so there are no drivers to load. Just snap in a Springboard module -like a phone, digital camera, wireless modem, and more -and it works!

Based on the popular Palm OS the Visor Edge has powerful organizing capabilities. In addition to an address book, to do list, and memo pad, there are extra features like an enhanced date book, advanced calculator and a world clock. Plus, it has new usability features like Fast Lookup, silent alarms, wireless synchronization, handy address duplication, improved security, and enhanced navigation. And, since it uses the Palm OS, you can download thousands of Palm-compatible applications, transfer all your existing Palm organizer data with one touch, and beam information to other Palm users. When it comes to synchronizing, the USB connection makes everything amazingly fast and easy. Using the USB cradle and Hot Sync ®technology you can back up, update or exchange information between your Visor Edge handheld and desktop computer in seconds. What 's more, the Visor Edge is rechargeable so you'll never have to deal with batteries again. The Visor Edge lasts for weeks on a single charge (based on normal usage; individual experience may vary) and recharges quickly -right in the cradle! And while we 're on the subject of speed, the Visor Edge is incredibly fast too, allowing you to instantly access all your data and view crisp ray scale graphics.

    Handspring Visor Edge

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Aug 29, 2001 | 2 out of 3 found this Handspring Visor Edge - Silver review helpful

    I like PDAs and I lov the sleek thin design of the Handspring Visor Edge. I chose the black and white screen over color for battery life. The battery does last a very long time in the Visor. Sometimes I forget to put it in the tray for over a month. ...What pushed me into the Handspring instead of the Palm was the buttons. The buttons on the Handspring felt solid where the buttons of the Palm felt squishy and were plastic. "The Palm 500 line hadn't been introduced." Aside from that the two are almost the same. I use the IR ports to move information back and forth between my colleges Palm. The only reason for not rating it a 5 is that I wish it had a vibraton mode to alarm me in meeting such as a cell phone does. None at the time had this feature. Read more Less

    Visor Edge is the best

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Dec 24, 2002 | 1 out of 2 found this Handspring Visor Edge - Silver review helpful

    i own a Handspring visor edge. it is the best pda that i have ever had. the support that you can get is very helpful if you dont know how to work a pda. the visor edge is also the best because it is able to expand and take on features such as a cell ...phone and a gsp finder in the expansion slot. i think that the price is a little high but it is well worth it if you get one.
