Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Three years old Comment: I've had mine for three years. I did buy it new, though. I have been eyeing the Dell Axim, but since there is nothing wrong with my Casio, I can't find any reason to switch. Customer Rating: Summary: Poor craftsmanship! Comment: Sure the em-500 is great, while it works! I bought two units off ebay and they were like new when I received them. One worked fine for only about six months, then the internal memory died and left me with a 200 dollar paperweight. The second lasted another six months. Then it too, developed a case of the internal flu. It won't even work right long enough for me too get the information stored in it off! If it were just one unit I might think I were just unlucky, but two going bad tells me these aren't built to withstand even normal use! A paper and pencil would have been so much cheaper! Customer Rating: Summary: Too Cool Comment: I purchased it 2 years ago. I used it just a little. Now I sell real estate, and I think it just great. I am learning how many wonderful features it has. The screen is a little hard to read in the sun, but what are sun-glasses for??? I wish that they had not stop making it. Most of my friends use the palm, and they are always saying how hard it is to use, this em-500 is a breeze. Customer Rating: Summary: This Pocket Pc Is Great!!!... Comment: I bought this pocket pc last year ... i enjoy using it and have done what i want with it i use every free software i can find on it and it seems to keep up pretty well considering it is a 2001 model ;) it is a good value for its prize BUT... the battery doesent seem to keep up with me :( but if you want to spend a little more you can buy an extended life battery from casio :) so in conclusion it is a great handheld but its battery life could have been better Customer Rating: Summary: Excelent Performance At Low Cost!! Comment: I buy this because i needed an organiser (addresses/phone book, notes, etc) and need advance features like Word Excel Money, and this little jewel do it and much more. Very Good PDA, stable and fast. Only problem is the low factory memory but the solution is my 64mb of MMC memory i buy with it :)
