I had a Palm IIIx, I think. I'm not sure now. I later got a Palm 3C when they came out. It was the first color model. I used both for a long time. Then I got a Palm Tunsten E2, which was a lot nicer.
These things all required a serial port. I think one of my old Netbooks might have a serial port but if not I'd probably need some sort of adapter to use one these days. It's sad to see such formerly wonderful technology become useless.
I gave my Palm E2 to the maintenance man at my retirement home several years ago and last year he told me the battery finally died and he threw it away. It had some very low res musical movies from the 40's and 50s on it and he had no way to connect it to anything so he just liked watching those over and over.
