NYT T|5 Article

sUnShInE · 11-04-2004, 02:08 PM

The New York Times tech section has a great article that lays out the allure of the T|5 today.

Quote:

Ready or not, here it comes: This palmtop is also a flash drive.

...

So, with the T5, PalmOne giveth, and PalmOne cutteth corners. If you choose a T5, you'll gain one gigantic, brilliant, workflow-boosting feature, but you'll lose six others (collapsible body, brighter screen, vibrating alarm, Universal Connector, voice recorder, charging cradle). Call it the very new math of PalmOne:

T5 = T3 + 1 - 6.

This summary is so good I don't think I have to read any other T5 review.

Another T5 review - with a rather different verdict - from The Register

Quote:

I certainly wouldn't get a T3 now, despite the price cut. The T3's key benefits were speed and screen-size - the T5 has both and more besides.

I agree with all his form assessments, but for @$150 cheaper than the T5, the T3 is nothing to balk at.

Let's face it: with the T5 palmOne certainly didn't win a price for being inventive.
