About the Palm Z22
If you're still using a paper planner, maybe it's time to catch up with technology and upgrade to the affordable and easy-to-use Palm Z22 handheld. It enables you to keep your entire day-to-day schedule and contact information at hand and in your pocket--no more flipping through multiple pages, looking for scraps of paper or keeping track of to-do lists. And you won't have to enter the same thing twice--once on the computer and once in your planner, as you can easily make updates on your computer and synchronize data to the Palm Z22 in just a minute or two.

This handheld features a 32 MB of flash memory (20 MB accessible for file and software storage), Palm OS 5.4 (Garnet), a fast 200 MHz ARM-based processor, and an internal rechargeable battery (that can be charged via the included AC adapter or via the USB cable connected to your PC).

Weighing just over 3 ounces and about the same size as a deck of playing cards, the Palm Z22 is compact and stylish with a white front and translucent blue backing. Small enough to fit into any purse, backpack or back pocket, it boasts a bright, 160 x 160-pixel color touchscreen display, which provides easy readability of names, addresses, and appointments. You can even color-code appointments for improved organization, and view and carry pictures of friends and family wherever you go.

Operating System and Software
The installed Palm OS 5.4 uses the intuitive and easy-to-learn Graffiti 2 writing software to input data into the handheld (as well as an on-screen keyboard). Windows users can synchronize their calendar, contacts, tasks, and notes with Microsoft Outlook. The Palm OS features the following organizer applications:

  • Contacts: Lets you store several addresses for each contact, and with new fields for more phone numbers, multiple e-mail addresses, instant messenger IDs, and Web sites.
  • Calendar: Use the new Agenda view to see upcoming calendar events, tasks due, and important e-mail, and color-code your events to provide an easy way to reference your calendar in the Agenda, Day, Week, and Month views. Take more notes, or synchronize more details from your desktop, in the larger Memos and Notes fields.
  • Tasks: Use tasks with alarms and repeating tasks to set reminders for important commients.
It also includes AddIt, a program that includes a variety of applications such as CheckSplit, Chess, Carb Counter and Solitaire. The bonus software CD-ROM has an eBook reader with three books and a dictionary, the powerOne Calculator (perfect for basic and advanced mathematics), and SplashShopper (a helpful shopping list application).

Compatibility
The Palm Z22 is compatible with PCs running Windows Windows 2000 (SP4) and XP (Outlook synchronization requires MS Outlook 2000, 2002, or 2003; sold separately), and with Macs running Mac OS 10.2.8 to 10.4.

What's in the Box
Palm Z22 handheld, USB sync cable, power adapter, 3-step setup poster, Graffiti 2 sticker, Software Install CD-ROM with Palm Desktop, Tutorial, Getting Started Guide, User Guide, bonus software, and included in the Z22 Essentials Pak a free carry case, extra styli, and extra screen protectors

5 out of 5 stars Perfect for my needs   July 20, 2008
The Palm Z22 is exactly what I was looking for. I wasn't interested in getting a smart phone because that's just one more thing that could go wrong, but I needed to break away from the paper organizers I've been using. This is small and does just what I need it to do, for an excellent price. I would recommend this to anyone looking to make their organization a little easier.

I love my Palm! I am finally organized. I think it's a great system with just the right programs for me. I would suggest it to anyone who has a small business and is trying to stay on top of it, and life too! I LOVE IT!


5 out of 5 stars Great Product   June 16, 2008
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

I have to say I am loving my Z22 Palm! I've had it for a little over a month by now. I have had no problems with it like other reviews had mentioned, and I use it every day for everything that requires organizing and keeping up to date.(calendar, grocery lists, appoinments, addresses, to do list, quick reminders, you name it.. it can do it...) I am just mad I did not buy something like this years earlier. It is so easy to use and so many programs you can add to it. I will never go back to a paper calendar organizer ever again. I do recommend the screen protectors because the screen will get scratch if left inside a purse unprotected. The only thing negative about it is that I am still looking for something that will cover the screen when not in use so that the screen is not out in the open all the time, but besides from that it has been a great product.I definately recommed to anyone who still uses an organizer book-calendar.


1 out of 5 stars Got Vista Don't bother!   June 14, 2008

Nice unit, small and compact.
But....this thing does NOT seem to like Windows Vista.
Will not download the photo software from the CD. Palm Customer Service is less than helpful.
May have to return this junk and get something that actually works as advertised.



2 out of 5 stars I wish I had known   December 21, 2006
 3 out of 5 found this review helpful

I have been a Palm owner for two years. I had to replace my Tungsten T3 because after two years the battery died and it is not replaceable. Because I use Apple computers, I'm really stuck using PALM products. I do enjoy graffiti 2 and the OS. I just wish that PALM would create better hardware.

With that said, I decided to buy the Z22 because after two years, I realized that I used Bluetooth two times, never used the expansion slot, and I new I would never use the Wi-Fi capabilities (which I understand don't seem to be very compatible with most wireless networks anyway). When deciding to purchase the Z22, I figured that since I was buying a newer product, I would at least get the quality that my T3 had, less the bells and whistles. Boy was I wrong!

To start, the color resolution on the screen is drastically worse than the T3. I'm not sure why they choose to market that you can put your photos on the Z22. The ones that come with the machine, which were most likely adjusted for maximum clarity, are very pixilated and blurred. It actually gives me a slight headache to try and use the Z22.

The speed of the Z22 is much, much slower than my old T3. The Z22 sometimes takes seconds to process the most minute of tasks. For example, I've ended up repeating characters using graffiti 2 because I thought it wasn't recognizing my strokes. Instead, it was just taking a really long time to think about the letter I had written three times and I end up with three of the same letter on the screen. With the T3, I had immediate response to what I wrote. I'm not sure what processor the T3 had but it was much faster.

In the same vein, the touch screen is not very sensitive at all. I feel as though I am scraping the screen in order to get a response.

I have only worked with the Z22 for about five minutes and figured out these, what I deem to be, extreme problems. I do not recommend this product if you are used to a higher quality PALM, Windows Pocket PC, or a base level Computer monitor or laptop screen. It is definitely not worth the money. I have seen $20.00 handheld games with better resolution and reaction time than this $100.00 paperweight.
