Worst PDA ever

Reviewing: Palm One Tungsten E2
Purchased at: Bestbuy     Price: $209.99 USD

Last year my school made a plan to get rid of paperwork and have it all done electronically, by the form of a PDA. This was a nice idea but was poorly executed due to the chosen device, the tungsten E2. The main problem that it has is being far too restricted; there are only three or four basic programs like a calculator and a notepad yet somehow palm has made them so difficult to use. It usually takes me about five minutes just to get the keyboard up!

I know that sounds bad but it gets worse, the touch screen is completely messed up: you have to touch about 2cm to the left of anything you want to click! They are also incredibly fragile, half of the school had their palms broken within the first two weeks, it was a disaster.

About half way through the school year there was an anouncment saying they where not needed. This was a complete waste of money and i have no use for it at home since it has no internet access
