5.0 out of 5 stars A [value]!, October 13, 2000
This review is from: Casio PV-400PLUS Cassiopeia Pocket Viewer Handheld Organizer (Office Product)
I started looking for an inexpensive PDA to help me remember appointments and daily work schedule stuff. I intended to buy either a Palm III or a Handspring Visor, figuring that [it] was a good price compared to all the other prices I'd seen. Thank goodness I searched the Internet. I came across the Royal daVinci and the PV-400Plus, both cost [the same]. I bought the daVinci, and like what it offers, despite a minor glitch it had. You can get an optional mini-keyboard, you can upload new features into it, and it syncs with MS Outlook. Then I found a local store that had the Casio and decided I'd compare them. The Casio is half as thin, doesn't have a mini-keyboard (yet), you can't load new features into it, but it comes with what I needed. The one-handed dial is a bonus for looking up something quickly, and its size makes it easier to find a wallet case for (it'll fit into almost any Palm case). It syncs perfectly with MS Outlook at the touch of a button, using 95/98/NT, whatever. It comes with everything you need right out of the box. I kept the Casio and took the daVinci back the next day, and I've been loving it every since. Several of my friends are now re-evaluating their PDA options. As long as you don't need a PDA you can connect to the Internet with, I highly recommend the PV-400Plus.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect Product For Daily Life, October 11, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Casio PV-400PLUS Cassiopeia Pocket Viewer Handheld Organizer (Office Product)
I was looking for a PDA and found out how expensive they were. I first bought a Royal DaVinci and the sync program did not sync right and it crashed three times. So, I returned it and bought the Casio PV400 plus. Its is such a great PDA. If you are using it to retreive memos, contacts, and notes its perfect. If you want to cruise the net, buy a palm. It has a Data Copy program which is very useful. You can high light entire pages of texts online or a document, and it transfers the enitre text and splits it page be page on the Casio. This is useful because most PDA's will get only a number of characters an loose the rest of the text. Also, the software is not glitchy. I have had it for 7 months already, and it has not failed once. I even dropped it hard on a marble floor, and the screen did not break, data was not lost. It still works perfectly. Not even a scratch on the body. I recommend the Casio to anyone. Its very helpful in daily life. Casio really focusses on pratical use instead of the bells and whitles that most of the public does not use. Pro: 4 mb of memory, cradle, stylus, software, schedule, 5 memo sections, expense tracking, quick memo, todo, 7 phone files, secret area, back light, one hand use, games, and much more Cons: Backlight turns off every 15 seconds, but saves battery consumption (practical) Note: Has a bigger display than palm M-100

5.0 out of 5 stars excellent value and size, November 23, 2000
By 
"thekopins" (Rochester, Michigan USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Casio PV-400PLUS Cassiopeia Pocket Viewer Handheld Organizer (Office Product)
I bought a casio pv200A last year and loved how user friendly it was to use. Two months ago, I bought the new pv400A. This PDA has several features that alot of buyers overlook. I wanted a PDA that I could put in my shirt pocket comfortably. Almost all of the other "palm" units were somewhat heavy and thick. I suggest that anyone considering buying a PDA try putting it into their shirt pocket for awhile as see how it feels. This is where you will in all likelihood carry your PDA for many hours during the day. This casio unit is VERY THIN AND LIGHT (compare them in the store), so having the casio in your shirt pocket will be comfortable compared to the much thicker and heavier palms. Believe me, this is important. Also, when in dim light, the WHOLE SCREEN BACKGROUND lights up very brightly just like the indiglo watches. Try this with the other "palms", and their screens almost vanish because the characters light up against an unlit background. In a dimly lit car interior (very common use for me), the casio is easy to read. I liked the FLASH MEMORY feature because if the batteries died, you didn't lose any data. I also liked the casio feature that remembered previously entered words, so as you typed, the screen AUTO-COMPLETED your words and sped up data entry. The casio features are very user friendly and logical. The scheduler appears uncluttered, and moving from screen to screen was easy. I don't know if other palms have secret areas, but this casio feature really helps me with passwords for websites, etc. All in all, a great value. Some of these issues may seem small, but over time they become very important to users.
