5.0 out of 5 stars This Palm OS PDA stays with you.
Most PDAs are easier to forget, loose, or break than this unit appears to be. That is why I was willing to pay for a Fossil FX2008 Wrist PDA. Sure, I could buy a Palm OS PDA with more and newer features. What good would it do if I forget it at home or broke it in my pocket?

If you do not like the stylus in the watch band, you can buy a combination...

3.0 out of 5 stars PDA watch heavyweight
I tried one of these watches with Mac OS 10.4.2. The version of Palm OS supplied would not install because of a permissions issue. Even if it would have the watch is far to heavy wih its metal case. Put it in a plastic case to save weight and improve on the battery life and maybe I'll buy one and keep it.

5.0 out of 5 stars This Palm OS PDA stays with you., May 5, 2005

Most PDAs are easier to forget, loose, or break than this unit appears to be. That is why I was willing to pay for a Fossil FX2008 Wrist PDA. Sure, I could buy a Palm OS PDA with more and newer features. What good would it do if I forget it at home or broke it in my pocket?

If you do not like the stylus in the watch band, you can buy a combination pen/stylus. That is what I did and it works for me. Then you still have the stylus in the band for emergency.

Someone inventive could put the body in a hard case and turn it into a pocket watch/PDA. I know of no other Palm OS PDA that is as small in diameter.

I am never without my watch, so now I am never without a PDA.

4.0 out of 5 stars heavy, geek tool, November 20, 2005
This review is from: Fossil FX2008 Wrist PDA with Palm OS (Office Product)
this watch is by all means cool, but it would be better if it weighed about 3 oz. less and had a built in stopwatch

i love how all the apps for previious palms work on it and people are instantly impressed by its features.

the worst things are
size
weight
B&W screen

Another review asked why this one is more expensive than the other one. I THINK it may be because this one ships from Amazon, and the other from TigerDirect. Other than that, I think functionality is the same, although I believe Fossil offers several different bands.
