I normally do not write bad reviews and I have reviewed several products on Amazon, but this thing sucks. My husband and I are relatively intelligent people. He is an IT specialist and the problems that we had with our units, I can assure were through no fault of our own (although I would love to take the blame). We bought two of these as cheap replace our old Palm Pilots and sync our busy schedules. Initially, I could get past the fact that I was afraid that the AAA batteries would crack the flimsy plastic casing, but the software is another story. It is absolutely horrendous! If you want to sync the unit with you pc be prepared to try at least 10 times. To make matters worse, you cannot use the unit itself nor the software it came with to schedule a recurring appointment. If you wish to schedule a recurring appointment, you must use Outlook. This begs the question, why develop or include software in the first place? My husband and I each bought one of these and ended up returning them!

Don't waste your money or your time.

The PDA works well and has plenty of features. I like that the key board slides inside to make it more compact for traveling. The screen is easy to read and touch screen works well.

The syncronization software is very glichy and does not work well with Windows XP. I had to disconet all peripheral devices reboot many times and get an additional fix from the help line to get it working.

I just bought (on a whim) one of these from Wal*mart tonight. Yes, I had two Palm PDAs for several years, and when the last one died, I thought I'd just get along with a paper calendar. I'm looking for another PDA!! Anyway, got my little Royal ezVue home, found some batteries (fresh, too) and installed them. It wouldn't power on. I traded batteries. It still won't power on. Then I thought I'd check reviews here on Amazon, and, well, I'm just gonna return it tomorrow and get my money back. Apparently, even when it works, it doesn't work very well.

geez, I don't know why all the bad reviews, I bought one around three years ago, its taken a lot of hits by carrying it around on camping trips and biking but now the screen is going out, probably because its been jangled with other stuff so much. I'm ordering another one now, the software works great for XP Pro but does take a time or two to know just how to sync but after that it goes right across and I'm no computer expert. The keyboard is nice and large enough for finger use, also two stylus's are included. I'd give it a five but the screen does not have a cover.

I was looking over past reviews, this organizer quit working because the screen was going bad, piece of crap, too bad, I did like it and a nice interface with a PC but don't take it even if its given to you because it just won't last.

I thought this was a great idea for an organizer. All I really need is a calendar and address book. I'm on a computer all day and I have an internet tablet for vacation travel, so I don't need another PDA. My tablet doesn't have a program for snail mail addresses, so I wanted something small and convenient for a quick check. I also liked the idea of a keyboard built in.

Sadly, this one hasn't been too good. There's not enough room for international addresses, and the screen has slowly started to fade on me. There are blank spots, and as time goes on it's getting harder and harder to read. I'm wondering if it's a low battery, but if that's the case then that means the batteries don't last as long as they do in my old Sharp organizer.

this is not what I thought it was. It's almost a little toy and not very user friendly without the book.

This EZVUE PDA is no way, no how easy. It would not sync with my computer, I had to install the program three times. The keyboard does not stay locked when extended. I will never by Royal ever again. Working professionals need something with ease, not anything that will make more work. Do not waste your money and buy this product.

Bought this to give it a try, worked quite well to start with and synched with my computer then after a day it failed dont waste your money, zero support from the manufacturer.

It looks really high tech with the swivel out bottom but in all actuality its really basic. It does what it says it will do.

Got this for my husband because he had not joined the 21st century in the use of modern technology but this ended up in the trash because it just wasn't user friendly. Slow.
