Summary: EXTREMELY UNHAPPY
Comment: I purchases this item in November, it is now January and after 2 weeks at Palm repairs it still does not work!!
I am soo upset, and I do not know who to complain to. Palm repair has all foreign speaking personal who can only read from a preprinted script and cannot understand "please transfer me to someone who speaks english"
I am out lots of money and no way to get a working pda!
I have no idea why I am writing this, no one cares. I will not get a message from someone to offer assistance on how to get one that actually works.
Oh well - happy new year I guess.

Summary: Horrid
Comment: How sad is this.
I've been using my E2 for school work and keeping track of my schedule and after using it for several months, it died. It only works for a few minutes after charging or resetting the device, and if you turn it off(it won't let you keep it on indefinetly) after ten minutes you won't get it to turn on. Even after replacing the battery this problem didn't go away.
What to do?
Chuck it

Summary: does not worth the money!
Comment: I had problems with my PDA the first day I received it.
When I called the customer service guy in India, he tried different things to try to solve the weak connection problems(which made it unable to syn) but nothing worked. After 3 years, I am not even able to turn off this PDA. When I tried to push the start/off button on the top right corner or the button at the bottom middle, nothing will happen. It is just a big waste of my battery and money!

Summary: Fantastic Organizer!
Comment: I love the Palm Tungsten E2. This is my second one. The first was a refurbished Tungsten. My only complaint is that the battery didn't last too long and it was difficult if not impossible to change unless you had the skill and tools to solder it. However, I liked it enough to purchase the E2 which has a replaceable battery. I refer to this device as "my other gray matter" as it has the capacity to store a great deal of information thus eliminating a lot of paper clutter.

Summary: Bought as replacement to Vx - what a bitter disappointment
Comment: I used Palm Vx (replacing broken & lost devices with used ones) for close to a decade, not wishing to replace a model I was very happy with.
Upon realizing I would be unable to replace my dying Vx with another, I went to buy a new Palm to replace it, and chose a Tungsten E2 on the spot for it's price.
Pros:
* USB sync, which I think is more convenient than the Vx cradle.
* Ability to play music, fun for my daily bus trips.
* Color screen, larger & SD expandable memory, etc.
* All the good applications which made me buy a Palm to begin with. The most important are the calender & contacts applications, as well as various games downloaded from the Internet & expenses.
Cons:
* For me, the worst con is the interface's translation to Hebrew (by Harel) is just useable, compared to the perfect Vx interface translation (by Calanit).
Beside a Hebrew font & right-to-left writing, just about nothing works right. The contacts application left-justifies everything, the calender application has hours on the left sides and days progressing from left to right, and the expenses application doesn't list the local currency.
* The battery can't be charged via USB.
This introduces the need for another cable, a transformator, as well as a need to change he transformator's socket connection when travelling to other countries.
* Bugs. Search is limited to eight results, though the interface makes the impression it would bring more results. Expenses has a bug for telephone expenses - it locks out the payment method & currency pull-downs on empty, and displays junk currency in the list.
Based on previous reviews, it appears Palm is not only aware of those problems, but has no intention of fixing them - neither in devices already manufactured nor in the future.
I bought the E2 blind - just walked into a shop, and bought a new Palm - based on my good experience with the Vx. That was a stupid thing to do, as the lemon I've got proves. When I replace the E2, it would not be with a Palm.
