Flashback: Palm m100
The Palm m100 was one of my first handheld devices. This is what I did with it...
The Palm m100 was one of my first handheld devices. I got it from eBay and it looked like that:
Later, I got an additional green shell. That was really fancy 😄
The software and hardware specs are not very impressive:
- Palm OS 3.5.1
- 160 x 160 pixel monochrome display
- 16 MHz Motorola Dragonball CPU
- 2 MB RAM
- Infrared
- RS232
- 2 AAA batteries
- Dock
Connection to a PC was made by serial (RS232) connection using a dock or a connector. I don't remember which software I used to sync anything...
The software was quite responsive, quite when you look at the specs. But to be honest, it didn't have much to do - no colors, just some kinds of grey, and only 4 apps to use (calendar, contacts, tasks, and hand writing).
Hand writing was very bad. But the other apps were quite usable...
