  A Review of PalmOne’s Zire 72 and 31

Got one for my [non-techie] wife for Xmas.
She likes it a lot. Big move up from an
old Palm that she quit using because it
was clunky. The BlueTooth is nice for syncing
with her Mac G5 [got the bluetooth for wireless
keyboard and mouse], but is WAY too slow to
upload music or download photos.


Connectivity is good enough for what she wants
though, so likely won't get the Wi-Fi adapter.


Am thinking about the GPS nav system [uses
bluetooth to talk to receiver].

    I now have my Zire 72 GPS up and running and am EXTREMELY happy with it. I now am impatiently waiting for TomTom to release the Apple version of their software so I can perform my own installs and updates. I regret I had to ask a friend with a PC to assist in getting me up and running.

    Highly recommend this equipment. I've seen instances when I was receiving data from SEVEN satellites on this system. I now hope they will go to a nautical version as well since that is so much in demand in the area of the Chesapeake Bay.

      Very interested in the TomTom GPS software for Mac that you mentioned. I like using GPS on my palm but have not found a software program designed for downloading maps from my Mac. Has TomTom released their Mac version yet (today is 6/2/05)? Can you tell me any more about this?
      Thanks

    Just wanted to let you know I have the GPS on the way--expected to arrive around February 1, 2005. I'm anxious to see how it works, but disturbed that I had so much difficulty locating it. Had to buy another Palm Zire 72 when I had one about a month old because that was the only way I could locate the GPS system for the Zire 72.
