Rating: 3
Summary: A little to basic.
Comment: In my opinion this book is a rewrite of the Palm Handbook. It's very basic.
Rating: 4
Summary: Almost like painting by numbers
Comment: For a brand new user of a Palm Pilot, it can be a bit intimidating to look at the user guide. The Little Palm book tremendously eased the pain of learning a new technology.
Besides being entertaining and easy to read, the book provides a great comparison of the Palms so that the reader is aware of the strengths and room-for-improvement (like memory limitations)of the unit he/she has, or is planning to buy.
A chapter on other resources besides 3com was extremely helpful. Like any new owner, it is predictable to search all kinds of information for buyer assurance, and then some.
The book walked me through several "exercises" that I felt confident enough to use the Palm after just one reading.
This is an excellent reference. Thanks for all the other reviewers who reinforced my decision to get this book.
Rating: 5
Summary: Extremely helpful for "Late Adaptors"
Comment: I got burned over a previous problem last year with hotsynching the Palm V with Windows NT (3Com didn't have a "fix" for it then), so I returned my first one. I waited almost a year before I tried again with another Palm V, and I wanted a quick indoctrination into the ins-and-outs of how to use it. This book was the ticket, and then some.
Only thing I was surprised about was that this book assumes the readers will opt for the Palm Desktop as their Personal Information Manager. I use Microsoft Outlook extensively, and don't want to switch, especially since I already have so much info programmed in Outlook.
Otherwise this was just perfect. So happy to note that even though there are later versions of the Palm, my baby has lots of room to grow!
