Title: RE: Palm Pilot Devices




The Blackberry is a great, easy to use, simple to 
understandtool for sales drones and the like. I don't think I would 
put it in the same class as a pocket PC, for most of the reasons spelled out in 
this thread. It is not as multi-functional as a PocketPC, it isreally only designed to receive wireless 
email. The fact that the messages are 
pushed to it is a big plus for some of the more technology-challenged users I 
have (those that have to put "lunch" on their calendar to remind them to 
eat). 

Is it the right tool to 
admin your network while sitting on a lounge chair on the beach in Maui?, 
no. Will it deliver email and meeting requeststo the VP of sales 
while he's on the 12th fairwayduring a "business meeting"?, 
absolutely.

I've got anBB 
server with about 20 users, which we've been running for about 18 months now - 
please feel free to pm me if you have any questions when you get 
it.

  Thanks for scaring me guys. I just ordered the server, BB 
  software and 5 units. I will say this much though: I have talked 
  to MANY IT people and most of them swear that Blackberry is one of the 
  greatest Email "toys" ever invented. Guess I will

Either way I have used a Blackberry and frankly hate then. The only

RE: Palm Pilot Devices

2001-12-11 Thread Ellery July

Well I looked at these for organizational use and let me first state we
ended up Compaq 1500 then 3645 B/W PocketPC but I use a Jornada for myself.

The difference between B/W Pocket and palms are not that great. If all you
want is a portable outlook then either will work OK. You can get Palm
software to read work/excel docs.

The big thing is what other software do you want to use or need. Palm does
have a lot more software and getting something from Handspring will enable
your boss to do some very cool stuff.

If color is important (which is it to lots of people) then PocketPC is the
only way to go. 

PocketPC cost more then Palms. Interesting,  my observations both will not
sync about the same number of times.

Lastly stay away from Blackberry unless your boss only travels to major
cities (on east coast or west coast) and does not want to use a cell phone.

I've had real good luck with blackberry up and down the I5 corridor.  Canada
to San Diego.
it's not to good if you get off the main drag.  any large city they work
great.  the calendar thing was resolved in july i believe.  i haven't had

 Well I looked at these for organizational use and let me first state we
 ended up Compaq 1500 then 3645 B/W PocketPC but I use a Jornada for
myself.

 The difference between B/W Pocket and palms are not that great. If all you
 want is a portable outlook then either will work OK. You can get Palm
 software to read work/excel docs.

 The big thing is what other software do you want to use or need. Palm does
 have a lot more software and getting something from Handspring will enable
 your boss to do some very cool stuff.

 If color is important (which is it to lots of people) then PocketPC is the
 only way to go.

 PocketPC cost more then Palms. Interesting,  my observations both will not
 sync about the same number of times.

 Lastly stay away from Blackberry unless your boss only travels to major
 cities (on east coast or west coast) and does not want to use a cell
phone.

Title: RE: Palm Pilot Devices



hmmm...sorry for your bad experience. 
I've 
never used one to initiate a meeting request (fortunately I don't go to many 
meetings) but many of my users have done so without problems. Their 
tech-support has been relatively good on the few occasions I've had to 
call.

We 
have users in San Francisco, Baltimore, and NYC with no reported coverage 
problems, of course those are three pretty major cities. I suppose it 
would be important to find out what the coverage is like in the area you want to 
use it, pretty much the same as you would for a cell phone. I believe 
Blackberry uses Cingular Cellular's (formerly Bell South) 
network.

Monthly cost seemed pretty straightforward to me.

To 
each his own! I'm also a big fan of the PocketPC 2002 (I like the built-in 
VPN).

 without problems.  Their
 tech-support has been relatively good on the few
 occasions I've had to call.
  
 We have users in San Francisco, Baltimore, and NYC
 with no reported coverage
 problems, of course those are three pretty major
 cities.  I suppose it would
 be important to find out what the coverage is like
 in the area you want to
 use it, pretty much the same as you would for a cell
 phone.  I believe
 Blackberry uses Cingular Cellular's (formerly Bell
 South) network.
  
 Monthly cost seemed pretty straightforward to me.

 This is a bit off topic, but the company president
 is looking to buy a 
 hand held electronic scheduler/calendar.  He will be
 using Outlook 2000 on 
 his desktop and would like something that will
 interface with OL 2000.  I

Actually, there are two different signals that it can run on.  One was
Cingular, I think the other was Motorola.  They have an 85x  a 95x series.

hmmm...sorry for your bad experience.
I've never used one to initiate a meeting request (fortunately I don't go
to many meetings) but many of my users have done so without problems.
Their tech-support has been relatively good on the few occasions I've had
to call.

We have users in San Francisco, Baltimore, and NYC with no reported
coverage problems, of course those are three pretty major cities.  I
suppose it would be important to find out what the coverage is like in the
area you want to use it, pretty much the same as you would for a cell
phone.  I believe Blackberry uses Cingular Cellular's (formerly Bell South)
network.

Monthly cost seemed pretty straightforward to me.

To each his own!  I'm also a big fan of the PocketPC 2002 (I like the
built-in VPN).

  hmmm...sorry for your bad experience. 
  I've 
  never used one to initiate a meeting request (fortunately I don't go to many 
  meetings) but many of my users have done so without problems. Their 
  tech-support has been relatively good on the few occasions I've had to 
  call.
  
  We 
  have users in San Francisco, Baltimore, and NYC with no reported coverage 
  problems, of course those are three pretty major cities. I suppose it 
  would be important to find out what the coverage is like in the area you want 
  to use it, pretty much the same as you would for a cell phone. I believe 
  Blackberry uses Cingular Cellular's (formerly Bell South) 
  network.
  
  Monthly cost seemed pretty straightforward to me.
  
  To 
  each his own! I'm also a big fan of the PocketPC 2002 (I like the 
  built-in VPN).

 hmmm...sorry for your bad experience.  
 I've never used one to initiate a meeting request
 (fortunately I don't
 go to many meetings) but many of my users have done
 so without problems.
 Their tech-support has been relatively good on the
 few occasions I've
 had to call.
  
 We have users in San Francisco, Baltimore, and NYC
 with no reported
 coverage problems, of course those are three pretty
 major cities.  I
 suppose it would be important to find out what the
 coverage is like in
 the area you want to use it, pretty much the same as
 you would for a
 cell phone.  I believe Blackberry uses Cingular
 Cellular's (formerly
 Bell South) network.
  
 Monthly cost seemed pretty straightforward to me.
  
 To each his own!  I'm also a big fan of the PocketPC
 2002 (I like the
 built-in VPN).

 I tried to initiate meeting requests and the BB
 people told me that they
 were still working on it - yet sold me the product
 knowing I needed
 that. They also lied to me about coverage area and
 monthly costs.

Only 
reason I didn't make a firm stance on Pocket PC 2002 was that Blackberry has the 
"Push" technology. Executive staff demanded that they were pushed hot 
messages immediately. With the Pocket PC and VPN they would have to 
connect and check mail.

Title: RE: Palm Pilot Devices



You'll be just fine. the BB is certainly not 
a pocket pc. but it is a damn cool pager. and good for testing email 
when on site with a client. one word of caution set them to vibrate so 
they don't beep. And don't pull the quick draw routine with it, when 
talking to others. For some reason it really seems to piss off a lot of 
people. the best part is you can have secure communication from BB to BB 
if you use their pin # instead of the exchange server. It's good when 
you're pissed at the boss. or sending dirty jokes to coworkers. I was very 
happy with the performance when I had to use one.

Oh 
we didn't even go there!

Then there's peoplewho administer their exchange server using a 
terminal services client on their pocketPClounging intheir cabin 
in the wilds of Washington state

Can't do that with a Blackberry.

hmmm...sorry for your bad experience. 
I've never used one to initiate a meeting request (fortunately I 
don't go to many meetings) but many of my users have done so without 
problems. Their tech-support has been relatively good on the few 
occasions I've had to call.

We 
have users in San Francisco, Baltimore, and NYC with no reported coverage 
problems, of course those are three pretty major cities. I suppose it 
would be important to find out what the coverage is like in the area you 
want to use it, pretty much the same as you would for a cell phone. I 
believe Blackberry uses Cingular Cellular's (formerly Bell South) 
network.

Monthly cost seemed pretty straightforward to me.

To 
each his own! I'm also a big fan of the PocketPC 2002 (I like the 
built-in VPN).

  I tried to initiate meeting requests and the BB people told me that 
  they were still working on it - yet sold me the product knowing I needed 
  that. They also lied to me about coverage area and monthly 
  costs.

  Sure...with the Wireless Calendar conduit in version 2.1 (I 
  believe) of the client software you can respond to meeting requests

  I agree with Robert's assessment of Palm and Pocket PC 
  (Pocket PC 2002 looks pretty sweet from what I saw at 
  MAC). 
  
  What about a Blackberry? He can carry a fully 
  functional copy of his Outlook with him.

  Only 
  reason I didn't make a firm stance on Pocket PC 2002 was that Blackberry has 
  the "Push" technology. Executive staff demanded that they were pushed 
  hot messages immediately. With the Pocket PC and VPN they would have to 
  connect and check mail.

  Thanks for scaring me guys. I just ordered the server, BB 
  software and 5 units. I will say this much though: I have 
  talked to MANY IT people and most of them swear that Blackberry is one of 
  the greatest Email "toys" ever invented. Guess I will

No I mean create a meeting request. 

Either way I have used a Blackberry and frankly hate then. The 
only tech item I have come to hate. They are being sold via lots of 
misinformation.

OPINION: 
Palm= Ancient garbage. 
Pocket PC is a NASA Skunkworks device compared 
to a Palm. 
BUT: Pocket PC is heavier, battery life is 
far shorter. If he is only doing simple stuff (text email) 
Palm might be the way to go. 
Pocket PC Native: 
Word Outlook 
Excel PowerPoint 
IE (FULL not clipping) Voice recorder Natural 
handwriting VPN

My biggest problem with palm is the sync software was a pain to setup on
a secured Win2k workstation. You have to have admin privilages to
install, as it should be, but then you have to move shortcuts and other
stuff to the All Users profile. I have moved everyone I could off of
Palm and onto PocketPC's. ActiveSync is much more Win2k friendly. You
just install it and most of the time it works. I have had issues with
USB Sync cradles but I haven't had any complaints from my users in a
long time.
