[SLUG] Palm Zire vs Psion Revo
Does anyone have any recommendations, good and bad points, linux compatibility (obviously the Zire is compatible from Graemes' recent post)... I was going to buy a Zire today, but my dealer has offered me the Revo for the same price...

I don't think they actually make the Revo anymore, go to there website and check - I think it may be old stock only. Also my Revo broke after 4 months, but then I was fairly rough with it. >Does anyone have any recommendations, good and bad points, linux >compatibility (obviously the Zire is compatible from Graemes' recent >post)... > >I was going to buy a Zire today, but my dealer has offered me the Revo >for the same price... > >Adam. > > > >-- >SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ >More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug > -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug

The Revo is definitely on their website, and is still being sold throughout australia. They have, however, brought out the Revo Plus which is the advanced model...

Re: [SLUG] Palm Zire vs Psion Revo
I have a Revo and it's a great machine. My wife has one too. She is more gentle than I am, and her Revo has lasted 3 years now without problem. Mine had a battery recharge problem, but I had it fixed, though while it was being fixed I got withdrawl symptoms and bought a Revo Plus, so now I have a spare Revo (which I'll hang onto). I have not got synching working with my Linux boxes, mainly because I'm lazy. Has anyone on the list got a Revo to synch with a Linux app? Anyway, it is true that Psion have stopped design work on new models, but AFAIK they are still making, shipping and supporting the Revo [+].
