HandEra 330: Best Price/Performance PDA available!

Sun, 29 Jul 2001 19:16:29 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pshan - I have owned several Palm PDA's, starting with the PalmPilot Pro (still have it), Palm III, Palm V and now Handera 330. I have decided to buy a non Palm Computing device because I believe that Palm has lost its way, and the competition has caught up or...

Perfect for its designed use.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pshan - Let me start by saying that this machine is by no means the most feature-rich laptop I have ever used. It is a subnotebook machine, meaning that it is smaller than a full-size laptop. Others in this class include the IBM Thinkpad 500 and Toshiba...

Happy days are here again!

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pshan - I am no expert in rating beers, so I won't be talking about palettes, finishes, etc. But I know what I like.

I went to college at Penn State University. Since that is not too far away from Pottstown, Yuengling was plentiful. I have tried...

Favorite movie in a time before people knew computer jargon.

Mon, 5 Mar 2001 14:59:19 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pshan - When this movie first came out in the theaters I absolutely HAD to see this movie. I had bought my first computer, a TRS-80 model I, in 1979 while in junior high. It started as a hobby and became a career eventually. I learned as much as I could about...

I got what I paid for.

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author pshan - I have owned a Deskjet printer since HP sold them. My first and only was a DeskJet 500. The 500 is quite a workhorse and still works perfectly, but it eats ink cartridges if not used daily. So I tired of wasting these cartridges and decided to move up...

My new favorite Anime.

Mon, 26 Feb 2001 17:00:58 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pshan - While still in college, I met a group of people who were big anime fans. Any time a group gathered at his apartment, there would end up being an anime marathon. We'd watch Akira, Ranma, Bubblegum Crisis, Dirty Pair, or maybe a movie. We would ALWAYS...

Hewlett Packard ScanJet 3400C Flatbed Scanner: Great for occasional use, not heavy use.

Sat, 24 Feb 2001 20:42:17 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pshan - I bought this scanner when Wal-Mart had a ridiculously low price for it. I had said for a long time that I wanted a scanner to archive some old family pictures for my genealogy project (100+ years old). I have used old HP scanners before (Scanjet 5...

It's the best I have seen, but not great.

Tue, 20 Feb 2001 18:51:35 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author pshan - I got a cover for my Palm V after dropping a Palm III and having the flip cover open during the fall and scratching the screen. I won the Palm V later, and decided that a floppy cover just wouldn't cut it. I REALLY like the small size of the Palm V with...

This book changed my life.

Mon, 19 Feb 2001 17:44:55 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pshan - I first read this book after reading "The Emperor's New Mind" by Roger Penrose. That book left a bitter taste in my mind. This book left a sweet taste in my mind, and helped me "step outside" of myself.

First, both books used the same...

Great first flatscreen experience

Mon, 12 Feb 2001 14:30:55 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pshan - I bought this television about 15 months ago after seeing it at a coworker's house. The picture was sharp, the sound was great, and DVD's looked wonderful, even in letterbox.

When I moved into a new house, I had a 27" TV that was dwarfed by...

I'd be lost without this thing.

Fri, 19 Jan 2001 02:22:21 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pshan - I have been using Palm products since the PalmPilot Pro, including the Palm III and Palm V. I was happy with my Palm III until I won the Palm V I have now at a company picnic. Before that I was using a Casio BOSS. I run my life on this thing.

Good laptop. Lots of features.

Mon, 8 Jan 2001 18:51:27 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pshan - My title is nondescript, but that's about how this laptop is to me. That is a good thing. I don't want to reiterate the product literature with specifications. I have used a few laptops for work purposes, and this one works as well as the best I've...

A worthy upgrade from AoE-I

Mon, 8 Jan 2001 18:11:21 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pshan - I have seen Age of Empires II (AoE-II) in stores for a few months, but when I saw a mail-in rebate that put my final cost to $20, I had to grab it. I have AoE-I, and I like it a lot, so I had high expectations for AoE-II, and I was not disappointed.

Roller Coaster Tycoon For Windows: This game is TOO entertaining.

Mon, 8 Jan 2001 16:35:37 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pshan - I bought this game after seeing someone I know rave about it. I got hooked. When I installed in on my Pentium 200, I learned how to play it quickly and was succeeding at each level until about 2/3 of the scenerios were complete. Then my wife...

I really wanted to like this car.

Mon, 8 Jan 2001 13:27:32 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author pshan - In 1992 I bought my first new car, also my first stick shift. It was a Suzuki Swift. I later learned that this is the same car as the Geo Metro. I called this car "the mighty moon rover" because it could go over cavernous terrain (potholes)...

Most important movie of the 1990s

Mon, 8 Jan 2001 12:31:57 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pshan - The title sums up my opinion of this movie perfectly. I had read this book when it was first published years ago. This movie collapsed several characters into Palmer Joss, and the pod was for 10 passengers instead of just one, but in spite of the...
