Amazon.com Product Description:
If you're still using a paper planner, maybe it's time to catch up with technology and upgrade to the affordable and easy-to-use Palm Z22 handheld. It enables you to keep your entire day-to-day schedule and contact information at hand and in your pocket--no more flipping through multiple pages, looking for scraps of paper or keeping track of to-do lists. And you won't have to enter the same thing twice--once on the computer and once in your planner, as you can easily make updates on your computer and synchronize data to the Palm Z22 in just a minute or two.
This handheld features a 32 MB of flash memory (20 MB accessible for file and software storage), Palm OS 5.4 (Garnet), a fast 200 MHz ARM-based processor, and an internal rechargeable battery (that can be charged via the included AC adapter or via the USB cable connected to your PC).
Weighing just over 3 ounces and about the same size as a deck of playing cards, the Palm Z22 is compact and stylish with a white front and translucent blue backing. Small enough to fit into any purse, backpack or back pocket, it boasts a bright, 160 x 160-pixel color touchscreen display, which provides easy readability of names, addresses, and appointments. You can even color-code appointments for improved organization, and view and carry pictures of friends and family wherever you go.
Operating System and Software
The installed Palm OS 5.4 uses the intuitive and easy-to-learn Graffiti 2 writing software to input data into the handheld (as well as an on-screen keyboard). Windows users can synchronize their calendar, contacts, tasks, and notes with Microsoft Outlook. The Palm OS features the following organizer applications: - Contacts: Lets you store several addresses for each contact, and with new fields for more phone numbers, multiple e-mail addresses, instant messenger IDs, and Web sites.
- Calendar: Use the new Agenda view to see upcoming calendar events, tasks due, and important e-mail, and color-code your events to provide an easy way to reference your calendar in the Agenda, Day, Week, and Month views. Take more notes, or synchronize more details from your desktop, in the larger Memos and Notes fields.
- Tasks: Use tasks with alarms and repeating tasks to set reminders for important commients.
It also includes AddIt, a program that includes a variety of applications such as CheckSplit, Chess, Carb Counter and Solitaire. The bonus software CD-ROM has an eBook reader with three books and a dictionary, the powerOne Calculator (perfect for basic and advanced mathematics), and SplashShopper (a helpful shopping list application).
Compatibility
The Palm Z22 is compatible with PCs running Windows Windows 2000 (SP4) and XP (Outlook synchronization requires MS Outlook 2000, 2002, or 2003; sold separately), and with Macs running Mac OS 10.2.8 to 10.4.
What's in the Box
Palm Z22 handheld, USB sync cable, power adapter, 3-step setup poster, Graffiti 2 sticker, Software Install CD-ROM with Palm Desktop, Tutorial, Getting Started Guide, User Guide, and bonus software.

I would have rated the Z22 5 stars at the old price of $90-100. I cannot fathom where Palm gets off nearly tripling the price without changing the specification. Look what else you can purchase for $259! This is the end of the Z22, friends.
Palm relentlessly pursues mediocrity in quality and worse in service. The Z22 had to go.

There is no driver support for a Palm Z22 with USB connection and 64 bit Vista. Device will run on a 32 bit machine with Vista. Too bad support was dropped for this rather neat device.

Too bad this item is out of production. It meets my needs which are basic and simple - no keyboard, no texting. More is not not necessarily better

I originally bought one of these several years ago because I was looking for a handheld without all the bells and whistles most of them have. This one fits the bill. It's easy to use and synchs with a Mac or PC. The screen on it conked out after a few years, but I'm guessing that's because I carried it in my purse with just a screen protector on it. So I just bought another one with a plastic case and I think the screen will fair better. I the second one used because the new ones are quite expensive. Either way, I'd recommend this product.

Twice in the past year (not once but twice) I have gone into my office and clicked on my palm desktop icon only to find my calendar completely blank. No idea what appointments I had when - heart stopper!! If you don't sync your data every single day to your handheld device, you run the risk of losing all of your appointments. Not worth it - I'm getting a blackberry!! (Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me!!!)
