What to expect from a Handsprind VisorNov 09, 2009
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R2WMMZ3XBDVCPR The game subhunt is included with the Palm Desktop software that comes with the Handspring Visor Prism. As you can see from the video, the screen is very clear and easy to read. This handheld can offer lots of fun Atari classic style games that come in handy when your stuck at the airport. The more features you add, the more you can take full advantage of your Handspring visor.
I bought my Handspring Prism for less at an refurbished electronics store. Mine was new out of the box. I had no idea that this was going for as much $150.00 online! So the price being offered here is a real steal. No replacement for your laptop, but it can be a very useful tool, if your willing to spend extra and get the springboard modules to make these units extra useful. One of my favorite features is, unlike windows, Handspring Visor Prism remembers your last task so you don't have to start all over again in contacts, memopad, notepad,Games Etc. The prism actually remembers where you were, and takes you back right where you left off, in a task. That's a feature I would love to see in a Windows computer.

3 years with my PrisimAug 30, 2004
I have had my Prisim for 3 years now, The hard shell cover has allowed me to carry, (and sit on )it for all of the 3 years. The 8 meg is plenty for normal use.
It is in use every day, and backedup/charged just as frequently.
I know there are more advanced units out there, with more features and such, but I dred the day I will need to find a replacement that can measure up to this one when it is gone.
I never leave home without it for sure!

Brilliant value for PDAphone (Visor Prism+Phone)May 21, 2004
I've been using Visor Prism + Phone for about 2 months now, I bought it from a local store which suprisingly still had some stocks and guaranteed the item for 1 year.
Overall, I found it very very useful. I'm not a heavy PDA user, so mainly I use it to read e-books, see photos, games. Visor's 8 Megs is more than enough.
More about the phone, I can't tell how much I admire the modularity of Springboard. Handspring engineer have done great job. The phone and sms function work perfect, compared to the more pricey Tungsten W.
It's better than Treo 270 I assume, on color display (Treo has 4096 while Prism has 65K) and of course using Visor I don't have to worry about flip hinge crack that often happen to Treo user.
Some drawbacks that I found is that battery drained quickly, I also notice that there are some dead pixels in the unit I bought, and last but not least it's quite heavy to carry.
Based on the above, I still think that this product is a great collectible item,worth the price, and everywhere you carry it people were just curious to know. It's a bit rare that to some it's more intriguing than even the popular O2 XDA. Well done Handspring!
