Summary: I LOVE my TX!!!
Comment: I've had about seven PDAs over the years. I've had the Palm TX for a year & a half now and simply love it. Honestly, my life is pretty much in this thing. I keep track of all kinds of information including the drugs my family takes, when I need to refill my elderly mother's pill boxes, grocery lists, etc. I don't know what I'd do without it.

Summary: Good, but flaky.
Comment: I had previously owned a Palm Tungsten E which was really a nice PDA but it's memory was just too small for my needs so I gave it to a relative and purchsed a T/X. Bad Move.
The unit has some very good points. It's fast, has an excellent display and comes with great software. My problem is the touch screen. The screen on my original T/X was damaged so I sent it off to Palm for repair, paying full price for the screen repair. What followed was an exercise in pure frustration. I would get a unit back from Palm (6 units in all), it would last about 2 - 3 months and then the digitizer would go out rendering the touch screen useless. Each time I sent it back I would be without my T/X for a couple of weeks. After much complaining, they finally sent me a unit that held up, to just one week after the warranty ran out and then it's digitizer went out. Now I'm looking at paying Palm, or another service company, to replace the digitizer. Supposedly there is an aftermarket glass digitizer that works better than the plastic one that Palm uses.
Just understand that as good as the T/X is it does have a problem with the digitizer. And even purchasing an aftermarket alignment program didn't help mine. You can to the Palm Forum and check it out yourself.

Summary: I Love This Thing
Comment: I love my Palm TX. I've had it for a month now and I haven't had not one issue with it. It does exactly what it's supposed to do and it does it well. It's the perfect size and one of the best things about it is it's large screen. And you can't get that with the phone Palm's. The only thing I would add to it is vibration and customized tones for the alarms.

Summary: Beware-Windows XP Media Center Edition is NOT supported by Palm!
Comment: Palm will not support its product if you try to install it or synchronize it with MS Windows XP Media Center Edition (MCE). I was unable to make it work, despite the varied fixes I found on the Internet. The Palm technician was NOT helpful, except for the fact that midway in our conversation he said that Palm did not support MCE installations. Palm claims compatibility with Windows XP, but it will not support XP with MCE. Thank goodness that Amazon is willing to let me return my Palm TX, so I'm not out any money. But thanks to Palm's refusal to mention MCS incompatibility, I am out 100+ hours trying to make this work, along with the hassle to both Amazon and me for having to deal with a return. Beware! Bravo, Amazon. Pooh-Pooh, Palm.
