I have used this palmtop for the past one year to listen to music on the go and also to keep an mobile library of books for ready reference during travel and while at work. It has a great storage and obviates the need to buy another memory card. I also used it as a 4 GB USB drive and a storage for photos and videos taken from digital cameras. The great thing about this is the great storage and the wide screen. The palm was however a tad on the slower side on switching applications and of course the battery was not too great. In fact after one and half years of rather heavy use the battery is defunct.
