The keyboard is easy to use with large keys that have a solid feel. It uses converters for file synchronisation, allowing you to edit Word documents and Excel spreadsheets. What sets the Psion and its Epoc operating system apart is its performance and efficiency. It runs rings around most CE devices in speed by using a highly optimised operating system rather than brute force. The Psion 5 processor runs at a mere 18 megahertz, making the device more power efficient than its CE counterparts.
Battery life is typically between one and two months.
Psion converts rave about its usability. An important asset while on the move. The Palm is the filofax of PDAs - really easy and intuitive to use. Using an efficient database model to store data, the Palm operating system is efficient on system resources such as processor requirements and battery power. This results in the great performance that, together with the device's ease of use, has won the devotion of millions of Palm-ers worldwide.
