The images look great if you re-download them into any of the Palm's popular photo album programs, which leaves us wondering why Kodak didn't bundle basic photo album features in their PalmPix application. Compared to other digital cameras, the PalmPix's images are sure to disappoint. Unless you're outdoors, white balance and contrast are less than satisfactory due to the lack of a flash. Image focus is a little soft and compression artifacts are readily noticeable, even at the higher-quality image size. However, the images can be valuable for business use, such as taking a picture of a whiteboard in a well-lit office, which is my favorite use of the PalmPix camera.
Battery life is incredible compared to other digital cameras.
