Read about the new LifeDrive
Have you heard about the new Palm Lifedrive? This gadget boasts a large 320x480 high-resolution color screen which can flip from landscape to portrait mode, a speedy 416MHz Intel XScale processor plus built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth wireless networking. The smaller-than-a-matchbook 4 GB hard drive is a Hitachi Microdrive, and it transfers data 30 percent faster than the previous-generation Microdrive. That means you can get to your stored music, images and data more quickly.
How much can you store? Well, PalmOne suggests that the 3.85GB of usable storage on the drive could break down to: 1,200 office documents; 6,000 emails; 1,000 photos; 300 songs; 2.5 hours of video; 50 voicemails; 10,000 contacts and 10,000 appointments. That's a lot of stuff!
Another way to look at the LifeDrive is as the iPod Mini of PDAs, but with the ability to do video, e-mail and lots more besides music. Additional expandability, if that’s not enough, comes via LifeDrive’s expansion card slot for SD, SDIO and MultiMediaCard formats.
