A couple of questions from a newbie

Hello all, I am planning on ordering a Visor Prism soon but I do have a couple of questions:

1. Is the battery replaceable and is it easy to replace?

2. What is the best keyboard for the Prism?

3. If I have Doc to Go 3.0 on a CD for a Palm that I owned, can I download it to the Prism?

4. How easy to use is the Memplug CF I Module?

5. How long does the battery last?

That's it for now. I appreciate all the support out there.

Let's see....

Yes and/ or no...It's whatever you choose.... You can replace the battery yourself if you want to break the warrenty...but to replace it "legaly", you would need to send the unit to Handspring.

2. What is the best keyboard for the Prism?

I don't know what other people think....but it has to be the Stowaway keyboard. If you look online....you should get it for around $79.

leave 3 and 4 to someone else.....

5. How long does the battery last?

Handspring claims it to be 6 weeks of "normal" use. For me, if u play games on it a lot....it lasts about 5-6hrs...but's that's for mine....mine has some sort of defect... (see post.."Please Help!)

Hope this helps....

2. What is the best keyboard for the Prism?

i have the stowaway and the snap and type...both are good i use the stowaway for meetings and the snap and type for the train

3. If I have Doc to Go 3.0 on a CD for a Palm that I owned, can I download it to the Prism?

if u use the same hotsync name s/b no prob

4. How easy to use is the Memplug CF I Module?

i had one it is easy but drains power like crazy...i ended up selling mine on ebay

5. How long does the battery last?

the charge lasts me more than 1 day (but i keep it in the cradle @ the office and at nite) but i use fast cpu to *decrease* the speed of certain applications to conserve battery when i am out of the office..
