Palm
stretches the possibilities with the Tungsten T5, the first
handheld from Palm to utilize flash memory. In addition to a
groundbreaking 256 MB memory, the sleek, slim Tungsten T5
features a high-resolution 320 x 480-pixel screen, a fast 416
MHz Intel Xscale processor, Bluetooth wireless connectivity, and
Secure Digital memory card expansion slot.
And, of course, the Tungsten T5 features Palm's suite of
information management applications, the ability to edit Word
and Excel-compatible files, and synchronize with Microsoft
Outlook (Windows only).
Internal Flash Memory - Built
for today's mobile professional, the Tungsten T5's 256 MB memory
actually provides 215 MB of user-available memory (55 MB for
built-in applications and 160 MB of internal flash drive
memory).
Connect it to your PC or Mac and use
it as you would a USB flash memory drive to transfer data and
multimedia files from work to home. To access files stored on
the handheld, simply select Drive Mode on the handheld and plug
the included HotSync cable into a USB port.
To add files, just drag and drop them
from your PC desktop to the new File Transfer application
(installed with Palm Desktop; Windows only). A live desktop
window gives you instant access to data and information stored
in the handheld's internal drive--without the need for
synchronizing the handheld to move files.
Multimedia - The included
RealPlayer for Palm OS enables you to listen to MP3 music files
stored on optional expansion cards via the built-in speaker on
the Tungsten T5 or, for stereo sound, using optional stereo
headphones or ear buds. The updated Media application lets you
view (and show off) transferred photos and videos.
Display - Unlike the Tungsten
T3, which required you to slide the handheld's bottom open to
activate the screen's landscape mode, the Tungsten T5's screen
offers widescreen viewing at all times.
The bright 320 x 480 transreflective TFT color display supports
more than 65,000 colors. You can easily switch between portrait
and landscape view, as well as open an active input area at the
bottom of the screen.
Connectivity and Expansion - With
the built-in wireless Bluetooth connectivity, you can
synchronize the Tungsten T5 with a Bluetooth-enabled computer from
across the room (within a range of 10 meters, or approximately
30 feet). But that's just the start.
Using a compatible Bluetooth-enabled phone, you can send and
receive email and connect to the web, send multimedia (MMS) or
text (SMS) messages, and even automatically dial any number in
your handheld's Contact's application. You can also synchronize
data the "old-fashioned" way via the universal connection at
the base of the handheld.
The Tungsten T5 uses Multimedia Card and Secure Digital
expansion cards, which instantly add software applications,
additional memory, large databases, and more without taking up
built-in memory space.
Operating System and Software - Veteran
Palm OS handheld users will immediately notice the new Favorites
view, which provides easy access to the applications, files and
folders. The installed Palm OS 5.4 also introduces the Files
application, which enables easy navigation among folders and
files. It uses the intuitive and easy-to-learn Graffiti 2
writing software to input data into the handheld (as well as an
on-screen keyboard).
Windows users can synchronize calendar,
contacts, tasks and notes with Microsoft Outlook. The Palm OS
features the following organizer applications:
-
Contacts:
Lets you store several addresses for each contact, and it
adds new contact fields for more phone numbers, multiple
email addresses, instant messenger IDs, and a website for
your contacts.
-
Calendar:
Use the new Agenda view to see upcoming calendar events,
tasks due and important email, and color-code your events to
provide an easy way to reference your Calendar in the
Agenda, Day, Week, and Month views. Take more notes, or
synchronize more details from your desktop, into the larger
Memos and Notes fields on the handheld.
-
Tasks:
Use tasks with alarms and repeating tasks to set reminders
for important comments.
Additional Software - The
Tungsten T5 includes Documents To Go 7.0, which provides the
ability to create and edit Word and Excel compatible files and
view and carry PowerPoint files (in native format) with no
desktop conversion required. The included Software Essential
CD-ROM also contains eReader, Acrobat Reader, Solitaire, and
Audible Player for palmOne handhelds (Windows only).
What's in the Box - This package contains the
Tungsten T5 handheld, built-in rechargeable battery, carrying
case, USB HotSync cable, power cable, stylus, CD-ROM with Palm
Desktop 4.1 software for Windows and Macs (as well as bonus
software), and printed Getting Started guide.
Macintosh Users - While the Tungsten T5's
new File Transfer application is a Windows-only feature, Mac
users can simply mount the handheld as an external drive, and
then proceed to drag and drop files from the Macintosh Finder to
the handheld. Note, however, that the Tungsten T5's Palm OS
environment is unavailable when connected in this mode.
Description:
With 256 MB of storage, the Tungsten T5 handheld from palmOne
lets you carry more and do more. Word documents. Spreadsheets.
PowerPoint presentations. Photos. MP3s. The works.
And because it's flash memory, information
stays protected, even when you're on the move and don't have
time to recharge. Better yet, the stunning 320 x 480 color
display lets you see more in both landscape and portrait modes.
But the real beauty of the Tungsten T5 handheld is you can
transfer files and folders back and forth to your desktop, and
even use it as a flash drive with another computer.
