April 23, 2003 - Palm today introduced two handhelds -- the Zire 71 handheld with a built-in digital camera and audio/video playback capability; and the Tungsten C handheld, Palm's most powerful handheld computer with built-in high-speed Wi-Fi connectivity.
The Palm Zire 71 Handheld
Bringing multimedia capabilities to the Palm Zire product family, the affordable Zire 71 handheld offers a built-in digital camera. Media aficionados also will enjoy listening to MP3s, watching video clips and carrying their personal photo albums wherever they go. The all-new sliding design hides a concealed digital camera for spontaneous photo capture, giving users the ability to capture life on-the-go.
The Palm Zire 71 handheld is available now for $299. More information is available at www.palm.com/zire71.
The Palm Tungsten C Handheld
The Palm Tungsten C handheld is Palm's most powerful handheld computer with built-in high-speed wireless connectivity to address what campus networkers want most in a handheld. It is Palm's first device to ship with integrated Wi-Fi, or 802.11b, for wireless campus connectivity. It offers 64MB of memory (51MB usable) to manage data-intensive applications; 400MHz of ARM processing power; and integrated, full-featured business applications, such as VersaMail 2.5 for email, and DataViz Documents To Go for efficiently managing Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint compatible documents.
The Palm Tungsten C handheld is $499 and is scheduled to be available on May 5. More information is available at www.palm.com/tungsten-c.
In addition to Palm's classic Date Book, Address Book, To Do List and Note Pad functions, both new products feature Palm's sharpest high-resolution color screen to date (320 x 320 transflective TFT); fast ARM processors; Palm OS 5.2.1; and Palm's dual-expansion technology, which includes the Palm Expansion Slot for SD Cards, SDIO and MultiMediaCard media, and the Palm Universal Connector for hardware add-ons.
