Amazed Customer.......2001-03-06
Decent item, but caveat emptor.......2000-03-29
Maxtech went out of business on 4/1/00, so the warranty is worth about as much as the paper it's printed on. Needless to say, forget about tech support either. I had a question and a very bitter and surly, soon to be unemployed person responded.
The unit functions well and I've had no problems with it over the last 24 hours or so that I've owned it...only time will tell. No problem running any of the software that I've downloaded.
The contrast could be better and the backlight only helps in some situations...in others it actually makes it worse.
As a cheaper alternative to the more costly CE based devices, it probably serves alright. I'm certainly less inclined to worry about it getting heisted. The OS is generic (all of the CE's run on the same thing), so it might be a good way to decide if CE is right for you.
I prefer CE to palm, but others seem to feel just the opposite.
I'm a little disappointed in Amazon for not being a little more honest and coming right out and saying that the company was no longer in business. I probably wouldn't have bought this exact item, had I known that.
