New Toy!

Post by Spyder »

I've got a new toy.

I'm posting this from my new Palm Lifedrive.

Yay for wi-fi hotsync!

What audio formats can it play? just mp3 or can you install other programs for more format support?
How is the screen resolution?
Battery life?

MP3 as standard, although you can get other players that will do ogg and all the rest. Looks like those cost though, I haven't done much searching to see if free alternatives are around. One thing you can get is MMPlayer which will let you play DivX. The Lifedrive has a 4gb HD.

The resolution's somewhat low: 320x480, although this was done on purpose to maintain battery life. The display's pretty sharp though.

I haven't fully run the battery right down but after a day's worth of taking notes at work, browsing SDN and downloading files from my network through wireless, playing with the bluetooth link and playing MP3's for a couple of hours the battery was showing at just under half.
