Great Book for Non-techie
Are you looking for a learning resource for handheld computers, but are intimidated by technical jargon and written instructions? Unlike most other technical publications, this book offers a basic understanding of the Palm/Handspring PDA without resorting to confusing technical instructions. Each page has one or more graphical image(s) of the handheld screen followed by a minimum of instruction. The author allows you to work through the book at your own pace, one step at a time, in the privacy of your home. This book is aimed very directly at the newby, non-technical user. There are other handheld computing books available that would better meet the needs of the experienced handheld user.

Palm & Handspring PDAs for Visual Learners
As the title states, this book is designed for visual learners. The style and the layout of the book includes clear and concise screen shots of various PDA devices. By using minimal text, readers should be able to easily follow the examples of the various PDA tasks. This book would be particularly helpful for self-directed learners and people like me who do not have a lot of time to read a huge book or manual in order to learn how to use the basic features of a PDA. The book would also be very useful in workshop or other training situations, partucularly for novice PDA users.

Number One Guide for Palms and Handspring
If you want a book to teach you how to use your Palm or Handspring, you have found it! Recently my school district purchased thirteen handspring neos for our teachers. It was my responsiblity to train these teachers. Visibooks Palm and Handspring PDAs for Visual Learns was a lifesaver. The book has great pictures and takes the user step by step through learning process. Needless to say, I quickly learned all the featurs of the PDA's and was able to teach others using this book. The troubleshooting section is also very helpful when you are unable to hot sync. If you own a Palm or Handspring, I would recommend that you purchase this book to learn to all the features of your PDA.
