Reviews of the Palm Tungsten C

CNET Review
The Good: Built-in Wi-Fi; built-in keyboard; much improved screen; fast processor and lots of RAM; great browsing performance.

The Bottom Line: Audiophiles may be dissuaded by the lack of an MP3 player and stereo sound, but business users will fall for the Tungsten C's blazing performance.
