Reviews of the Garmin iQue 3000

CNET Review
The Good: A nicely designed PDA, the Garmin iQue 3000 comes with a sensitive GPS receiver. It also has maps of North America and Puerto Rico, with a Micro SD card to hold it all. The device runs Palm OS 5.
The Bad: The Garmin iQue 3000 lacks Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. It also suffers from design flaws, sluggish performance, and subpar battery life.
The Bottom Line: The Palm-based Garmin iQue 3000 is a competent organizer and navigator, but it's marred by mediocre performance and lacks some features that put it behind the competition.
