Palm掌上计算机历史最经典机型回顾
Palm掌上重月窗屣史最^典檄型回^
太平洋电脑网文/天空之城
从第一个真正意义上的具有palm操作系统的PalmPilot1000在1996年产生以来差不多整整
走过了7年,这7年间,palm操作系统在与wince的斗争中不断被完善,从1.0进展到了5.0。
直至今天Jpalm,sony»handspring仍旧不断开发出新的功能和特性的机型,2003就有十几
款新机型上市,引人注目的有sony的有着蓝牙,wi-fi和键盘:的ux50»handspring的tero600
智能手机,palm公司的TungstenT3,TungstenE等。7年间风云变幻,让我们通过palm历
史上经典机型的回忆,来看一下7年间的进展变化。
开山鼻祖---PalmPilot1000(1996)
图为:PalmPilot1000掌上电脑
显示屏幕:单色STN;16OX16O象素;2级灰度;无背光
处理器:M0T0R0IADragonball16MHz
操作系统:PalmOS1.0
RAM:128KB
尺寸:12x8.1x1.8(cm)
重量:162g
通讯:串口同步
提起palm我们不得不提起palmpilotiooo,那个第一部的palmpilot电脑使用的是Hawkins
和Dubinsky自己开发的PalmOS1.0操作系统,只有128K内存。那个机器开创了palm的先
河,尽管其销量平平,然而那个还算小巧、能与个人电脑同步数据,价格十分廉价的机器开始受
到了人们的关注。Pilot的功能尽管十分简单,然而它差不多具备了今天Palm的专门多特点,
从外型、按钮布局到手写识别系统。
真正意义的现代palm一一PalmIIK1998)

显示屏幕:单色STN;i6oxi6o象素;4级灰度;背光
处理器:MOTOROLADragonball16MHz
操作系统:PalmOS30
尺寸:12x8.1x1.8(cm)
RAM/ROM:2MB/2MBflash
重量:162g
外壳:硬塑料
通讯:串口同步/红外
98年,Palm公司公布了第三代掌上电脑PalmIII>由于Pilot是闻名的制笔公司PilotPen
的商标,因此Palm不得已把自己的产品重命名为PalmHI。PalmIII使用的是PalmOS3.0操
作系统,拥有2M内存和2M的FlashROM,用户能够升级操作系统。这是第一款拥有红外线
的palm机型,从此之后palm开始能够同手机和palm之间进行数据交换。同时PalmOS3.0
在底层的稳固性和易用性方面有了专门大的改善,各种应月软件开始大量显现。
然而7号电池的使用使本机器的外形和体积都大大增加,厚厚大大的机身使得随身携带并不
是一件专门舒服的情况。
顺便提一下palmIII对中文使用者来说是第一款真正用使用意义的机器,2m的RAM在装
入中文系统后还会有几百k的剩余空间,亲切的中文终于能显示在palm上面了。
轻薄漂亮一一PlamV(i999)
图为:PlamV掌上电脑
处理器:MOTOROLADragonballEZ16MHz
操作系统:PalmOS3.1
显示屏幕:增强的屏幕技术;加强型STN;16级灰度;背光;
RAM/ROM:2MB/2MBFlash
尺寸:11.5x7-7Xi(cm)
重量:113g
外壳:铝合金
电池:内置锂电
通讯:串口同步/红外
在工业上,visorDelux第一个推出usb的同步底座,让文件传输的速度有了一个质的提高。
另一方面handspring在visordelux上加上了Springboard扩展技术»不断显现了各种的
springboard模块如内存模块»minijammp3模块,sondgoodmp3模块,visorphone手机模块,
MagriPresenter2Go简报模块,eyemodule相机模块,Xircom56kmodem模块,XircomWIFI
模块,magcllangps模块,rcdmblade蓝牙模块»InnoPak/2v振动提醒加内存模块,专门值得
一提的模块的领域中也有西安的笨鸟benbird大侠开发的cf扩展模块,能方便将能够使用的内
存拓展到你的cf卡那么大,功能多样化的模块将visor的应用领域极大的扩展。
多彩天地——PalmIIIc

PalmIIIc是Palm公司2000年2月22日公布的最新产品,是该公司第一款带彩显的掌上
电脑。它的显现将黑白的palm代入了多彩的世界,一下palm的世界变得如此漂亮。
然而关于一个彩色的机器8M内存实在有点儿紧张。另外,彩色屏幕带来的不太长的使用时
刻,串口同步的较慢的同步速度确实是个问题。然而记住、它是第一款彩色的palm掌上电脑。
特立独行-handera33。
图为:Handera33。掌上电脑
妫理器:DragonballvZ33Mhz
操作系统:PalmOS352
显示屏幕:320*24016级灰度
RAM/ROM:8MB/2MBFlash
尺寸:12.1x8.1Xi.7(cm)
重量:167g
外壳:塑料
事实上提起palm我们就不应该不记得TRG,从一开始TRG就致力于将cf的扩展槽引入
palm。并推出了第一款的cf扩展槽的机器TRGpro,还记得那个红色限量版的机器吗?漂亮的
让人心动。2001年TRG改名为Handera,并推出了Handera33O»确实是那个16级灰度,
32QX24。辨论率,有着软手写区全屏手写的大机器,还记得看电子书时候它带来的惊喜吗?电
池的耐力也不错。此外它第一制造了双扩展,cf和sD.。另外还有一个优点确实是全屏的背光,
记得晚上使用palmIII时,手写区没有背光的苦恼吗?handera再也可不能有如此的问题了。
缺点确实是320X24。的屏幕可不是什么软件都能够使用的,开始时有点苦恼,要多试试各
种的软件,等到一切的软件都稳固下来后,handera33。但是日常办公的好帮手。
近于完美---tero90
图为:HandspringTero9。掌上电月卤
处理器:MotorolaDragonBallVZ33MHz

重量:116g

电池:内置锂电
通讯:USB同步/红外
Tero-Handspring一个新的系列机器,中规中矩的设计。然而难得的全面,该有的都芍了,
彩色屏幕,16M内存,SD卡槽,116g的重量。还有一个小键盘,打消新手对Graffiti的恐惧。
使用被动显示的STN屏幕,日光直射的时候比反射式的屏幕,如m5i5/T6i5要难读,刷新
率低,在动画中有明显的影子现象,图片不如m5x5或者T615细腻,然而大多数情形下有极佳
的色彩和亮度,假如你不玩动作游戏的话,他的表现甚至好过m5x5和T615。另一个缺点sd插
槽必须打补丁后才能够支持SDIO,
0S4能做好的,能做到的情况它都做到了。关于如此一个机器除了经典之外还有什么可说
的?
完美商务——IB515(2002)
图为:Palm515掌上电脑
处理器:MotorolaDragonBallVZ33MHz
操作系统:PalmOS4.1
显示屏幕:辨论率:160X160;反射式背光荣色屏幕/16位64K真彩;增强背光
RAM/ROM:16MB/4MBFLASH
尺尺11.4X7.9Xi,3(cm)
重量:139g
扩展:SD/MMC插槽
电池:内置锂电
通讯:USB同步/红外
拥有Palmm5i5就等于拥有了一切一几乎是一切。PALMOS4时代的完美商务机型,亮金
属色的机壳,简洁大方,易用。
提到palm的机器不得不提到sony,Sony在2000年获得了palm的授权,就像sony在其
家用电器中的表现一样,在palm上Clie更新太快了,让人都没有时刻对一个机型留下深刻的印
象,几乎没留下什么经典机型。几个有特色的机型差不多又有着不同方面的跌陷使得我不明白如
何对他们归类。如T415的烂屏幕,T615巨好的屏幕然而专门差的电池,n7xx高高在上的价格
都成为了你不明白是否应该选他们成为经典的缘故。
因此sony确实是sony,总喜爱把任何的东西打上自己的烙印,memorystick的犷展槽»
jog(转点通的滚轮),和弦铃声,看起来差不多上所有sony机器的特点,此外高分的屏幕,增强
红外的遥控乐趣,N系列支持的mp3,白色的金属外壳,看起来在palm的单•的商务面孔外增
加了许多的乐趣。
提到历史看起来就停不下了,有人说ppc是炫目的情人,而palm却是夫人,你如何想?期
望拥有自己的一台palm吗?等待着你,加入“胖”的行列!
