+6 Feet More Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 (edited) I won an eBay auction for a lot of 3 Palm Vx (8mb) mono units. I'm currently using one for paperless caching -- the ONLY way to go, BTW -- and the other two are not getting used at this time. Both units are used -- but fully functional. They show normal/minimal wear. Screens are not scratched, but there are a few minor scuffs on the back and/or the bottom of the unit around the connector. Both come with a serial synch cradle (however, there is no A/C power cord). I bought mine on eBay for ~$8. One unit has a balck metal case to protect it while out in the elements. The other unit has the standard leather(?) flip cover. I have close to 300 caches on my unit and haven't even begun to touch the memory! Buyer's choice for $20 (includes shipping). Check out my eBay feedback (ID: warthoglvr) Interested? Contact me at: Edited January 11, 2006 by 6 Feet More Quote Link to comment
+skinny 1 Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Are the units still for sale? Quote Link to comment
+6 Feet More Posted January 17, 2006 Author Share Posted January 17, 2006 I still have one unit left. Anyone else interested????? Quote Link to comment
+imfrog2002 Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 (edited) I would be... does it have PC connectability? I don't think that I can buy it yet, but I would like to see about putting it on some kind of layaway. I'm new to GC and I'm young enough to still have to beg by parents to get something. If you would be willing to hold it for a while, I would probably be able to beg enough! EDIT: My dad brought up a question that I'm PRETTY sure that I know the answer to, but he wants me to ask anyway... Is it an EXTENSION for a Palm, or is it a stand-alone unit that you can use with ABSOLUTLEY no other things? Edited January 17, 2006 by imfrog2002 Quote Link to comment
+6 Feet More Posted January 17, 2006 Author Share Posted January 17, 2006 I would be... does it have PC connectability? Is it an EXTENSION for a Palm, or is it a stand-alone unit that you can use with ABSOLUTLEY no other things? I would be... does it have PC connectability? Yes, it has a serial connector (9-pin). For my Win XP machine I purchased a USB-Serial adapter and connect via USB. Is it an EXTENSION for a Palm, or is it a stand-alone unit that you can use with ABSOLUTLEY no other things? This is an actual Palm unit along with the synch cradle that it came with. As stated in the original post, it needs an A/C cord to charge the unit ( a full charge can last more than a week of normal usage -- even more for paperless caching usage). So far, I don't have any other interested parties . . . but money talks! Quote Link to comment
+imfrog2002 Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 Okay, I'll be letting them know, also the A/C cord is NO problem We have about 10 of them around, if it doesn't work, I can find one. Also, a week is perfect for the charge because I go on boy scout camps for weeks at a time, and it would only be on for a little whiole at a time. *starts begging* I'll let you know if they finally give in!

+6 Feet More Posted January 17, 2006 Author Share Posted January 17, 2006 (edited) UPDATE: The two Palm Vx units have been sold to members. However, I alo have a Sony Clie -- monochrome screen, 8mb onbard memory, Palm OS, two Memory sticks (16mb & 8mb), leather case, and screen protector installed. Synch and charge cables included. Will also sell this unit for $20 (includes shipping to anywhere in the CONUS). Let me know if you are interested. Edited January 17, 2006 by 6 Feet More Quote Link to comment
+imfrog2002 Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 (edited) I'm still interested, but we can't afford it right now. We're having car trouble and it could cost up to $1000. We could probably get it mid to late February but, like you said, money talks, so... I would be willing to pay $30 if you could hold it until I can get enough from some jobs that my mom wants me to do. It WON'T be longer than the end of February, she finally guaranteed it.

+I.R. Geonut Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 I'll take the Clie. What's the model # and can I PayPal you the payment? Oh how's the battery and scratches? Quote Link to comment
+6 Feet More Posted January 17, 2006 Author Share Posted January 17, 2006 (edited) It's a Sony PEG-S360. There is minimal wear on the outer casing (cosmetic paint rubbed off one corner). The screen has had a screen protector on it and is in great shape. Battery life is decent. It holds a charge well. I don't use it on a daily basis to be able to give you a more detailed response than that. Edited January 17, 2006 by 6 Feet More Quote Link to comment
+I.R. Geonut Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 Ok where do I PayPal you? (If I can) Quote Link to comment
