PalmOne PalmPak Games Card (m125, m130, i705 & m500 series)

I am surprised at the bad ratings of others. Don't know why they are having problems.

This was a good buy for me.


Don't buy this unless you like to be outdated   January 15, 2003

Although the games on the card are good, most of the itmes on it, like Klondike and Slots are outdated. The games can not be moved off the card, and cannot be updated to the current version(s). You would be better off buying the games seperately.


Some fun stuff on this card   June 4, 2002

My favorite games on this card are Chroma's Backgammon, Checkers, and Chess. Slightly buggy in that I think the computer cheated once or twice with illegal moves, but that's rare. The pinball game is okay, though I worry about wearing out my buttons and there is only one playing board. The slot machine is too mindless to be very entertaining, and blackjack is only a little better. Bubblet is very cool -- FreeCell fans should like this one, and maybe other people too. Klondike is a good implementation. Sim City is okay but I haven't played enough to figure out the point (if there is one). Zap!2016 is a nice arcade style game, but diffucult to see on the monochome display. More games would have been nice.

I am very pleased with the game card. The choices of games are basic, but I'm not a huge video game lover and easily entertained. I especially like Klondike (Classic Solitare) and Bubble. These are similar versions of the ones that come with windows on your desk top. I have trouble sleeping at night so I play the games on my palm in the dark so as not to disturb my husband. (Make sure to turn off the sounds!) It is also a great way to pass time while waiting for appointments, etc. I have not experienced any glitches. The card has functioned flawlessly.
