- Don't Bother...
At first glance, the Zire 72 looks impressive and I was excited about all the new features. Then the fun started. I sync'ed with my existing Zire 31 and surprise; RealPlayer and the new 72 camera do not work. Oh well, press ahead. I set up the password security option on the 72 to kick in after 30 minutes of inactivity, power down, top off the battery and go to bed. The next day, I go to power up - blank screen (not a lick of juice in the machine). Go to Palm's support site and discover in the forums that this is a common problem. When you set up security with certain parameters, the machine drains its own batteries and goes dead. But the best part is that Palm won't acknowledge what is now an established firmware problem. Their response - Sorry not our problem (great customer support guys!). BTW, when I plugged this useless machine into the AC, I had to do a hard reset to get it working. You know what that means - all my programs, data and setup preferences LOST. Yeah, my Zire 72 is on its way back to Amazon for a full refund. Note to Palm - sorry, not my problem. PS Picked up the Dell Axim X30 in the meantime and it is SWEET. Kicks Palm butt and actually works as advertized. Thanks Dell.

- Great product
I recieved the Zire 72 for Christmas. I loved it right when I got it and I couldn't put it down. I upgraded from the IIIxe and I am so glad I did! The CD that comes with the Zire has the Documents to Go, which is already out of date, but whatever, it still works well! I've tried all of the programs on the CD, they are great, but they take up a lot of memory. One review said that there was a hiss in the background on the MP3 player, I didn't hear that though. The digital camera is good, but it does need a flash kinda. All in all a good product!

- Best PDA I've ever had the privelege to use
Received Zire 72 for Christmas, so can't beat the price! :) Regardless, I've got nothing but praise for the 72. Peeling paint problem appears to have been resolved in later revisions like the one I have.

Battery life not optimal compared to previous Palm units (I had a Palm IIIxe for reference - 2 AAA's lasted for weeks), but I've never run out during the day yet. Keep in mind that the newer generation of Palm devices have a LOT more drain on the battery - high resolution screen which is always backlit, a MUCH faster CPU, greater amounts of memory, multimedia applications, a camera and more.

The LCD screen is gorgeous. Easily the best LCD I've seen to date.

Camera takes adequate pictures in good light. Forget about taking night or low light pics.

Bought a 1GB SanDisk card for carrying data and MP3s around. Zire had no trouble accessing card and plays MP3s beautifully.

I charged it fully and let it drain almost completely for the first few times, and now I just top it off nightly.

Bluetooth sync with my laptop (via USB Bluetooth adapter) is flawless and speedy.

Only con in my opinion is the lack of a hotsync/charging cradle. I suspect someone (palmOne or a 3rd party) will step up to the task eventually.

Hint: The Zire 72 will charge ever-so-slowly over just a USB cable connection if left turned off.

- Problems w Audible Promotion
Note that at this time, at the beginning of January, Audible does not appear to be answering its phones. Individuals interested in taking advantage of the Audible promotion may wish to confirm that Audible is providing customer service, is answering its phones, and gives customers the ability to do things like cancel the service pursuant to the terms of service.

Oh, and the Zire 72 which I got through this promotion, had a battery problem so I had to return it and had to cancel the Audible subscription - but have not been able to get Audible on the phone.

- great lil device
well i currently got this for x-mas and love it! i was skepitical to get it because i read reviews about the paint coming off but they fixed the problem!but it is extremly hard to figure out how to download music since i use wmp and you can only use this with real one player but i figured it out and it was worth it! however this is expensive but i like having the camera with me at all times i got mine with a rebate and got 4 free games! If you are looking for a pda this is is pretty good but look around for a good deal on the price!;)
