      Great PDA once you get a New Operating Environment
    Review created: 05/12/06(updated 11/23/06)

    I bought this PDA back in 2001 at an auction house, and was a little dissapointed with the lame features, and plain looking interface... it got shelved.

    Now if I sound too enthusiastic, it is because I don't need to buy a new PDA, but can "upgrade" this PDA to be just as good as a "modern" PDA.

    I was surfing the net, and came across a website (www.be300.org) and a new Operating Environment (OE) called BAS BeShell. I was so happy because finally someone had created a solution to the watered down OE "Top Menu" from Casio. This new OE acts and looks exactly like Pocket PC 2002/2003, and it is now possible to:

    *See your appointments, tasks, and date the moment you turn it on
    *Watch movies on it like an iPod video (DivX, XviD, Avi, Mpg, etc.)
    *Create and edit Excel documents
    *Create and edit Word documents
    *Create picture slideshows with music
    *Use it not only as a PDA, but an MP3 player as well
    *Write (print or cursive) across the whole screen and it will transcribe it for you into text
    *Use Pocket PC programs on it (I am using MS pocket streets 2006)
    *Use wireless Compact Flash cards for internet or network access (I am using a D-Link 660W CF card that is 802.11 a/b)
    *And you can do so much more!

    If you are thinking about getting one, do not let one pass you by; grab one of these PDAs, and install BAS BeShell. Once you realize that BAS BeShell functions like MS Pocket PC 2002/2003 and you can run all of your programs on it, you will not be dissapointed!

    ***For more info and to download BAS BeShell copy and paste below, and no I am not advertising crap, just sharing the knowledge****
