The release of the Palm operating system of new generation under number 5.0 followed by a release of its 5.2.1 version with a pleasant in all respects handwriting system and increased levels of data protection. Technique also did not stand still - have won universal popularity model with transflective type of display, and 16 MB-barrier here was about to be overcome. Indeed, a remake of the old model of mid-range level Tungsten T said long ago, but today Palm Inc introduced to the public the completion of the family of tungsten Palm'ov. Live to see the Palm Tungsten T2, we have not had a chance, but based on the first model, a review and press release the company, we try to tell what is a "concentration of power" from the Palm - is the motto of the developer is going to move the handheld.
Completion
The package includes the computer itself, a stylus, a plastic transparent cover for the screen, cradle, AC adapter, 2 CD with software, a description and a bunch of promotional and informational booklets.
Design and Ergonomics
First impression - yes, it is the same Tungsten T, which I saw half a year ago. The only external difference - it is a logo. Designed by developers did not change. All the same well proven metal casing (the color, though slightly changed). Dimensions and weight - are similar. A little unclear why the developers have kept the old domain Graffiti, as the new system of handwriting Graffiti 2 (better known as Jot) allows you to write in any part of the display. Y Tungsten C and Sony TG50, for example, the area handwriting is not physically. It would be more reasonable, if so keep the old design (and admittedly it is pretty good), say, extend display just due to this area (let it be like a Sony 320x480). While, on the other hand, fans of the old Graffiti will be satisfied.

Of the nice things is also worth mentioning that no longer have to constantly push the computer to enter the text you want (I suspect that most owners of new items will use the built-in physical domain Graffiti is very rare). That is why, in spite of the same design, we can safely say that the computer in general has become more compact:)
The computer implemented control strategy with only one hand. For this purpose the Five-way navigation key - a sort of joystick. If the device is switched off, then lightly pressed in the central part of the navigation buttons, call for a second time information, double click on this button to turn on the computer.
Using the navigation buttons can also trigger and control applications. For example, a two-second hold button in the down position will cause the software menu. Or another example: in the address book click on the right side of the joystick will cause the search function, pressing again will a list of possible connections (Bluetooth, phone, SMS, etc.).In general, conveniently enough, especially if the second hand is occupied by a bag or a phone number or if you're in public transport.
