Handspring

Handspring (now defunct) was a PDA manufacturer that merged with palmOne in 2003. The PDAs made by Handspring were known either as Treo or Visor, with different versions of each available. The first Handspring product to hit the market was the Handspring Visor in late 1999 and was one of the first PDAs to use USB for synchronization which made it instantly compatible with the Mac OS. The different versions of Treo PDAs were: Treo 90, Treo 180, Treo 270 and Treo 300. And the different versions of Visor PDAs were: Visor Edge, Visor Deluxe, Visor Neo, Visor Platinum, Visor Prism and the Visor Pro. The last product to hit the market by Handspring was the Handspring Treo 600 (now known as the palmOne Treo 600) and was during its time one of the few quad-band GSM phones available in the US. As most of the electronics in Handspring PDAs are solid state they are very robust and last a long time therefore it is not surprising that the Visor is still in use today and as Palm OS is backwards compatible therefore many of the applications made for newer Palm devices work with the old Visor.

The following types of products are available at PDAaccessories: Bluetooth, Package, Leather Cases, Carrying Case, Chargers and Synchronizers, Stylus, Data Storage, Battery, Screen Protectors, Screen Cleaning Kits, Hands Free, Keyboards, Kits, Gaming Console Accessories, Booster Sticker, Antenna and Amplifiers, Gadgets, Cameras, Laptop Chargers, Laptop Keyboards, Wireless Cards and GPS Batteries, GPS Mounts
