Here’s a wikipedia history of what is still considered “the most reliable handheld computer ever made” by users – the HP 200LX Palmtop. The AA battery life stated is not accurate, as we know that two AA batteries can last weeks on this machine.
It’s amazing that after after 16 years, this piece of technology is still preferred by its users over any current device! WHY is the question. In the near future, we will post answers from long-time users of the HP 200LX Palmtop. If you’ve used this device, please leave a comment, sharing with us what you find so useful about it.
Before Usedhandhelds.com Inc became its own company in August 2011, it was a department of Thaddeus Computing, Inc. Thaddeus Computing was the publisher of The Palmtop Paper, which was a magazine dedicated to users of the HP Palmtops (95lx, 100lx, 200lx, 1000cx). Through Usedhandhelds.com, we still buy and sell, as well as repair the HP 200LX Palmtops! Customers have been with us for close to 20 years now, and they’re still as devoted to this beloved piece of technology! AMAZING!
