The craziest thing of all is that this Palm PDA was released 6 years before the original iPhone. They came a long way in terms of technology in the 2000s.

Using a 22 year old Palm PDA is an odd flex. For 2001 it was high tech to have handwriting recognition in your pocket, now it's basic and 10,000 times better. You'll want to break the Palm in half before you've finished writing your name. It's that bad...

We look back on iPods with nostalgia. Listing to music on an iPod is still a good experience, they've aged very well in that regard. The Palm m125 PDA experience however, has aged like milk. Nothing about the user experience comes close to any modern device.

This palm was released one month before the first ever iPod, so they're comparable in age. To be fair the original iPod was $150 more expensive. This palm cost $250 in 2001 and the iPod at the lowest capacity cost $399.

Palm was a company that created PDAs which are "Personal Digital Assistants". The Palm branding still exists, but the original company does not. If you're interested you can read more on the palm inc wikipedia page linked here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palm,_Inc.

This is a Palm m125 released in September of 2001 and it cost $250.
