The Palm V — The Beautiful PDA
The Palm V, released in February 1999, was widely regarded as the most elegantly designed PDA ever made — a slim, anodised aluminium-bodied device that looked and felt more like a premium consumer product than a piece of business technology. Designed by IDEO, the Palm V’s metal case, recessed stylus, and 11mm slim profile made it genuinely pocketable and transformed the Palm platform from functional to desirable. Its rechargeable lithium-ion battery charged through its cradle rather than requiring replaceable batteries — a practical advance that made it ideal for frequent travellers.
