The Palm LifeDrive’s most important feature is its 4GB microdrive. It’s a first in the Palm-OS world and is huge compared to anything Palm had to offer before. Now you can store video, play music files and view more images.
The device is powered by a 412Mhz CPU and runs on the Palm OS 5.4 codenamed “Garnet”. All the information is displayed on a 320×480 pixels LCD screen that’s unfortunately not as cool as the 480×640 display of recent PocketPCs.
All this storage is not free. Firstly, the battery life is drained by the micro drive (a drive like that spins at 3500 rpm). Secondly, the price is expected to be fairly high.
