  Palm Tungsten E - PDA Reviews by Mobile Tech Review
Enter the Tungsten E, which is only a hair larger than the hallowed but aged Palm V and m500 series, yet comes with the latest Palm operating system, an MP3 player, a fast ARM family processor and a good dose of memory.
The Tungsten E has an oblong 5 way directional pad that's easy to operate, though there isn't much tactile feedback, and the down direction is harder to press than other directions.
Sega Action Games, which don't run smoothly on the Tungsten T or Zire 71, don't run terribly fast or smoothly on the Tungsten E. The Tungsten T3 or the Tungsten C, with their 400 MHz XScale processors, are the best bet for that particular game suite.

The buttons on the front of the Tungsten E are flat, and flush with the case.
The E buries the needle in the bang-for-the-buck-ometer.

 Palm Tungsten E Reviews. PDAs Reviews by CNET.
Palm's Tungsten E is aimed at budget-minded mobile professionals, especially those still tapping away on a trusty Palm V or Palm Vx.
The Tungsten E's silver-and-fl design is reminiscent of that of Palm's earlier M500-series handhelds.
But while those PDAs suffered from lackluster displays, the E's sharp, high-resolution, 320x320-pixel screen is the same version found on the Palm Zire 71, and it's on a par with Sony's best efforts.

 Palm Tungsten E PDA | The Register
The result is the Tungsten E, Palm's cheapest business-oriented device yet, and the true successor to the old m515 and the V series.
If the E's processor isn't exactly top-of-the-range, the 16-bit 320 x 320 transflective LCD certainly is. As we noted with the Zire 21 and Tungsten C, it's a great-looking display with a superb viewing angle, and in a PDA that's more important than CPU horsepower.
The E is significantly lighter than the T3, and we suspect simply uses a smaller battery, hence the shorter operational duration.

At 4.6 ounces, the Tungsten E is lighter than its forbearers despite being about the same dimensions as the m515 (4.5 x 3.1 x 0.5 inches).
The ultra-slim Tungsten E isn't as curved as its m500 or V series predecessors, but we found the gentle slope near its base to be quite comfortable in the hand.
The Tungsten E is not too expensive, has all the basic functions I wanted in a PDA, and not a lot of frills (except the MP3 player, which was actually what I was looking for when I decided to upgrade my old Vx).

 Brighthand Reviews the Palm Tungsten E
If the new Tungsten E handheld from Palm were a Sue Grafton novel, it would be titled "E is for Economical." And as we all know, it's all about the economy.
The Tungsten E measures 4.5 inches tall, 3.1 inches wide and 0.5 inches thick, and weighs 4.6 ounces, making it approximately the size of previous Palm V and m500 series handhelds.
However, if you're itching to become wirelessly connected to the Internet, the Tungsten E may not be the right device for you.

The Palm Tungsten E is intended as a low-end business unit to supplement Palm's high-end models.
The styling is a cross between the Tungsten T2, and the old m500 series.
