Dingostar Posted February 22, 2008 at 03:16 AM Report Posted February 22, 2008 at 03:16 AM Is it possible to buy a second hand Palm such as a Treo 650 in Beijing? Here in Australia they sell for about the equivalent of 1,000 RMB on ebay and I'm wondering if I should get one before i arrive in China or get one there. Here they will not have the CJKOS or PenPower installed, but I could get that in China somehow. I would be using it mainly for Plecodict and phone. Would appreciate any advice. Thanks Quote
muyongshi Posted February 22, 2008 at 07:57 AM Report Posted February 22, 2008 at 07:57 AM Just an opinion but I try to stay well away from second hand as they are prone to have many problems and you can't always know before you get them and could easily wind up getting screwed. But with my opinion out of the way check out taobao.com or ebay china Quote

I saved a considerable amount buying my Vario III (also known as the kaiser or tytn II)... so I would look at getting new... agree with the points made re second hand... Quote

Don't bet on getting CJKOS/PenPower in China. All the Palms have it preinstalled, so there is no market for buying it as an add on. The best place to get these are on the web. Quote
