 Slow, for grandma only February 17, 2010
Thor Albro (Seattle, WA United States)
We bought this to keep up with emails while away from our business on weekends. This thing is NOT for anybody with anything other than an occasional email. The problem is that the service collects ALL your emails, even if you have already down-loaded on your home PC, and then laboriously downloads them - frequently crashing in the process. Just too slow and cranky for us, but might be great for an occasional light user.

Greetings,
I needed a device for my elderly aunt who kept having her phone disconnected for some reason or the other. I got this device setup with a yahoo email account and my aunt was off to the races emailing and "conversing" with her high school classmates and church buddies.
Best of all it prevented 20 voice mails a day :) checkin' in. Instead it's much more fun to email 20 times a day.
She had to quit sewing after 50 years but still can manage the keyboard on this device and gets along fine.
The folks at Peek have been great. I mailed it in for a software upgrade and they updated for free and mailed it back in a reasonable period of time and at no charge for return shipping.
Ashley in the Phoenix, AZ office was extremely polite, professional, had excellent product knowledge and handled my customer inquiry flawlessly. A better call center representative you will not find.
Now my aunt has a communication device while being snowed in and is not lonely any more. Before she knew it - she had joined the digital age - and embraced it. All because she was willing to Peek into the future.
Best Regards,
Charles R. Smith
 Terrible Product November 14, 2009

Besides the service being way overpriced, it's slow and takes forever to download. It also downloads all of your email, even that which should have been cleared from the server. Do yourself a favor and avoid Peek.
please explain September 9, 2009

Quick, cheap e-mail on the go August 27, 2009

I bought a Peek because I need access to e-mail on the go, but I can't see paying $30 per month for a data plan from my cellphone carrier. I upgraded to the Pronto firmware for free, which let me load all my e-mail accounts and gives me unlimited texting on top of that. Since I buy service in 3-month chunks, it costs about $17 per month.
I set up a ping.fm account so I can update Twitter from my Peek, and maybe the best thing about it is that I can quickly check my e-mail without getting trapped in the time-suck that is the Web.
