I am amazed and more than pleased with this device. The screen is crisp and clear. There are tons of Third Party applications and software to be found for this iPAQ and it's OS which is WM5. I start my day using the iPAQ 2496b as my back up... alarm. I am then able to go online via my home wireless network and get the morning traffic and weather reports. My iPAQ 2495b contains my daily appointments, contacts and emails from both my ISP and Web based accounts. I keep documents on my PDA including journals, invoices, letters and notes. I am able to view documents in PDF files including transit maps of the city in which I work. During my commute time I listen to music that I have downloaded into playlists from the Windows Media program. I sometimes use the time to play the occasional game of Scrabble or Backgammon. The expandability of the iPAQ allows me to look at photos taken with my digital camera as well as view PowerPoint projects that I have downloaded. The expandablity allows me add memory by means of a 2GB SD card and 4GB Micro HD. This supplies me with ample space to run programs, store jpegs and wmv files. The iPAQ 2595b has proven to be an extremely valuable tool in my daily mobile computing needs. I also am happy with HP's support team. Read more Less
