Excellent Tool/Toy

Pros: Wireless connectivity

Cons: Sometimes it seems confused and you have to soft reset it.

I got it for work but now I carry it everywhere. A great PDA with lots of storage space, but I particularly appreciate the WI-FI which allows me to pick up and respond to my email remotely. (Careful, I found out the hard way that most places like McDonalds and Starbucks charge for the WI-FI service). The screen brightness and colors are better than anything that I have seen from Palm. I put a 1GB SD card on it and have plenty of space. Eventually I purchased a GPS for it which works great. When I called HP to see if it was GPS compatable, the tech told me that it was not, but then called ma back 30 min later to tell me that he had erred and that it was in fact compatable with the GPS. I call that exceptional service. I was sent email about updated GPS software but I could not get it to work. The orig software works fine though.
There is a bit of a learning curve to get started. The still camera is great but as the last reviewer mentioned, dont be shaky!. And dont forget that it also has a movie camera, and sound recorder.
The transcriber lets you write anywhere on the screen in script (no funny character codes), and it translates to print characters.
I havent had any prob with battery life. I love it. ...
