Rating: - Works great, very durable
I have had this unit for several years now (3+ I believe). I work in construction and this unit has been amazingly durable, I had bought a leather case that stays on it all the time (except when its in the sync cradle) that protects it somewhat. This unit has been in 100 degree heat and below freezing temps, gotten rained on and dropped several times and just keeps on working. I recently started geocaching and I use it to keep up with the info on the caches and it goes with me into the woods and ... Read More
Rating: - VERY SHORT LIFE EXPECTANCY
This product worked great, however the touch screen began getting dead spots after about three years of seldom use. I would guess that continuous use it would be even less. Replacing the screen is the only solution and that costs as much as the product itself. I recommend keeping the warranty up to date or not buying this product at all. I don't think that three years is worth the money I spent on the product.
Rating: - Great little gadget
I purchased my hx2415 three years ago, and have enjoyed it on many long trips. It's ability to communicate via 802.11b, bluetooth or serial infared gives it great functionality. The SD and CF slots are a good way to store vast amounts of data without cluttering up the iPaq's limited internal storage. I use HP's bluetooth GPS along with iGuidance to help me navigate while I travel. My travelling MP3's are stored in a 2 gig sd card, and are easily accessed by the iPaq's Windows Media Player. The whole ... Read More
Rating: - A versatile pocket computer
I have had an HP 2415 for a year. First the bad news - the battery will drain if it is docked and no power is turned on - despite being set to go to sleep when powered. I have had to reload software 10 times because of this flaw.
The purpose of this review is to show what you can do with this little device if you buy the right software.
The whole reason for not having a combined phone and PDA is to get maximum battery power.
Having said that my main use is to sync ... Read More
Rating: - Battery Problems - Lost all data
This is my 4th PDA, and I have had it for about a year now. My first 2 was Palm devices - first a Palm IIIx and then a Vx. I loved the Vx for its small size, but after it died, I decided to go with a PocketPC for some of the features it offered. I got an iPAQ 3955 which I like alot, but the size was hard to get used to after the Vx. I still used it pretty heavily, and after 2 years I found I needed a device with built in WiFi, as the PPC2003 upgrade wouldn't let me use my WiFI card anymore. So last February ... Read More
