Advantages: Great build quality. good range of accesories Disadvantages: Battery life not great and battery built into unit
I have had my ipaq since early august. The pda has proved to be reliable and very useful. I use it on a daily basis and have yet to find any real problems.
The ipaq has one of the best screens of any pda and has 64mb of memory. You get pocket pc versions of most of the usual microsoft programs. Beware that you know that these are not the same as the microsoft aplications on the pc. They are cut down versions and although you can exchange ... ...the documents will keep the same formating if you transfer one written in Microsoft office. This is due to the limitations of memory in the pda. (This is the same for all pda's not just the ipaqs)
The aplications you get include:
Outlook: email, address book, tasks ect.
Word: word prescessing.
Exel: spread sheet.
Internet explorer.
as well as other small but useful utilities.

Beware that you know that these are not the same as the microsoft aplications on the pc. They are cut down versions and although you can exchange data between the pda and the pc don't expect that the documents will keep the same formating if you transfer one written in Microsoft office. This is due to the limitations of memory in the pda. (This is the same for all pda's not just the ipaqs)
The aplications you get include: Outlook: email, address book, tasks ect. Word: word prescessing. Exel: spread sheet. Internet explorer. as well as other small but useful utilities.
You can buy and download software from the internet including games, utilities and most other type of software that you may need.
You transfer the data between the ipaq and the pda via a usb or serial cable conection on the pc. The activesync software provided is easy to use and will transfer data between outlook and other programs automaticaly.
The good thing that HP/Compaq have done with their pda's is to make accesories that will work with their older pda's as well as the new models. This means there is plenty of goodies out there and if you upgrade in a year or two you don't need to replace all the accesories you bought for the old device.
I use a external keyboard and a sd slot jacket with my ipaq, this also includes another battery to extend the time between charges. I use a 1gb Ibm microdrive for extra storage.
The major bug bear of the design of the ipaq is the internal rechargable battery. If this fails then the unit has to be returned to HP for repair/replacement. The battery is a Li-ion type which keeps its charging capacity for a lot longer than the older nicad type.
The ipaq's are very well built and while the price's can seem a bit steep you get the quality that some other pda's lack.
I belive that the ipaq is the best selling of the pocket pc pda's and because they use the intel strongarm cpu you can be sure that most of the software you can get is compatable.(I have yet to find any software I have downloaded not to work)
The ipaq 3870 has built in bluetooth so you can connect to your isp using a compatable phone.(I use an Ericsson T68)It also have the usual infra red port.
The 3800 series has been replaced by the 3900 which has a faster cpu, and other enhancments. You can now find the 3800 series pda on sale for under £300.I would recomend the HP Ipaq pda's to anyone wanting a quality item. Mine gets a lot of daily use and so far I have not regreted buying it one bit.
Advantages: A pc in the pocket Disadvantages: screen difficult to see in bright sunshine
...little machine is no longer available new, certainly HP, who own Compaq , no longer have it listed to purchase as new in their online shop. (the 38xx series has been replaced by the 39xx) but many are available on eBay and similar, some with extras, usually around £200 mark. ...

Advantages: Does everything you need it to Disadvantages: Nightmare to set up Bluetooth dial-up (not necessarily a fault of the iPaq though)
...hardware providers (in my case Compaq and Nokia). However, thanks to a very helpful man on the data team at O2, I managed to get the two connected after about an hour and three atempts at different settings. If you're having problems, persevere - it's well worth it.
The Inbox is great as you can set up your POP3 settings and get email very quickly - but the Internet access is alot slower and I'd only use that in an emergency.
The battery is not ... ...into the mains - or in a cradle - when you're at your desk or at home. So worth having two! I'm lucky as I work from home, but if I didn't I would definitely get a 2nd lead or cradle.
The built-in case is also very useful - as the newer HP versions do not come with one of these - or a cradle for that matter. I think the older version is actually better - although a little larger and less suitable for slipping into a handbag or jacket pocket.

Ciao members have rated this review on average: helpful Review of Compaq iPAQ Pocket PC H3870
Advantages: A portable GPS for the price of a calculator. Disadvantages: Slow compared to the latest PDA's
Ive had my trusty IPAQ 3870, for almost 2 years now. At the time I paid £200 for it and now I see you can get them for about £40.
Its a great little machine. Its got Bluetooth, Infrared, a voice recorder, notebook, address book, calculator etc etc.
The best use that I have is as a Satellite navigation device. I hook it up in the car, connect it to a sat receiver (approx £30) and run some software called "Destinator" and it tells me where to go. ... ...other essential use is as a contacts book, I can sync it with my PC and update from outlook or just write on the screen with its letter recognition facility.
In Summary - An outstanding PDA in its day, it has'nt got any worse, just the competition has got better. Unbeatable for the price..... ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: helpful Review of Compaq iPAQ Pocket PC H3870
Advantages: Reasonably Light, Ergonomic, Easy to set up and use. Disadvantages: Screen can be hard to see in direct sunlight and smallish memory to start with.
My main use for the PDA is as a portable PC, laptops aren't all that easy to carry around and just not as easy as putting a PDA in your pocket or clipping it onto your belt.
The iPaq is a good all round PDA, it has all the software you need and any extra software is easily found and simply installed. I know this is an older PDA now, but it has a good system, runs very fast and is very simple to set up and use.
The number of accessories that are ... ...good investment. You can easily make it into a Sat Nav system or get it hooked up to the net via a Wi-Fi pack. One of the best accessories though is the foldable plug in keyboard, which makes typing so much easier if you aren't a big fan of the touch pad system that all PDA's have.
The iPaq also seems to be pretty robust, the screen is yet to be scratched (after a good two months use) and I've dropped it on a few occassions (don't try this at home) ...
