Advantages: Microsoft Office Mobile, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth & 624MHz Processor Disadvantages: Small Main Memory
The HP iPAQ 214 Enterprise Handheld is an advanced piece of kit which you can comfortably take with you anywhere you go, almost like a mini laptop! It actually runs on a 624MHz processor, I remember my first ever PC which was 133MHz, that really does put things in perspective.
The design is very sophisticated with a nice 4 inch TFT touch screen display which is an improvement from HP's previous iPAQ's. It has many I/O for headphones, microphone, ... ...new on the iPAQ using HP Smart connector which enables this unique business solution.

Advantages: Easy to use. Disadvantages: None yet. Will update.
I have just joined Ciao community to put the record straight on this PDA. A previous Ciao reviewer has given a negative review. I have only owned the PDA (HP iPaq 214 Enterprise Handheld) for two days. I believe I was one of the first in the UK to receive this machine as it became available from 25th January 2008. I was almost put off buying the iPaq by the other review here, but decided to give it a try. I am glad, as the PDA does everything a PDA ... ...other review here is definitely not for the iPaq 214. How did he get it some months before anyone else? The description bears no resemblance to my iPaq 214. The reviewer says the camera is appalling and defunct - it does not have a camera at all, so that clears that up. It does have 128 MB SDRAM and 256MB flash ROM, mine also came with 1GB SD card. His cost £250, I paid £222 delivered (ordered September 2007 from BT). It does not have an integrated ...

Advantages: Size, Functions, Comfort (both viewing and using) Disadvantages: Its nothing New its just really good at what it is
Loving the 214, simple interface, elegant and its a really nice size, i dont need a phone or a camra i have one allready. I want a PDA with a large clear screen, wirless and bluetooth, and have expandable memory. Simple answer its ticks all the boxes.
Ok maby it would be nice to have a manual in the box with more indepth infomation. but thats no technically a fault with the Item.
I think my only main fault with the item is the lack of more programable ... ...make up for this)
software wise its nice to have a devise with PDF viewer installed allready and fully surpoted DVD and video converting software availble for a nice price (save trying for find 3rd party stuff)
The size of the devise is its main pluss viewing any form of media or text is at a comfortable size, typing is easy (no need to play find the correct pixel for the correct letter). and it fits nicly into hte palm, granted anyone with smallhands ...

Quick review of HP iPAQ 214 Enterprise Handheld Review ofHP iPAQ 214 Enterprise Handheldby
sciguy
I got the HP214 after my Hx4700 fell apart. It is working great. I agree with the previous reviewer. Basically, if you want a tiny screened phone, buy one! if you want something that works well with MS Office, plays films on a decent sized screen, has a multiple of ports, can use Skype and is very fast, this is the one for you.
Pros: Base on HP 214 and HX4700 the build quality is much better.
The battery life is longer (2200 mAh compared to 1800 mAh).
WM6 saves Office documents as Ofice documents- no conversion needed.
Cons: Doesn't come with any backup software, so buy some with your free points.

I received the iPAQ 214 Enterprise last week. I have to say that as a seasoned PDA user, this is the real deal. It has a large clear screen making it easier to view apps, read and write emails and even play games. Like other iPAQ models it comes with both SD and CF card expansion possibilities, making it possible to add even programs. The larger screen probably does effect the battery life which when fully charged lasts me around 4 hours. It's a great device for those who want to keep a PDA seperate from a mobile. Unlike the 1st review mentioned, there is no camera. It is a good PDA and a great business tool. A worthy release by HP.
