Advantages Great Features, easy to use
Disadvantages Weak technology, highly underpowered, too many faults
More faults than thought possible!
Im sorry to say that this product is a great idea, with many glitches, and HP havent been able to help me.Heres the Glitches:
The battery is bad fitting, causing a very short loss of power occasionaly, making the device OS crash.
The device has some hardware fault causing it to switch on every few minuites, even when not on charge.
When the device becomes warm (like on the dash being used as a GPS device, on charge) the charger continues to provide power, but the device refuses to take power, causing the device to loose battery power and go into hibernation when the battery reaches critical.When the device hasnt had its programs fully shut down (running in the background - the device is running low on resources) and a call is recieved, the answer key, doesnt work, meaning of course - a missed call (most annoying!)
On the positive side, the concept of the device is awesome, its functions are awesome, its just the pooled technology hasnt worked - it clearly wasnt tested before its release, and for me, was bought for about £1000.HP cant help, as I bought this in Dixons in Holland, and live in the UK, and the serial doesnt match up for their UK database - their customer support for other devices, is very good.
