Advantages: Powerful, fast, sleek Disadvantages: Getting programs into the system
...I have bought from the HP site.
Another problem with it is that its really hungry on power. I find it runs down its charge quite quickly. Its important that you get a case for it to stop it scratching, and get extra pens for it, as they tend to go missing, or maybe its just me.
I have it connected through my wifi and its superb little browser, both at home outside when I want to check email. Make sure if you use the client that you use an imap ... ...its good but it was HP for me due to the backup of HP and most importantly the WiFi capability and MS suite of software that came with it. You get Ms Word and Ms Excel, so you can read your docs on the run and also produce material which you can use on your desktop or note book later on. This is real power computing on the small manageable mobile platform.
I bought it in my local PC World, in Sprucefield. They were inexperienced and not really able ...

Advantages: Powerful, Full of Features, Mobile, persistant storage, good communicator Disadvantages: Standard Battery not the best around, has a technical problem (resolvable)
...After some assistance from HP we discovered that I had a faulty power supply at home and after reconciling that, was able to charge the ipaq. "So why did it go flat?" I hear you think. Well, the problem is a known one and is easily resolveable with a simple download from HP.
When the unit is switched on it works fine, add an SD card and that's where the problems begin. You will find the battery starting to drain, quickly. Even with life still in ... ...downloaded a flash upgrade from HP and installed it. Since then the unit has performed as it should have, and what a piece of technology it is. I have been able to:
- Save ALL of my contacts and calendar entries with the ability to back them up whenever i'm at home (via cable or wifi connection to activesync)
- Write documents
- Do monthly budgets in excel
- Play games
- Surf the net via wifi
- Bluetooth communications with my mobile phone

Advantages: Sturdy, good software, smooth link with Pc, fast, all features needed for a pocket Pc Disadvantages: Alarm problems
...decided to come across to Hp because of the ease with which word and excel documents will transfer onto it. The weight of it makes it feel like a quality product, and it was also good to have all the buttons where you can see them straight away without having to flip down the bottom like I did with the palm.
Because I use my Ipaq in a busy retail environment I immediately bought a metal case for it. I also added an SD card to add to the memory.
... ...again. I don't know why Hp didn't include a vibrate function like with my Palm and on any phone. This would have made reminders a lot more useful.
Overall I was and still am very impressed with the HX2490. I know most of the review has been a moan, but just look through the feature list to see what is included. All of the features work superbly, and do exactly what they say. Even in the bashing I give this device every day it has stood up very well, ...

Advantages: Large screen; excellent battery life; easy to use wifi and bluetooth Disadvantages: Bulky/heavy in pocket, not all apps work with Windows Mobile 5 yet
I bought this model because I wanted wifi for internet/email access on the go, and bluetooth to link to my mobile phone. The HX2490 has both and they are ridiculously easy to set up. The wifi connection takes a few taps of the stylus and bluetooth is even easier to turn on and off. Importantly the iPAQ clearly lets you know when either or both are on and it's easy and quick to turn them off again.
Once I started exploring the device I was amazed ... ...Palm based PDA. The Media Player in particular is great on long flights (I put some movies on an SD Card) and the audio and video quality is much better than I expected, and there is also a reasonable range of games.
As well as the SD card slot there is also a Compact Flash slot for adding a GPS receiver or other accessories and, of course, a 3.5mm headphone socket
This iPAQ comes complete with Office Mobile and the versions of Word and Excel are ...

ipaq hx2490 Review ofHP iPAQ Pocket PC Hx2490by
chrisw69
Advantages: Lots of features and wi-fi/bluetooth Disadvantages: A little expensive and bad battery life
I bought my PDA from ebay, for a discount price; I didn't want to pay a lot of money for a PDA and I wanted a really good one. The hx2490 comes with Windows mobile 5.0 which is the newer version of the windows CE operating system. The processor is slightly faster than it's predecessors and has wifi and bluetooth aswell. This means that you can quickly use any wireless station and hook into that network, or transfer documents to your phone or computer ... ...protective cover as well as many other cool gadgets like the docking station. I use my PDA every day and have had no problems with it, of course I have dropped it many times like I do many things and it still manages to work. I think I would replace it if I did damage it but I don't think I would pay the full price for one. Unfortunately the battery is very bad. My PDA is always not turning on due to having no battery power. This seems to be an issue ...
