Hewlett-Packard IPAQ RX-5935

Advantages: Small size, excellent quality of build and sound.
Disadvantages: Poor software.

...I purchased my Compaq PA-2 as an impulse buy on ebay. After seeing it listed, I did a little research on the Internet and found its specification to be most agreeable for only £40. Size: This little player has excelled at replacing my Walkman. For starters, it is incredibly small at about half the size of a packet of cigarettes.

At the £50 mark there is this player and a Hewlett Packard. Above these, from £60 upwards the players obviously start improving, with the better players coming in at around the £100 mark. These ones often... Read review
