Personally I like my E2. It works well for the price but it isn't without it's faults....These are the main issues attached to it... -The power button on the top is very feeble and prone to breaking, it's best not to use it ( thankfully this can be worked around via a simple free program which allows one of the front buttons to be used to switch it off) -Video playback is typically poor and glitchy without proper conversion. This isn't an ipod touch, the videos need to be converted for the palm screen but when converted properly (try VemoDe, totally free palm video convertor) they play very well. -The on screen keyboard shortcut doesn't work after a while meaning you have to use the character recognition, which thankfully works quite well!
But on the plus side, there are tonnes of free programs and games availiable for it, an excellent mp3 player which can play for a very long time before the battery runs out and all the usual facillities a pda has.
It's not perfect but is a pretty good piece of kit which is good value for the price!
