Advantages: Features, well made, size & weight, value for money Disadvantages: HP customer services, location of SD card
...years ago I purchased a HP ipaq 4150 pocket PC which served me very well in that space of time. The day I bought it I threw my pens & paper out the window & my life became better organised than ever. However, the software was no longer compatible with my home computer (Vista) & I was fed up of carrying around a mobile phone & a pocket PC all the time. I wanted something that integrated them both & recently started looking for a Smartphone.
I have ... ...The specifications of their new HP ipaq614c Smartphone were just what I was looking for & I started to track down a reasonably priced one.
P.A.Y.G. or contract?
HP in the UK don't sell their products via the large phone companies, that appealed to me as I preferred to use my P.A.Y.G. SIM card from Virgin. I'm not a heavy mobile user but the main reason I wanted a Smartphone is for the PC as well as being able to use the phone when necessary. This ...

Quick review of HP iPAQ 614c Business Navigator
At first I was delighted to receive the answer to my prayers... but then reality dawned...
poor battery life ( a day if you are lucky)... awkward to send texts (loads of unnecessary keystrokes) ... MMS a nightmare, using the web too much trouble to even bother...
Also had data loss issues....
in addition i've been trying to get response from hp customer support... that is even more unreliable than the product itself! ...
