Advantages: Lots and lots of features, light, durable, easy to use (once you know how).
Disadvantages: Can be fiddly, menu's are not always easy to use.

...the HP GPS Navigation Kit you can even turn your iPAQ 914 into a Smart Travel Companion with Turn-by-Turn Navigation (no need to buy a TomTom then). And obviously no PDA would be complete without those familiar Windows Mobile® applications for organising your daily life. Something which you may not have thought possible was the inbuilt 3 Mega pixel camera - which can capture pictures or even take videos. Full specs for 900 series HP iPAQ 910/914 include: * Integrated Quad band GSM/GPRS/EDGE and Tri-Band HSDPA up to 7.2 M bps with: Integrated WiFi 802.11 b/g with WPA2 security Integrated Bluetooth v2.0 with EDR Integrated GPS navigation (Assisted GPS); * Windows Mobile 6 Professional, Mobile Microsoft programs included: Office Mobile, Office Outlook Mobile, Internet Explorer Mobile; * Marvell PXA270 Processor...

Advantages: Lightweight, small, comfortable, good sized screen, long battery life.
Disadvantages: Sometimes the screen can lose where the pointer is, but not often.

...This is the 1st pocket pc, i've went and bought for myself, but i have used alot of others through work before. I found the set -up stage and indeed the day to day use of this model to be really easy and precise. I use it mostly as a in-car navigator , used in conjuntion with tomtom navigation software and an in-car cradle. It has 152mb of storage built in, but this can be supplimented by use of an MMC storage card. Headphone jack, perfect for listening to mp3 or watching small films on the train. A good deal of software is also included within the package, such as: Microsoft Pocket Word Microsoft Pocket Excel Microsoft Outlook Windows Media Player MSN Messenger Pocket MSN HP Photosmart Internet Explorer Calculator Calendar Solitaire Jawbreaker Pocket TV Pro Aslo on the conectivity side of things, there is a great deal u can do...

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. When the GPS is in use, and any phone options are used / when a call is recieved (even using a bluetooth headset) the GPS looses all signal, causing several minuites of signal blackout 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... Read review

Advantages: many and many options of use
Disadvantages: 1.3 Mega pixel camera

...I have bought HP iPAQ 514 Voice Messenger 1 month ago and i am satisfied with them. This phone has all what i need and maybe more :-) The operation system of this mobile is Windows Mobile® 6 Standard. It easy to worh with it and you will learn it in few minutes.

The memory is 62 MB SDRAM and flash memory 128 MB ROM. Audio includes microphone, receiver, speaker and stereo / through headphone jack /. iPAQ 510 has 1 USB port and port for 2.5 mm stereo headphone. The micro SD card is integrated in phone.

Advantages: Small, Light, Fast Processing Speed, Fantastic Connectivity!
Disadvantages: Short battery life (although long enough)

...If you are looking for a new Pocket PC, you've come to the right place. The HP iPAQ is definately a first class product. The looks hardly need describing, see for yourself... it's beautiful. The simple design and smooth curves complement this fantastic device greatly. When I took it out of the box for the first time I could hardly believe how small and light it is. You hardly realise it is in your pocket! When you first turn it on you have to select various options (time, date, language etc.) but as soon as you have done that you are greeAted with the standard Windows interface (all of which is customizable). The programs included are the basic ones: Word, Excel, Media Player, Activesync and games like Solitaire and Jawbreaker (a personal favorite). Playing the included games really shows off the incredibly fast processing speed... Read review
