The battery life is EXCELLENT; even after extensive surfing for a couple of hours, there are more than 30% of battery reserve. I am now TOTALLY mobile; I never worry about draining my battery. I can work several days, before I think of charging my device.

The biggest problem is that when I remove the battery to reset the device because of a frozen program or WLAN problem, it usually HARD resets my iPaq! This doesn't happen with the original battery. It may need to be calibrated first, but I'm not sure that calibration will fix this problem.

Another obvious drawback of the size; the expansion jacket cannot be used, together with the CF slot and the extra battery. I didn't like it anyway, and it was very bulky.

Despite the battery protrudes from the back of the PDA, I got used to it, and it sits comfortably in my palm. However, being exposed to friction, the edges of the battery wears out and the white plastic under the silver paint is exposed.

Pros;

Excellent battery life, Practical for serious WiFi use.

Cons;

hard resets iPaq when temporarily removed, prevents using expansion packs and some accessories as metal cases.
