BoxWave Palm Tungsten T3 ClearTouch Anti-Glare Screen Protector (Single Pack)

• Winner of Handheld Computing's Top Award!
• Super clear and packed with numerous features
• Anti-Glare, Dust Repelling, Fingerprint Free, and Improves Handwriting Recognition
• Washable and Reusable, ClearTouch Anti-Glare protects your Palm Tungsten T3's sensitive touchscreen against Scratches

I have to caveat this review by pointing out I purchased the product to cover the LCD screen on my metal detector--not a PDA. Nonetheless, the purpose the protective screen serves is very similar.

Because mine is a non-standard use, I had to slightly trim the protective sheet to fit my screen. This went without a hitch and the screen cut cleanly with sharp scissors. I then applied the protective screen to the LCD, and it virtually disappeared--very nice. I think it will function as promised, and the non-glare quality will be welcomed in the field.

The reason I have not rated the screen higher is that the price is appalling. It's a thin little piece of plastic with some adhesive on one side, over-packaged with a lint-free cloth and a piece of rigid cardboard for smoothing out trapped air bubbles. Give me a break!

I was looking for a stylus and a laser pointer that wasn't too expensive. This one fit the bill. I did have to press a little harder for my iPad to recognize it, but it's not inconvenient. The only comment I have is that the buttons for the led light and the laser pointer are very close to one another. Sorta akward feeling, but I really only use it for the laser/stylus purposes anyways.

I bought this extended battery for my aging Dell Axim X50v. The battery life is now many hours compared to one hour that I had before with the OEM Dell battery (granted it was 7 years old). It gave new life to my X50v which I'm enjoying more than ever. Don't hesitate making the purchase and the store ships quick. I had to remove the foam tape inside the battery cover because it cause a "Battery Latch Opened" message to appear, occasionally. Not problems afterwards, battery still fits tight and no more messages appearing. I peeled and saved the foam tape just in case. I was very pleased with product and the store's service.

I bought the same size battery from ebay, but it had dead spots in the battery. This works great. No problems.

For those who still maintain their Axim, this battery, for an acceptable price will give more time to use the Pocket PC without concerning about the power chords. The unconvenient is that the battery are big and has a extra volume on backside of the thin Axim X50. Only for those who wants to stay with their old gadgets in shape.

Acer Iconia Tab A100-07u16u 7-Inch Tablet (16GB)

• Android Honeycomb Operating System, NVIDIA Tegra 2 Dual Core Mobile Processor
• 1GB DDR2 Memory
• 7 HD Multi-Touch Display: (1024 x 600) resolution, 16:10 aspect ratio
• Wireless(802.11n 2.4GHz only), 5MP Rear Facing Camera, 2MP Front Facing Camera
• Weight 0.92lbs

This is my third Android tablet. My first was a very low budget tablet, the Archos 7 Home Tablet, the second was the Archos 70 Internet Tablet. I was looking for a tablet with more features, most importantly a rear camera and a GPS, but I didn't want to spend $600.

When I rate anything, I rate it based on what is being promised vs what has been delivered. So although I may mention cons in this review, it still scores a perfect rating because those cons are disclosed up front and I wasn't hit with any curve balls.

cons:

-No kick stand. I loved this about my first two tablets and I missed it on day 2 with this tablet.

-Short battery life. I am used to a 7 hour battery life and this tablet cuts 2 hours off of that.

-New OS version brings some apps not being ready. Not the device's fault, but it is still a bummer to see a Force Close.

pros:

-Honeycomb. My other two tablets were 1.5 and 2.2, so this is an amazing experience in comparison

-Price. This is an AMAZING deal considering it is competitively priced but has so many features that you would expect from a premium tablet

-GPS, gyrosensor, light sensor, rear camera, front camera, 1ghz dual core processor, 1 gb ram

-WiFi is super powerful in comparison to my other tablets.

-Very fast and responsive

Screen:

I wish the light sensor would kick it to full brightness more often, but I just turned the auto off and keep it at 50% brightness. The screen doesn't have the best viewing angles, but that is typical with the screen type. However, the display is super sharp and looks great!

WiFi:

When sitting at my desk, I was at maybe 5% reception for WiFi on my old tablet and I often dropped the connection depending on where it was sitting on my desk. With this tablet, I am about 50% reception and I haven't dropped yet. This WiFi is MUCH better than what I have seen before in other tablets.

Battery:

This tablet isn't for everyone because of the battery life. On travel days, it is really going to get to me. I plan on buying a battery charger to juice it up on heavy usage days, but I don't think I will hit empty that often.

Overall, if you want a 7" Android tablet that gives a great experience, this is for you. I can't stress how happy I am with my purchase and I think I will be sticking with this tablet for a while.

Edit (5/24/2012):

It's been a while since this review and there have been a lot of changes since then. Earlier this month, ICS Android 4.0 was released to the device. The system does appear to be snappier after the update, but there has not been an impact to battery life. Unlike when HC was a new OS, I have not had a single app that doesn't run correctly on ICS, so the transition was a lot smoother.

I'm very happy with this purchase. My advice is to read all the reviews, because they are very informative and may point out something that for you is a deal breaker or shows it's a must have. For me, it's the latter. I teach dance and am a musician, and I actually first looked at this product to replace a lost ipod nano (!). Compared to the ipod, this is an entirely different creature; it's obviously more like an ipad. However, one of the best things, compared to the "i" products, is that the memory is upgradeable. Another bonus: the price point is a heck of a lot lower, but this is a quality device.

If you're familiar with Android (I have an HTC Droid Incredible), it's great to have the real Android market open to you (and not some pared down version beware of imitation "Android" devices!), even though I've found a few apps that have issues (not everybody plays nicely with Honeycomb). The video quality is great, although you'll quickly learn to lock the screen so the image doesn't keep shifting from portrait to landscape if you tilt the unit slightly. The speaker quality is fine for average use. After three weeks, I'm still fighting with the keyboard more than I'd like; it's very sensitive and easy to hit carriage return without meaning to.

I have to admit, the battery life is disappointing, especially when my ipad user friends brag about their toys, but there are many things you can do to improve it:

+ set screen brightness and timeout to lower than defaults

+ I've found that having open mail accounts takes a lot of energy. I set them up, but when I turned off the sync, my battery life improved tons. I can reactivate the sync to use them, but I get mail on my phone and computer. Do I really need it on the tablet too?

+ I do use a task killer, and I set it on SAFE (as opposed to aggressive) and to kill apps automatically every half hour. Lots of apps (weather, news feeds, facebook, even clocks) check in with the web regularly.

As far as I can tell, the big cons are the battery issues. Let's face it, 4-5 hours is short. I get more use, because of a light usage pattern, but it can go down pretty rapidly as I do use it. The guy on a total rant in his review regarding the charger unit does have a point in this day and age of "folding" plugs, and charger cords doubling as USB connectors, this is not a power supply you can throw easily in a bag. It's a bummer. And it's an even bigger bummer you can't currently {ar ar ar} get a car charger. [BEWARE of USB car chargers advertised on Amazon as working for this unit; you cannot charge via USB, A100s only power up via the proprietary Acer plug. I asked at Radio Shack, it's an Acer thing...] So, it's not too much fun to have to travel with your charger. Quite a few reviewers mention the screen as a problem. While it does have some angle-related limitations, it's easy to optimize the angle and I'm using it in class, hand-held, in varied lighting conditions.

Finally, the Poetic case Poetic(TM) Slimbook Leather Case for Acer Iconia Tab A100 7-Inch Android Tablet Wi-Fi (Black) is a useful and economic accessory I highly recommend.

My husband bought an 8GB on a Black Friday special and is mostly happy with his purchase, except for battery life. He paid $199.

UPDATE: July 2012

I traded in this device. I could not get around the horrible battery life. For all the cool things it does, no battery life and such a horrible, bulky charger (and no car option) I just realized I wasn't really using the unit. I've ordered a Google Nexus 7: lower price point, updated Android, and a battery that performs a whole lot better.

I have 2 tablet PC, IBM X60Tablet and Fujitsu p1610. One is 13 inch so it's not really UMPC. Fujitsu is 9 inch, but since it's convertible (has the keyboard with monitor turning), it's thick and bulky. Also battery last only for 2 hrs on Fujitsu. I wanted a thinner smaller device that I can carry to local coffee shop and browse internet.

Acer Iconia A100 is perfect because not only it'll be easier to carry around, but has full HDMI output so that I can use it on my bigscreen TV as a media player.

Here is what I think about the tablet after 2 days of use.

Likes -

1.Portable size yet big enough screen for movie viewing

2.FAST!!!! CPU and wifi.

3.Great OS I can even print to my Epson all in one printer!!!

4.Dual camera with one 5 MG pixel

5.Familiar Google web browser that allow you to download pictures

6.Tons of free apps.

7.No problem with music and HD movie no need to convert files so far. I played all movie files on my hard drives. No more iTune, which means I can access this device and load music/movie from any computer. yeh!! Basically use it as external memory card.

8.HDMI output to TV

9.Very responsive touch

10.Built in GPS Once set destination when I have access to WIFI, off line GPS has no problem pointing direction while I'm driving. New Google map will let you download 10 mile radius of area onto cache map. I was able to use it off line for about 25 miles once I setup the route on WIFI.

11.Great as an eBook reader

12.There is a free app which let you use this tablet as a remote keyboard and mouse for my desktop or media pc. Great for controlling my media PC. Since it's wifi I can control my desktop even outside of my house. Only problem is that I cannot see the big screen tv (media pc)...

13. Use it as a note taker for my meeting no more lost note pad

14. Market place released the updated Kindle app. Works great!

15. Can be setup as a media server. I can stream media(movie, mp3, etc.,) to my PC wirelessly while my kid is playing Angrybird without any studder. pretty cool...

16. I downloaded one of the GPS program that one of the user recommended for free from Android market Awesome. better than my TxxTxx.

Wish list(not the bad list for I have not found anything bad yet).

1.gets bit warm when I'm holding-it could be heat from my hand.

2.Better battery life. It last about 5 hrs, but with all the option like GPS, Bluetooth, and CPU power, Apple iPad would have last similar 5hrs, so not so surprising.

3.Home button is kinda sensitive and sometimes it gets triggered while using the tablet

4.Video recording is not great under low light.

5.USB Host I don't think I cannot connect USB card reader to read my Compact Flash cards

6.On screen keyboard is bit smaller than iPad's when in portrait mode... But iPad is 10 inch.. so not really tablet's fault.

7. Would not play Netflix. I can access up to the screen where I can select the movie, but would not play. I think there only a few device that play Netflix, so hopefully Netflix will release new version of the app. The twick with one of the file you found on internet does not work for me...

We have Apple iPad which belongs to my wife and the kids, and I don't get to play with it hardly....: It has amazing screen, but it's 10 inch and way too big for me to carry around anyway, and NO GPS and NO Flash.

Overall I'm very pleased with the purchase and have been carrying with me pretty much anywhere I go it actually fits in my short's and dress pants pocket... but probably not my jean pocket...

To the person who only gave the A100 a 2-star I would disagree and comment as follows:

His comments:

"Inside this tablet, you'll find basically the same guts as in every other current android tablet, from 7" to 10". It's running the latest and greatest release, which makes allowances for smaller tablets, so the awkwardness of the 7" Galaxy Tab is gone. The Tegra2 processor and graphics mean it's just as fast as the big boys. Unfortunately, all this hardware and software goodness has been paired with an inexcusably bad screen. The viewing angles are incredibly limited. If you hold it in portrait mode, the angles are so bad that you can't look at the whole screen without part of it being a bit color-shifted. If you hold it in landscape, with the home button to the right, and tilt it back a few degrees, you get a perfect display, but that's literally the only position in which the screen looks nice.

I would not recommend this product to anyone, and I would not buy it again."

So the screen isn't IPS it isn't advertised as such and given that a tablet is meant for personal viewing as opposed to group viewing off angles the viewing is perfectly fine, as the critic notes above. The screen resolution at 1024x600 is excellent and colors are vivid and crisp.

Here is my review :

Great device well built, super fast, feels good in the hand and Honeycomb 3.2 is so slick compared to either Froyo or iOS makes our iPad seem so last year and much though we are devoted to our Samsung Galaxy Tab 7 Wifi the Acer Iconia A100/Honeycomb is in a different stratosphere.

Kindle app now works if you download version 2 version 3.01 on Market crashes at this time but I have tested this and it works great

Download free Kindle app for Android at Freeware Lovers

It is true that battery is rather poor at around 5-6 hours but I can live with this because the A100 with Honeycomb 3.2 absolutely crushes any other 7" tab

See other reviews here

And finally let's remember the great price point $329.00 for 8GB and $349.00 for 16GB

I just bought this great little tablet and I love it. I have been using an iPad for about a year and got so fed up with no flash and the fact that you have to have iTunes on you computer. Now I can put what I want in my tablet without having to get Steve Jobs permission. The screen resolution is beautiful, the touch control is very responsive, and the processor is really fast. I gave the iPad away, gone out of here, history.

The first thing the A100 asks you to do is connect with your WiFi. Connection went perfect the first time without any trouble, unlike so many personal WiFi devices on the market. It comes in a 10" model as well but I like the 7" format better for my needs. The 10" size like the iPad was OK but each to his own.

Acer is a well known brand and I have been using Acer for some time now. I have an Acer laptop and an Acer desktop PC. I have never had any problems with either of them.

3 Pack (Red/Black/Silver) Aluminum 4.5" Capacitive Styli for HP Touchpad

I have too say I was disappointed in these stylus pens..They do work but you have to use to much pressure to make them work.I tried them all on 2 different tablets and they all required to much pressure to be comfortable to use..And the hassle of returning them for the price paid was to much so I guess i'll have to eat the loss.

Also the seller was realy slow on delivery..I did not use express delivery because I knew they would probably come in an envelope in the mail...But 12 days..Meh...Live and learn...

Product does not work very well. Works well enough for $3 but it not very precise. Ok if you just want to try it out for a toy but not if you need it for anything important.

PalmOne III & VII HotSync Cradle

• Uses HotSync technology
• Extends battery life
• Replaces or complements the HotSync cradle that comes with the Palm III or VII handhelds
• Supports optional Mac platform adapter

There really isn't too much to say about the cradle. Drop in the Palm, hit the button and it syncs. However, save yourself a few dollars and buy the serial cable instead. It is cheaper, more portable, and most importantly for me, easier to plug into my Palm because I keep it secured in a carrying case.

You can't really say much about this. If you have a Palm, you know exactly what it does and how it works. I just needed one at home and one at work (like everyone else does) so this did the trick. Wish they were available in the same color as my IIIxe, but it doesn't really matter all that much.

When I bought my Palm III from a friend I found out that he negleted to give me the dock station or anything more than instructions meant for another palm pilot. (I was screwed over) And I want to buy a dock station for my palm pilot. When I got this it was very simple to use. And with a download from www.palm.com I was able to connect my computer to my palm pilot. I love it.

Read Best Reviews of BoxWave Canon EOS Digital Rebel XSi ClearTouch Anti-Glare Screen Protector (Single Pack) Here

Applying the screen protector is simple, but it is difficult to keep lint off of the adhesive side. I actually had to clean the protector, according to the manufacturers clean-up procedure, before I could apply it for the first time... and I thought that I was being careful. It is clean now and it attached just fine.

I don't know why the product has the wording anti-glare in the title, because I think glare might be worse with the protector on. The screen is definitely not as clear with the protector on, but maybe its better than looking through a scratched screen because you had no protection.

It covers all of the lcd screen, but not all of the black border around the screen. That is probably a good thing though because otherwise it would make it difficult to not have overhang if you were a little crooked with your application.

BLACK For HTC EVO Shift 4G Rubberized Hard Case Cover

• Custom cut to fit your cell phone seamlessly
• Light weight and durable
• Easy snap-on installation
• Full functionality while in case

Since its been only a month or so that the Evo Shift came out, there isnt too many accessories you can buy yet except for the super expensive HTC brands and such. So I decided to try this case out, mainly because of the price. It came pretty quickly, around 2 business days. Its not too cheap feeling, and it looks quite good. Fits perfectly on the phone!

The outside of the case has a good very thin texture that helps you grip the phone, but its not sandpaper-ish, nor is it really smooth like plastic. There are two pieces that fit on the phone, one on the front and one on the back. They both snap into place pretty easily, but I needed to take out the battery to activate the phone, and it took me a minute to take the back off. Luckily, im not planning on taking the back off again anytime soon, but it is a bit hard. Just make sure you look at it and find the best place to start the removal.

All the buttons, and the headphone jack, and the camera openings are perfectly made, no interruptions in accessing anything. Just to clarify, this case will not interupt the sliding action of the phone at all. And also slips right into my pocket very well, not bulky at all.

Overall: Great case at a even better price. Get them while they last! :)

This case fits the fits the EVO4G shift of my wife very well. It also looks like it's going to last for a while. It was very easy to install and it snaps in place, giving the assurance that it's properly in. The material also looks like a very quality hard plastic. The phone still shifts with great ease as it's supposed to. So I'm really excited about the case. It also looks like it can protect the phone from moderate baby trauma and drops. I'm not recommending slamming the phone on a bare floor like my daughter likes to do to get maximum noise production. Good case for daily wear and tear prevention. Not a bad price either.

It looks fine, and snaps on easily. My main complaint is that the case makes it substantially more difficult to slide out the keyboard. You really have to use both hands to get it out. I'm not sure if this is something that will loosen or become easier over time, as my phone is brand new. But I wouldn't recommend getting this is you're constantly using the slide-out keyboard. Otherwise, it's perfect, and you can't beat the price!

Good fit, just as described. Quick ship, good price. It just didn't work so good for me, but it was merely how I was using it, not a product problem.

The Cassiopeia EM-500 looks like a pretty sweet deal. It can do almost anything the E-115 does, and it's smaller and faster. If you compare the EM-500 to the E-115, you'll notice that the E-115 has 32MB of memory, where the EM-500 has 16MB. Also, the EM-500 offers the multimedia card memory system, so memory can be easily expanded.

The EM-500 seems targeted at a younger market, with great multimedia capabilities (MP3, 240 x 320 TFT 65,536 color screen, excellent gamepad).

Its main competitor, the Compaq iPaq, offers more memory and speed, but less colors, and, most importantly perhaps, the keypad of the iPaq cannot register simultaneous clicks, which limits its gameplay capabilities.

If you want a good Pocket PC for both "serious stuff" and games and multimedia, the EM-500 seems the way to go. A fine product by Casio, with more memory I would have given it 5 stars.

Buy Casio Cassiopeia EM-500 Color Pocket PC (Slate Blue) Now

I bought the EM-500 about four months ago. I love the Software that it came with (Microsoft Pocket PC) but since all pocket PCs come with the same software I'm not going to write about how cool the transcriber is and how nice it is to write notes down, and save them.

The things that I don't like about this model are that it doesn't support compact flash. It only supports the Casio micro memory cards which are hard to come by. This also means that you will miss out on all those cool accessories that are compact flash compatible. I also don't like the placement of the IR port (on the right side). If you want to send something, you have to turn it to the right for the IR ports to see each other.

Other than that I really like my EM-500 and I use it all the time for work and personal notes and reminders. I also love reading books on it I can read a book in bed with all the lights out so my wife can sleep.

The one recommendation I would make to all pocket pc buyers is to invest in a screen cover the screen can get scratched very easily and if you want to keep it for a while the scratches will start to add up.

I love PDA's (and computers in general, for that matter) and this is an excellent device. There was a time when I swore by Palm's pda's, but while Windows CE (now known as Pocket PC) has evolved to near-desktop power, the Palm has remained virtually unchanged. Of the Pocket PC's available, this unit is the best compromise of size and power. It packs a 150mhz cpu (more powerful than the HP Jornada, less than the Ipaq), 16mb of ram, and an amazing screen capable of displaying 16bit color. The Ipaq and HP Jornada can both only do 12-bit color at best. All of that is packed in a comfortable, small device that feels extremely solid in the hand.

While I do believe the EM-500 is probably the best unit available, it does have a few draw-backs. The miserly 16mb of ram is hardly enough... if you buy this make sure to get a 32mb or 64mb memory card to go with it. My other complaints are minimal: lack of hardware volume control, location of IRDA port... but none of these minor issues really impact the usefulness of the unit.

Definitely a great PDA, and well worth the money.

Want Casio Cassiopeia EM-500 Color Pocket PC (Slate Blue) Discount?

I bought the EM-500 recently to replace my Handspring Visor. I was always more than happy with the Visor, but wanted to go with a device with a color screen and the Pocket PC operating system. My overall satisfaction has been great, but you really have to know what you're getting yourself into.

Generally speaking, my computer skills are well above average. This has turned out to be a very good thing with the Pocket PC system. I've found it at times more versatile than Palm, at times more familiar (due to the Windowsesque interface), but also frequently frustrating. Because everything's a little more "tweakable" than Palm, you'll find more of a need to get into the details and settings a bit more. If you're comfortable with that, then Pocket PC is for you. If you're looking for simplicity and ease of use, then stick with Palm, even if you're a desktop Windows junkie. Palm is certainly expandable (though arguably not as much as Pocket PC), it's just easier to do so.

A few other things to keep in mind: While the MMC slot allows you additional storage space, it's no help for program memory. Some programs require quite a bit of memory to run (PocketDOOM comes to mind), and if you've stored a lot of stuff on your RAM, then you're out of luck. A 32MB version would've been smart on Casio's part. This brings up another point ... Casio has discontinued the EM-500 line now that the PocketPC 2002 OS is out, so you may want to think about how that might affect you. The EM-500 is NOT upgradeable, and never will be.

That said, my experience with the EM-500 has been great. It's got stereo MP3 playback out of the box, a beautifully rich color screen (though difficult to see out-of-doors), and outstanding expandability. It's given me just about everything the Visor did, and more. Its size (just a tiny bit larger than the Visor) and weight (probably at least twice the weight of the Visor) weren't an issue for me, though you might consider it if you plan to carry this in a pocket. Overall, a great purchase, and I believe the best tradeoff between price and quality on the Pocket PC devices.

It has been in the shop for more than a month now. I guess that means that as of today, it has been away for service for more days than I got to use it in the first place.

I could not keep the screen aligned. When you tap the stylus on the screen, the machine should detect exactly where you tap. You can go through an "alignment" procedure to set the position of the stylus exactly. Unfortunately, the screen would go out of alignment (by one-eighth to one-quarter of an inch) five or six times per day. Every third or fourth day, the screen would go out of alignment by one-half to three-quarters inch.

It did not "drift" out of alignment; it would happen suddenly, in the middle of writing characters, for example. I could see the character being formed directly underneath the stylus, and the very next character would be a quarter-inch above or below the stylus.

So, does this happen to everyone (and everyone else just puts up with it)? I don't know, but I could not get any information from Casio whether this was expected behavior, unusual behavior, a common failure or an unusual failure.

So I shipped it back to Casio factory service in NJ, and cannot find out anything about when (if ever) they will send it back, or if they can fix it or if I'll have to live with it.

I sure wish I had bought an iPaq. Maybe I'll go ahead and order an iPaq; it will probably arrive from backorder before I get the Casio back.

• STYLE-Textured Design With Brown Stitching. Black Case & Screen Protectors Available. Do an Amazon Search for Aurum Asus Transformer
• The Microfiber Interior Protects The Screen Inside

First off, Aurum was the only shipper I could find who would ship an Asus case to Canada, so right off the bat it's a win.

The case is very well made, and the tablet fits it just right. Nice and snug with all the holes in the right spots. The core feels very sturdy and i definitely feel it would survive a fall from table height. No dark halo around the camera lens as i've heard many other cases have. And able to charge the tab with it in the case, which is important. It did seem to cause the automatic brightness to think it was nighttime, but that's of no relevance to me as I prefer manual brightness anyway. The brown (copper) colour is a little lighter than it shows in the photo but it actually matches the copper colour of the tab very well.

It did come a few days later than expected, but when asked about it, the seller responded within about 10 minutes and had it sorted out.

All in all, a very good case at an amazing price, and awesome service to go along with it.

I'm very happy with this cover. It's nothing fancy but does provide inexpensive protection for my new Transformer. The cutouts are correct but I do remove the case for pictures and videos. Also, I must open case to charge but if there were a cutout for charging then rain, dirt and the elements would get in and possibly foul the plug.

The delivery was faster than promised,this was a very good transaction.

This product is a great fit and is exactly what I wanted. When taking pictures, it does need a little adjustment to keep from showing a halo. Just zoom in a little before you take the picture and that will eliminate the unwanted border.

Really like the appearance. Looks like a notebook of some sort when it is in my car and does not attact attention as an eee pad.

Hewlett Packard Jornada 568 Pocket PC

• Color Pocket PC with 64 MB of RAM with Microsoft's Pocket PC 2002 operating
• Built-in CompactFlash slot lets you add memory, accessories
• Vibrant 16-bit color display provides clear view indoors and out
• Store and edit data, browse the Internet, check e-mail with powerful Pocket PC applications
• What's in the box: Jornada 568, Stylus, rechargeable lithium-polymer battery, CR-2032 backup battery, AC adapter, USB cradle, Jornada Quick Start Guide, Documentation pack, Pocket PC Companion CD

The original HP Jornada Pocket PC's were easily outclassed by Compaq and Casio's models, but HP's engineers have redeemed themselvesand surpassed the competitionwith the new Pocket PC 2002 versions: the Jornada 565 and 568. (The only difference between the two is RAM, with the 568 having 64Mb to the 565's 32Mb.)

These new models have the superior display and speed of the competitors products, but easily top the Compaq with built-in CF card expansion and replaceable, rechargable batteries that have longer life spans than the iPAQ. The included flip-up cover is also a plus and makes the Jornada the lightest weight and slimmest Pocket PC available with both screen protection and CF expansion built-in.

HP also thoughtfully provided a way for users to store up to 8Mb of data or programs in the secure FlashROM, assuring the security of vital material.

Besides the Microsoft Pocket PC software suite, HP's bundled software includes Code Wallet Pro and the versitile OmniSolve calculator as well as HP's own image viewer. This viewer is the best I've tried on any Pocket PC. My favorite bundled program though has to be Mobile Conversay. This easy-to-use program allows you to talk to your Jornada and receive spoken responses. Mobile Conversay will read your calendar to you, tell you the date and time, check your battery life, start and stop programs and more.

The Jornada 565/568 are easily the top of the new crop of Pocket PC's.

Although the new iPaqs are sure to generate a lot of hype, HP is hoping they can gather a much larger share of the Pocket PC market with the new Jornada 560 family.

Size:

The Jornada 560 is about the same size as the 540 and 520, slightly less wide but the same height. The BIG change is in the weight my old Jornada 548 weighed 9.1 ounces, and the 565/567 weighs 3 ounces less at 6.1 ounces. It doesn't sound like much, but this device doesn't try to pull my Dockers down like the old one did! The difference in size is obviously due to the new 3.5" display, which seems to make the screen a bit sharper than its larger competitor, the iPaq.

I love the screen cover on the Jornada 560 series you don't need to have a separate carrying case for the device! With my iPaq, I needed a carrying case to protect the screen. With the Jornada, I can close the cover and jam it into my pocket without worrying about scratching the display. HP devices always feel like they're well built, and the Jornada 560 is no exception.

The Jornada feels very good in the hand. I like the rubberized sides of the device, as I feel like I always have a good grip on it. When I was taking my iPaq with me to work every day on the light rail, I was always feeling like I was going to have it slip out of my hand onto the floor. It was also wider and wasn't as easy to hold. With the CF sleeve on it (hey, I always have to have my eBooks and music!) the iPaq was also much thicker and heavier.

Functionality:

The 560 series uses a new display that's smaller than that used in the previous generation of Pocket PCs, measuring up at 3.5 inches diagonally instead of 3.8 inches. This reflective TFT display is also much clearer and well defined due to a .216 dot pitch the older displays had a .24 dot pitch. With Microsoft ClearType and the Jornada display, everything's easy to read. Outside, this display is even sharper than the iPaq's.

I've gone for many days using the device with backlight a lot, and still have had battery power to spare. The 560 has a replaceable lithium polymer battery pack, so you can have several charged packs on hand. There's a backup battery stored in a tiny slot on the side of the device, so if your battery DOES happen to croak, you won't lose all your data.

HP will soon be shipping an extended life battery pack that will be a bit thicker, but doubles the estimated battery life to 28 hours! In January of 2002, HP should ship a battery pack with a built-in MMC memory slot. This means that you could pop an MMC card into the battery pack to store data and still have a wide-open CF slot.

There's one nice feature in the 560 called "HP Safe Store". It's an 8 MB ROM area that allows users to install applications, store documents and make emergency backups of their data. If the battery dies and the Jornada RAM is erased, this data remains intact! I've installed critical apps into this area, saving my system memory and CF card space for more important data.

Expandability:

IPaq users love to point out that HP Jornada Pocket PCs don't support Compact Flash Type II cards only Type I. This limits the Jornada, since you can't use the IBM Microdrive for mass storage, or use some of the 802.11b wireless cards that have hit the market. However, Socket Communications' 802.11b card DOES work in the Type I slot of the Jornada 560 series.

If you're considering an iPaq so you can have extra expandability, don't HP will provide more expansion options soon! In December 2001, you can buy a PC Card Adapter, an extended battery pack with SD/MMC slot and a mini-thumb pocket keyboard. These expansion options will clip into the battery compartment or will use a sleeve (like the iPaq).

Value:

HP provides a lot for the price. The Jornada 568 is very compact, there is a wonderfully clear color display, you have the HP Safe Store ROM, and removable lithium polymer battery packs so I feel that the Jornada 560 series is well worth the cost. I've had people gasp at the price of most Pocket PCs, but when I show them that this device is really a contender to replace a laptop PC they seem to think that it is a bargain.

Conclusion:

My overall feelings about the HP Jornada 560 Series Pocket PC can be summed up as follows:

· It's extremely easy to carry in all situations and very well built

· It has very few flaws, other than the speaker pop that will most likely be fixed with a ROM patch

· The added applications are very useful and even a bit fun!

· The 206 MHz StrongARM CPU, the new Pocket PC 2002 OS, and the sharp reflective TFT display make for a fast and very usable Pocket PC

Ever since my first HP calculator back in the late 1970s, I've had a love affair with HP devices. They are always a little bit pricey, but are very well built. The Jornada 560 series is no exception to this long history, and I think that it'll be able to make some serious inroads to the current domination of the Pocket PC market by the Compaq iPaq. I do wish that HP would lower the price about $100 that would seal the fate of the iPaq. If you don't have any Type II Compact Flash cards and want a fast, expandable, and very pocketable PDA, the Jornada 560 is the way to go.

I bought my HP Jornada 568 on February 1, and waited more than two months in order to write a review not guided by the emotion of having such an wonderful invention the firsts days, but by the funcionality of the device. And I must tell that it is extremely useful.

The display is excellent, as with everything on this pocket PC. It works very fast even when almost every application is open; the design is so slim and light that is a pleasure to carry your Jornada everywhere; I think that is one of the most elegant designs in the market also.

The sound, with headphones, is excellent for music, even when it is obvious that listening through the tiny built-in speaker is not the best way to get the best sound quality.

The navigation through the internet is very good, but you must be aware that the effect in some pages is like if you were passing a magnifying glass over a book's page, because most of the internet pages do not exactly "fit to screen" (this also happens with large Excel files or complex Word documents), but even with that detail that is not inherent to the Jornada but to all Pocket PC's, is very useful and clear, because you can increase the size of the text in the page in order to a comfortable reading.

If you also plan to receive e-mail in your Pocket PC, the new operative system allows to receive HTML direct from the Internet, because it converts it to text format automatically, and that was a mayor flaw of the preceding OS.

The Word and Excel documents can be edited or created with easiness, given the multiple input choices the OS has to offer.

I highly recommend a Compact Flash Card of at least 128MB. This is not only for file storage, but to install the programs of your Jornada within the Storage Card and leting almost all the RAM for the applications preinstalled so you can get your device to run extra fast. The only flaw with this is that if you are using a CompactModem or CompactLAN in order to connect to the Internet, the programs that are installed in the CF card will not be available at the moment of navigation because the expansion slot will be already in use.

If you never had owned a Pocket PC, another recomendation is the Pocket PC Handbook, by Dan Hanttula. It is more than worth the price.

Overall, if you are planning to buy a Pocket PC and are not sure about which one to chose, do not hesitate anymore and pick the HP Jornada 568. You will be more than pleased and surely will write a review from your Pocket PC.

Accesories I own and recomend: Targus Stowaway Keyboard, Targus PDA/Keyboard Combo Case (Leather) (only if you use the keyboard very often), Viking CF card 128MB, Pretec's CompactModem and CompactLan (the Support Service from Pretec is superb) and the Pocket PC Handbook, by Hanttula.

This device will end the iPaq's top spot for Pocket PC's. This is smaller, and feels great in your hand..Nice rubberized grips around the edges. Protective cover makes it a breeze to pop into your shirt pocket or trousers. Removable/swappable battery allows for extended life away from your cradle. I can go on and on. Having owned the ipaq and Palm devices, I can say this is surely the best device on the market HP did it right.

Being the techno-nerd that I am I purchased a Jornada 568 as soon as they became available in the fall of 2001. I owned a HP Jornada 548 and had no true business justification for the upgrade but my credit card wouldn't stay in my wallet. This being said I am glad that I made the plunge.

There are many positive sides to this unit and the new Pocket PC operating system over its predecessor. First, the screen is far clearer and brighter then previous HP displays. The screen is crisp and easy to read in sunlight. The screen is very comparable to the Ipaq screen. The removable battery pack is a big time bonus. I can purchase a spare or buy an extended pack which has a built in smart media slot. WOW! The top load compact flash slot is once again another advantage over the Ipaq. With the type I compact flash support built in there is no need for ungainly sleeves. Even better, and the reason I went with the HP, is that the Jornada 540 series accessories for the most part work with the 560 series. The keyboard, camera, modem and many other devices work great on the 560 and in many cases the drivers are built into the new unit. As far as the new operating system goes it is fun and some features are a plus but it is not a major upgrade. The build in transcriber is nice and spell check and word count is nice in MS Word but not revolutionary.

On the negative side I would list two things. First HP did not make screen protectors available for this unit which means we have to purchase from a third party vendor. As much as people complained about the 540 series hard plastic protectors I liked them and wish they were available for the 560 series. The screen is smaller so the sheets don't work without trimming. Secondly, the price may not be unreasonable for what you get but it is pushing the envelope. The unit provides most laptop functions with the purchase of keyboard and networking accessories. On the other hand after you purchase everything you could have purchased a very nice laptop for the same price. The price of the unit is enough to make worry a bit about carrying it around.

Overall a great unit that I am pleased with and do not regret purchasing...

Sony ICD-BX112 Digital Flash Voice Recorder

• Built-in 2 GB flash memory
• Records in MP3 (320 kbps-8 kbps)
• Over 500 Hours of Maximum Recording Time
• Approximately 72 Hours of battery life (recording)

This is a nice recorder, everything works as designed...however, the product description is slightly misleading it says "Records in MP3 (320 kbps-8 kbps)" which implies that the audio files can be downloaded or transferred but this is NOT the case! If you want or need to download your recording, you will need to get a different model the ICD-PX312 model is the version of this recorder that allows download/transfer via USB.

This little recorder is an absolute gem. I have had two Dictaphones before and both did a reasonable job, but this one has very ergonomic buttons and controls that are so straight forward that I didn't really need to refer to the huge instruction manual. When you put the batteries in it asks you to input the date and time, like a mobile phone and then you can start using it.

It actually comes with two batteries so you can start using it straight away, and I did. It copes well with all noise even background sound and there is no hiss or rumbling that you often get with a single microphone unit. It also has a headphone socket (headphones not included) which means you can listen to it on the train etc, without arousing the wrath of other passengers.

The thing I really like is the weight, and size, it fits nicely into the `lighter' pocket of most jeans and is smaller than most mobiles whilst weighing a few grams. It has a massive memory but no USB connection to save files onto your computer. It does have a filing system in the machine, but a USB portal would have made this perfect, still it is not fatal. East to use, easy to carry and easy to understand as the screen is very user friendly. If like me your work means you need a Dictaphone, then I think you would be hard pressed to find one as compact , light weight and user friendly as this.

Edit: I have just had my batteries run out and did not replace for two days, and found that when I did all of my files were wiped, so a bit gutted. It did give warning bleep so i should have paid attention, but thought I ought to post an edit to let users know.

I have no experience with digital recorders, but needed something to record meetings at which I am recording secretary. The sound quality was very good much to my surprise. My only complaint is the ease of directions for things like erasing after finished. Also since I was looking for a very simple recorder, this one is a little more complicated in that is has folders, etc. Overall, a very good product for the price.

You don't need a USB to transfer your recordings, you just need a cord with mini-plugs on both ends. Plug one end into the headphone jack on the recorder and the other end into the microphone jack on your computer. You can also use the "line in" jack on the computer. Then use your own recording software or Windows Sound Recorder (Start, All Programs, Accessories, Sound Recorder) to record to your computer. I'm using Sound Recorder. Find the audio file you want to record, press "Play" on the recorder and press "Start Recording" (red button) on Sound Recorder. Press "stop recording" when you're done and the software asks for a file name. It's true that the Sony recorder files are MP3's but Sound Recorder saves the sound file as a windows media audio file. You can convert this to another type of audio file with any audio editing software--I use Nero Wave Editor. I bought this recorder instead of the more expensive model because I was positive I could transfer the files to my computer without a USB or additional software...as long as the recorder has a headphone jack, one simple cord makes it possible! I'm sure Amazon sells the mini-plug cable but I bought mine at the local Radio Shack.

I personally was looking for something to assist me in rehearsing lines for Theatre..Not wishing to spend a small fortune out the onset, I tried this little Sony and was very surprised at the sound quality (very good for annuciation/vocalization which is very important to an actor) and simplicity of use. I really like the headphone and mike imputs......Of course, this is an entry level digital recorder--don't expect all kinds of "bells and whistles", usb ports or ability to connect to your computer. Just the basics....Wish I had one of these years ago. Would have made memorizing lines a lot easier!!!
