After the warranty expired one day I couldnt turned it on anymore. it seems that after the warranty is over HP expect you to toss your device and buy a new one. My ipaq rx1900 worked a little more than a year during which it needed reseting many times. I contacted hp and it was impossible to find a physical address to take it or mail it to get it fixed.
I would have liked to know what specific programs were included and the cost of other programs available.
However, the SD card slot broke just after the warrantee expired and now its useless. There are too many other good PDAs on the market to waste your time with this one. but I can't remember the last time they did. I can't say my Pilot or my current Palm Treo never lock up. The OS on the HP locks up too much for me. I have owned several PDA's ever since the first Palm Pilot hit the market back in the mid 90's (which, btw, still works fine). I am not used to having my PDAs lock up. The HP Wi-Fi and bluetooth work well, I give them that.
Adding tasks is really nice for homework and projects. I wish there was a lock button. It has a nice picture to it and its sweet for picture viewing. I would definately recommend this.
but dim is still a nice reading setting) but the power button gets pressed in my purse sometimes and drains it. The WiFi is perfect. The only negative I've had is that when I got through security at airports it COMPLETELY zaps my charge. I love the note pad, I can write up things quickly or 'type' them in. It's been so nice for me to have. I can almost always get connected. Its also SO nice to use the Microsoft Outlook to update my contacts and calendar. The battery power is okay.
Luckily I don't fly THAT often and when I do I can generally find a plug-in to recharge it. I'm a full time student and I bought this PDA a year ago. The SD expansion slot is really nice for adding books etc (I have a few different versions of the Bible with commentaries for super fast and easy access). It stays nicely (I do keep the backlight pretty dim.
It is easy to use and costs less than $20.http://www.dvdcatalyst.comI really enjoy my IPAQ. I hope these suggestions help you get more enjoyment out of yours. Your videos will play smoothly without interruptions. You will not have the buffering problems that the WM Media Player has. I would recommend downloading a free version of TCPMP DIVX player for the Pocket PC at the following location. I would not recommend using the Windows Mobile's Media Player on the IPAQ for playing videos. TCPMP is a far superior video player than the WM Media Player. It also plays a wider range of video format than the WM Media Player.http://www.dvdcatalyst.com/support/downloads/I also recommend DVD Catalyst GT for converting DVD's to playable video files for your IPAQ.
