:) i actually like this pda, its a bit dated now but hey it works well. the last guy that vented about 15 paragraphs long about it was obvioulsy a technophobe and probably incapable of operating a can opener without cutting his toes off :)

the 240*240 screen size and a odd sound issue with tomtom6.3 are the only issues i have had. if you want a supercomputer buy one, if you want a sattelite phone buy one, if you want a satnav device buy one, but if you want a nicely balanced combo of all three then this is it

3. WiFi Fix!!

The only major problem with this is that there is no WiFi included. BUT... you can purchase a WiFi SD card from Ebay or Amazon or any other computer company for only a small fee (From $30.00 to $100.00) Connection might not be as fast as your home computer, but it is great for a wireless phone! By the way, does any body know how to turn MP3's into ringtones?

4. Had; laptop, cell phone, ipod...

Carrying any one of these devices is a necessity, but try carrying all at the same time everywhere. Sucks!

So I got the iPAQ, plus an extra storage card. Doesn't really replace the iPod but I can carry a few songs/books and listen when I need to.

Now I can see all my contacts and even get email from anywhere.

Internet isn't really worth it. Slow and I get errors saying the site doesn't support my browser. So I can wait till I get home.

Camera good quality plus has a light.

Bottom-line: If you are a busy person with lots of people you must keep in contact with, this is a must have.

I think the design is an absolute musthave. It is sleek and fits well in the palm of your hand.

If you wanna woo the ladies with ur toys this is the one to get them purring. Only downside is it doesnt have wi-fi!!

Peace out!

I have enjoyed for pleasure and business and found it very functional. No problems except for volume on speakerphone which I can work around. Get one!

7. You Will Love It

Everything you buy will have limitations. I felt the size, built in GPS, Bluetooth and phone was a good tradeoff with processor speed. Not to mention the camera, light for pictures in a dark room, and a movie camera!. This feels right when you hold it, the keyboard is manageable for a big guy like me (6'3"). If you don't expect the world when you buy this, you will not be disappointed.

8. Ipaq 6515

I am an everyday business user, not a toy fanatic. I needed a device that would integrate PIM, contacts, email, and 'net access with solid phone functionality. The 6515 delivers this in a very usable package with the bonus of excellent bluetooth performance, and a fairly usable thumboard and integrated GPS. Basically this device will allow me to leave my laptop at home for short 1-2 day business trips. Downside is the price, somewhat limited memory, and poor battery life. Thusfar I am getting a full day with heavy use, and about two days with average use.

10. A nice looking ornament

3 Feb 2006 by Pylon

42%4.2out of 10

This is a PDA trying to imitate a smart phone, it fails miserably.

As a phone trying t act like a PDA it also fails miserably because of the odd screen size much of the PDA software won't work correctly.

This bit of kit might look pretty (if you can keep the plastic flap anywhere near clean) but it is one very expensive fashion accessory.

If you want a PDA buy a PDA if you want a smart phome buy a smart phone, but don't waste you money on this pretty looking junk
