Summary: I bought this for a birthday present
Comment: I bought this HP Ipaq for my husband as a birthday present. He loves it. He wanted it primarily for the E-Sword Bible along with all the commentaries. We put a 2 gig memory card in and it can hold all kinds of books which he likes. Also he accesses the internet with it and although the screen is small he can access email and the like. He really enjoys it.
Customer Rating: Summary: Fits my needs perfectly!
Comment: The iPAQ I had before this one was purchased in 2001 and showing its age something awful. After suffering the pain of swapping over to a new device, I am up and running and very happy. I use my Pocket PC for everything, including reading ebooks on both Microsoft Reader and eReader. I'm impressed by most of the new features of Windows Mobile (except the lack of backup through ActiveSync, what's up with THAT?) and using it in all the ways I'm accustomed to. Battery life is decent, the screen is easy to read and use for input with the stylus. I like being able to charge through the USB connection and data transfer by USB seems fast enough for my needs as well. I'm completely happy with my new device and really glad HP offers the "Classic" version.

Comment: This product works exceptionally well, it does everything that I wanted and expected of it.HP iPAQ 111 Classic Handheld (FA979AA#ABA) (110 Series)
Customer Rating: Summary: Simply great PDA
Comment: This is about my 10th PDA; my last one is the iPAQ 4700. The 4700 uses Mobile 5.0, which is another one of Microsoft's big mistakes, and was soon replace with Mobile 6.0. Version 6.0 corrects all the issues more or less with 5.0. If you are use to Windows CE software you will have little problems learning 6.0. The main improvement is the Mobile 6.0 takes advantage of the speed of the CPU and nice design of this iPAQ 111. The screen and button functions all work well without hesitation. Wi-Fi is great. This PDA is small and light weight, but the screen is a nice size. I found it easy to read since my eyes aren't the best anymore. The speaker is not good for listening too much of anything, but fortunately the headphone jack is a standard one, so you can easily plug in a set of head phones or external speakers.
I used Audilbe.com software and that has installed easily and works fine. I installed a 4gigbyte SD card, and have stored over 10 full length audible books on to it, and still have plenty of room for added storage. This PDA is very light compared to my 4700, and that is a big bonus. So I have the same performance of an $800.00 PDA, but with a much improved OS, light in weight and very light in price.
I am a Prime Amazon member, and for just $4.00 more I got over night shipping. The product has a USB cable, and an AC power supply for faster charging than the USB. Amazon also offers a cradle-charger, which I recommend. There are two types of cradles. One is your basic cradle and the other will hold another battery and charge it, along with being a cradle. I use a nice software program that displays a full screen size clock, and I use the cradle/PDA as a holder. Thus I have an easily to read bedside clock.
I use this PDA at work, I am a health care provider, so I am constantly referencing to software that I have purchased. So the small size and easy to read screen, along with over all speed and storage is all a very welcome change from my large iPAQ 4700.
I know the trend is to have a PDA with a phone, but I personally haven't found one that combines both features well. I use Outlook and since the OS is Microsoft, the syncing to my computer using WinXP is just easy and complete. All the changes I made during the day are transferred to my Outlook on my desktop computer and vice versa. So not only do they keep in sync, but I always have a backup of my Outlook on my PDA. With the Wi-Fi I can be anywhere in my home and connect to my email or the internet quickly and securely and no added cost.
Customer Rating: Summary: Now I'm sold
Comment: I purchased the IPAQ for Pocket Fritz (chess software). I didn't expect much beyond that. However, the wireless/internet explorer browser works well, the keypad entry is quick and accurate (also suggesting words), and the display is good. I was debating between the higher resolution enhanced model and the classic model, and opted to save money with the classic. I'm glad I did :-)
