Pros WiFi, Bluetooth, fast 624Mhz processor, great design, included cradle, CF/SD slots,...
Cons no jog dial, high battery consumption
Recommended it? Yes

I have never been a fan for PDAs. I used to own an Ipaq a year back but I ended up only keeping it for about 3 weeks before selling it again. The problems with PDA technology back then for me were numerous: the expansion ports were lacking, CPU power was weak, memory sizes were small, there was no... Read full review »

Dell's Top of the Line Doesn't Burst the Wallet

Cons size, quirks, Windows Mobile 2003SE use of VGA screen, battery life, slower than specs...
Recommended it? Yes

I haven't visited Pocket PCs in quite some time... nearly two years now. I still have an Audiovox Maestro which is really a mildly stripped down version of the old Toshiba e570. I sold my Dell Axim X5 Advanced since I moved back to a Medicine Fellowship. Heck, up to this point in time, I was more... Read full review »

Absolutely Astonishing!

20 Helpfuls 21 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Clarity of the text, free wireless services by Sprint, PDF support, free book previews.
Cons Not all books have been digitized, no built in back light, folders to organize, cost.
Recommended it? Yes

I was not interested in an "ebook" reader when the first Kindle came to market but I've quickly realized how valuable the Kindle to be. I choose the Kindle DX for the larger screen but more importantly because of its native PDF support. I deal with a mountain of PDF documents at work and now I have... Read full review »

If you commute daily and read the paper this is ideal. Its less portable than the little one. But is much better for scanning news stories. Carried in a briefcase/purse negates this problem.

Battery life starts off about a weeks worth and degrades to about 3 days. Not bad at... Read full review »
