Pros Fast, dual slots, excellent screen and D-Pad, replaceable batteries, compact... You name...

Cons PocketPC 2003 has its share of problems, Case sucks, Itask must die.

Recommended it? Yes

Much to the chagrin of users everywhere, the PocketPC/Palmtop market has shifted again.

Pros Fast, full-featured, wireless, both Compact Flash AND SDIO.

Cons Big and thick.

Recommended it? Yes

Pros Good screen resolution; basic format is epub, with PDF and Word, capability.

Recommended it? No

This thing is an ergonomic disaster. It will do the things a reader should, and does them well. However, a very big however, it is very difficult to hold without inadvertently touching the screen at some point. When that happens, it goes bonkers. If one sits on one's deck at... Read full review »
