Pros: Great screen, better than earlier versions
Cons: Everything else
Summary: ...it's no Palm. There, I said it. I love gadgets but they must qualify for my attention by way of making my life better, being an improvement over whatever I'm currently using that I'm replacing, must be logical (the Mr. Spock in me)and...be fun to ... read more

Pros: It's a veritable PC in your pocket!
Cons: Nothing really beats working with a REAL PC.
Summary: The HP Jornada 545 may be one of the sleekest, coolest color PDA out there right now. And in my opinion, it's one with the best value for your money. It comes bundled with Microsoft Pocket Office! That itself is quite a gem. Now you can write your Word ... read more

Pros: Fully Functional computer in your hand. Total access to everyday life! Not just a palm.
Cons: could use more memory. internet access is expensive
Summary: Ok, lets talk about the nice color screen. its everything you need when you're looking at a unit 5 hours a day. The pale green or barely backlit gray can be a bit annoying.

Pros: Audio, video, Microsoft compatibility, software, features
Cons: Durability, memory, overall compatibility, performance
Summary: Overview
I have always been an HP fan, but my experience with the Jornada 545 has shown to be an exception. However, I could have had an atypical lemon. There is a good warranty and otherwise reason to give HP the benefit of the doubt, so my ... read more

Pros: Easy to use, solid design, highly intuitive
Cons: Power hungry, crashes occasionally, small RAM
Summary: I've had my Jornada 545 with me for 6 months now and feel it is the one piece of electronic equipment I can't live without. The greatest feature, or I should say features, is the amount of things I can do with this unit. Firstly, synchronizing up with ... read more

Pros: Looks cool
Cons: The synch doesn't work!!!
Summary: After supplying my CEO with a Jornada 680 two years ago(see my review) and the good experiences I had with the PDA, I decided to get my wife a 548.

Pros: Color, large memory, easy to use
Cons: Expensive, low battery life
Summary: I purchased this product because it could play MP3's. No shame in that, right? I just couldn't justify spending money on something that did just that, though. So, I picked up this little device, and it has changed my life.
This was the first device ... read more

Pros: This PDA is packed with multimedia features.
Cons: The Palm is better for data management. he unit is complicated.
Summary: I love this little computer.
The HP 545Pocket PC has some obvious limitations. The 16 Ram memory is not nearly enough if you are using a flash card. The screen is not as bright as the IPaq but it is still a powerful device. When HP offered to refund ... read more

Pros: Most usable version of WinCE to date, USB
Cons: Still a little more complex to use than PalmOS platforms
Summary: I started with this type of device back with the Casio E-100 last year. The main decision points for me are color, stereo output and a compact flash slot. WinCE is still a little clunky but the PalmOS simply can't do what this can. It only has a type1 CF ... read more

Pros: Quality, Size/Design, Reliable
Cons: Still a difficult OS to really use effectively.
Summary: Sadly, I have chased WinCE devices around the block. Two velos, which I really liked, and now my Jornada. First the bad. It isnt the easiest to use- not even close. Ive reloaded it twice with software because the golf game got so buggy nothing else ... read more
