Amazon.com Product Description--November 11, 2007
Hewlett-Packard has used its considerable expertise as a computer manufacturer to introduce improvements into the iPAQ-310 that make the company's first dedicated GPS navigation device astand out from the crowd, but help raise the bar for portable GPS navigators in general. At 4.3 inches wide, 3.4 inches high, and 0.7 inches thick, the device is quite small and slim, but fits rich navigation and multimedia features, better than DVD screen resoulation, a unique true 3D display, and robust business support into that little package. HP touts this as "different and unique for the travel connosieur," and it's innovative features certainly make a convincing argument to back up that claim.

3d navigation for ipaq 310
Unique, high-definitation navigation display with 3D models of buildings.
It All Starts Under The Hood
The biggest difference in the iPAQ-310 is one you might not even notice, until you turn the iPAQ-310 on, that is. The iPAQ's processor is much more powerful than any portable device out there right now. It uses a SiRFtitan 600MHz dual core processor with 128Mb of onboard RAM, compared to the 400MHz SIRF III and 64Mb of RAM in other high-end portable GPS navigators. This means faster route calculations and re-routing. It also means more processing power for the graphics display, which leads us to one of the other things that makes the iPAQ-310 unique.

An Immersive, High-Definition, Navigation Experience
The iPAQ-310's advanced 3D navigation system provides stunning visuals. For select cities, rather than the simple lines and color blocks you see on other navigators, you get actual 3-D models of buildings in space. Nothing else puts you in space and gives you a real feel for where you are and where you need to go than this device. Panning and zooming are smoother and faster. Plus, the 4.3-inch (diagonally) widescreen display has far better resolution than competitive models, 800 x 480 pixels compared to the current standard 420 x 272 pixels, which means all of those 3D maps are clear and detailed.

Easy-to-use interface
Full-Featured Navigation
HP developed it's own user interface for the iPAQ-310 based on Windows Mobile 5.0. The interface is clear, intuitive, and easy to use. The device comes with text-to-speech capability, which allows it to offer directions with real street names, as well as Bluetooth for hands-free phone calling.

It comes pre-loaded with complete TeleAtlas maps for the United States and Canada, and an astonishing 12 million points of interest.

Bluetooth for hands-free calling with your compatible cell phone
video
Better than DVD resolution on the 4.3-inch widescreen
Rich Multimedia Features
At 800 x 480 pixels, the high-definition resolution on the iPAQ-310's screen is better than most dedicated portable video players. Coupled with an SD card, the iPAQ-310 functions as a true premium personal entertainment system with a video player, MP3 music player, photo viewer, and 5 pre-installed games from GameboxClassics.

Integrated Web Services
Planning a business trip, a vacation, or even just a run of daily errands can sometimes require access to more data than a portable or mobile device can feasibly handle. Hewlett-Packard's answer for this is a website, www.ipaq.com that allows you to download map updates, load custom points of interest, travel reviews, reservation information, and more into your iPAQ-310. You can even synch up with your Microsoft Outlook address book to create custom points of interest based on personal or corporate contact information. You can upload and share your travel plans for others to use and customize, or find trip plans online to help you explore along the way or at your destination.

5 out of 5 stars Hewlett-Packard IpaQ   May 2, 2008
I just recently purchased the Hewlett-Packard iPAQ 310 Bluetooth 4.3-Inch Widescreen Portable GPS Navigator. It was easy to use rt out the box. The software was easy to install. I used it twice so far on road trips and it was a sinch to use. A must buy, worth every penny...^^




2 out of 5 stars Shame on HP   April 29, 2008
I have used this thing perhaps 6 times and it has locked up on me twice. It would not turn off and I had to pull the battery out and then re-insert it. HP should be very embarassed to have release such a faulty product. On the positive side, the screen has high resolution and looks very good, but I will not buy another one from HP.


1 out of 5 stars What?   April 28, 2008
I have returned the product for a refund. The volume at it's highest level was barely audible. Compared to another brand of GPS that I have used, this product was inferior for the price.


4 out of 5 stars Great Tool, but Steep Learning Curve   April 28, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

The iPAQ Travel Companion is a great tool. It gets me where I need to go. Love the route recalculation feature, economical mode (as opposed to shortest or fastest), and how it shows the upcoming turns in a large box. The text-to-speech needs some work, but the screen is so easy to view with bright backlighting that it doesn't really matter, plus it tells you how many feet, miles, etc, so you always know where to turn anyway.

That being said, this is one tool where you will definitely need to read the manual first, because there are a lot of features & customizations that just appear as icons. I love searching for POIs by name, but would never have figured out how to do that without reading the manual.

I think it would be helpful for HP to install the user manual right on the iPAQ so it would always be handy for looking up & figuring out how to work it.



4 out of 5 stars hp 310 review   April 28, 2008
I bought this product one month ago, and I have been test on all the function inside , so far the hi-resolution of the LCD screen and blue tooth work's fine to me, only the speaker is not that loudly to hear when you drive on the free-way, and GPS some time is take over 1 minute on the cool boot.but final I am very happy with the great price and with more function on this product. thank you
