So Far, So Good! August 7, 2008
I purchased and received my iPAQ hx2795 pocket PC nearly two weeks ago and have been happy with it so far. My Palm Treo, although it served me well for several years, died on me and I was looking to upgrade to a device that didn't include a cell phone. I've had none of the problems that many other reviewers have experienced except for the device coming on by itself after I shut it off. This only happened a few times after the HP ProtectTools loaded. I have Windows XP at work and VISTA at home and the device syncs well to my work PC and the Wi-Fi (once I figured out how to connect) works well through my home network. I'm still learning and playing around with my iPAQ, but am happy I made the purchase so I heartily recommend it for those who want to stay organized and be mobile.
 piece of garbage July 24, 2008
I bought mine almost 1 year ago, trying to improve my old (but good) Dell Axim X5, and after using the warranty 4 times, (because the one I bought was overheating when it was Off) first they replaced the battery, then the equipment (twice) and the IPaQs continue overheating, with no technical explanation from HP. Now they offered me an "Improvement" to my original choice (the IPaQ 210) but these guys are so smart that sent me only the new IPaQ (210) with no battery, cables, Installation CD, stylus, etc. (the 2795 and the 210 are quite differents in the accessories) this was almost 1 month ago and they are still playing games with me. Conclusion: after 1 year of purchasing the IPaQ I could use it properly around 1 month. My worst experience as Client.... I will go back to DELL.
Better than its counterparts July 3, 2008
I have used other handheld ppcs and PDAs and this product is several steps ahead since it combines the best features that other products offer singly (limited, or at the expense of other functions).
A user can maximize its utility as an electronic notebook with a bluetooth keyboard. It also helps the user do away with all of those scrap-paper notes (that easily gets lost/misplaced). A messaging software for ppcs could also expand its functions.
I have been using this product for more than 5 months now and only once have I found the need to re-boot it. I just wish that it could handle higher storage capacity SDs (greater than 2MBs), especially for users who makes a lot of ppt presentations. Along with softwares, maybe HP could also develop useful accessories for this product (camera) for "on-the-road" users (e.g., field reporters, surveyors).
 Good iPAQ, solid performer April 27, 2008
This is my second iPAQ, the first was the iPAQ 3950. That one never missed a beat, so I figured when I wanted to upgrade to wireless, stick with a solid performer. That turned out to be a good decision. Did check the reviews and saw the comments regarding the BIOS and battery run down with SD Card. With any computer equipment, you should always make sure you are running the latest BIOS and software, even if its just out of the box. In my case this unit had the latest installed. Wireless setup was easy, although a little slow with the initial connection to my home network, you just have to be patient and let the unit connect.
This was a good choice and worth extra few bucks for the increased memory and faster processor over other PDAs and iPAQs. The only negative is battery life. It seams to be shorter, than my earlier iPAQ. Battery life is extremely short if running on wireless, so if you are not on the web, shut the wireless off. Been using this for two months and like my earlier iPAQ has not missed a beat and performing flawlessly.
so far stable April 23, 2008
So far this thing has been worthwile getting. I use it for epocrates online as well as to log patient encounters and for random notes when I don't have paper handy. I'm hoping to get more software for it in the future, since I can get network access from the hospital wi-fi nicely, but right now money is an issue.
about the only thing I don't like is that it's difficult and slow to surf the web with this thing. I don't know if this is how all PDAs are, but it's considerably slower than any computer.
I've had a couple of freezes here and there, but I've always just pressed the reset button and everything came back the way it was. The only other issue is that it keeps changing the time on me. It may be that I haven't found a patch for it to adjust to the new daylight savings time, because the problems was temprary both a couple of weeks ago and in the fall.
