"Wonderful!" on by missy853
Pros: Wi-Fi, and display
Cons: Stupid program cd.
Summary: I just got mine 111, and i love it. I had a Palm III for 5 years, so this is a big upgrade. So far I haven't found anything to complain about. I wouldn't take the guys opinion about miss placing his stylus, and HP not having a replacement. Hes not going on how well the PDA works, just his problem finding a replacement. You can use other PDA stylus.
So I figure if you are looking for a good PDA, easy to set up, ie wi-fi, email etc. this would be the one for you. I had a problem with the cd, it kept saying that I needed adobe flash 8 or higher, and I had 9 installed. So the cd didn't work, but I fixed that by downloading the program I needed from windows website, and my active sync worked fine. I'm sure there are others just as good or better, but the price is reasonable, and the PDA dependable. -
"Awesome tool for the business owner" on by xsjunkie
Pros: Great operating system, fast, smooth, easy to use
Cons: No docking station, only usb port
Summary: The iPAQ 111 is a great handheld. I previously owned a Tungsten E2. The 111 has a much faster processor and is easier to set up and use. I especially like the letter recognizer for text entry. It is more user friendly than the E2, and has a word completion option that makes note taking like writing on paper. There is also a draw option that allows you to draw a diagram right in your notes, again just like writing on paper. The bluetooth technology allows me to connect my stereo headset for tunes and allows me to workout, listen, and log my workout entries without carrying a seperate notebook. The 111 also allows me to upload my favorite photos and videos, and allows me to read and create email on the fly. The note feature also allows me to voice record a memo or conversation allowing me to take more thorough notes later. Way to go HP, this is a great unit for the price.

"Very good product - great price!" on by Trevor98
Pros: Windows platform better than Palm OS. Great resoultion. Syncing is easier than Palm OS. Light weight. Built in Wi-Fi.
Cons: None thus far, but is a bit light which gives it the appearane of not being rugged.
Summary: After 10 years of using Palm products, I made the switch to an iPAQ and am sorry I didn't switch sooner. Was using the Palm TX, but I find the iPAQ easier to use and makes connecting to the internet much more simpler than the TX. A very solid product!

"Awesome product - favored over Palm" on by b06efj
Pros: Windows Mobile software and fast processor
Cons: battery consumption
Summary: I have been a PALM PDA user for years, and just recently 'converted' from a Palm T/X to this unit, with NO regrets. The Windows Mobile 6.0 software is so much nicer to navigate than the Palm OS, and is more intuitive, and file transferring is much easier. One huge difference is the Marvell 624 MHzXScale processor, offering twice the speed of the Palm T/X which was most noticeable when sending/receiving e-mail, internet browsing, and even in device synchronization via Active Sync. I am using the HP Bluetooth foldable keyboard for data input and have no issue with it or tethering it to the iPAQ. The display seems brighter/clearer than the Palm, and it is lighter as well. There are to many other 'betterments' to mention here, but suffice it to say I'm thrilled to have made the switch, and don't think you can go wrong with this device.

"the buck stops here..." on by dvice19
Pros: well rounded, simple, solid, sleak, slim, sexy, fast, great performer
Cons: wouldn't mind 128MB RAM, bluetooth acts a little quirky at times
Summary: I don't usually put my opinion into these things, but I have to stick up for this lovely pocket pc.
I've had about 6 pdas in the past 2 years and I have to say this one has my preference. It's just a solid, well rounded pda. It has all the features a person needs in a handheld and it just performs well. And it's totally inexpensive.
It's fast, slim, the screen is great and it looks good. I've thrown about ten programs into it and a bunch of other crap and it doesn't skip a beat. I've had no trouble with sync or anything.
Windows Mobile 6 is also way better than WM5.
I admit there is not a whole lot of accessories out for this pda (ie. stylus), but it's only been around a few months. These ipaq 110's are ubiquitous already - anyone smart would see a business opportunity here. I would love it if I could get it with 128MB of RAM too.
Using the bluetooth I find that sometimes the ipaq icon on the today screen doesn't light up green when it's on like it should. I've had some other odd little bluetooth things happen too...
Whatever, thank God for this pda...
