Summary: I have been researching PDA's for about 8 months. Didn't want all the fancy stuff, but I did want windows and WiFi. The only answer under 400$ was a Dell. After using Dell's crappy computers in the Military, that was not an option. Dell sucks. Enter HP. Got the 3115 for 270$ from MP Superstore (Delivered to Okinawa in 12 Days!). Had it synched with my computer in 30 minutes! I had not set up my wireless network yet, but turned on the WiFi on the PDA just to play...and it picked up my neighbors network through cinderblock walls! Walked outside and found 2 more networks to surf on! The HP directions are pretty good, and they include a “How Do I...?” book that answers a lot of questions that HP customer service gets. The HP website is great too, upgraded to a newer version of the PDA software. Took no time and worked perfectly. Really upset the wife when I changed the channel on the TV with it. If I had to complain about anything, it’s working with the Nevo Software that does remote controls, but that is an option that I wasn’t even expecting. This model is the same design as the higher quality models, so there is a plastic design outcropping on the back where the camera goes on the others. Looks kind of chintzy, but once again small potatoes. Otherwise, this little thing pretty much does everything. Anyone want a laptop?
