"You get what you pay for; excellence has a price"
Pros: Everything I need to function in the field and much more
Cons: I can't convince my company to retire my laptop entirely
Summary: Not to go into a personal bio but I have had a long line of PDA's going back to the beginning. No matter what I paid I had to accept some limitation, no this offered no that available. That FINALLY ended with the Hx. I see that it was called bulky and that the video performance was likewise questioned by Cnet. I'm watching "Butterfly Effect" in my spare time and it looks great to me, even in daylight. Bulky? It fits in my coat pocket and does everything my laptop can. In fact, I leave the laptop at home and access it from the Hx if needed. I also read a review that complained about needing a third-party PIM. There hasn't been a PDA made that didn't need a third-party PIM. I had them with my Palm's/Clie's and I have them with my Hx. And expansion? I have 6 gb of expansion; CF and SD, it's wonderful. I could list all the attributes but all you have to do is read the specs. Now to the issue of cost, cost, cost. It's not cost, it is the VALUE I receive vs. the money I spend. This product has VALUE. You want to know why the T5 just lowered it's price, AGAIN, because it has less VALUE. They could give the things away,it doesn't matter, the T5 doesn't have the functions I need so it has no value. Giving a 10 seems to have given the Cnet review component a fit so I have been warned about the seriousness of this rating. Let me put it simply then, dollar for dollar there is no better PDA on the market. Prove me wrong.
