Quick Take: The HP iPaq rz1715 is the ideal handheld for novices. It has plenty of memory (32MB) to carry contacts and appointments, and its lightweight and compact form factor make it a perfect travel companion. And it even has a fun side, letting you take your photos and music files with you on the go. At $279.99, the PDA is a little expensive, and it doesn't come with wireless connectivity. Still, it's a strong performer and a solid entry-level model. The rz1715 differs only slightly from its sibling, the rz1710. It displays a different start-up screen with shortcuts to your music, your photos, your calendar, and your contacts, and it adds a couple of software apps such as Peacemaker. For a more in-depth look at the rz1715, please refer to CNET's review of the HP iPaq rz1710.

    Summary: A decent entry level Pocket PC, as always exuding HP quality, fit and finish. However, at $279, we do wish it had a user replaceable battery and one form or another of wireless networking built in.

    Summary:    Overall, this Pocket PC is nothing special. The Toshiba e400 and HP iPAQ 1910/1930 Pocket PCs can do everything it does in a smaller, more slim package, for about $100 less. Whether HP is branding this as an Entertainment PDA or not, the end users ...

    Summary: Separate the PDA from its cradle and it loses satnav functionality. That just isn't good enough
