Reviewing: Hp Ipaq Hx 4700
Purchased at: Newegg     Price: $425.00 USD

I bought this particular PDA to keep track of customer contacts & phone numbers when my husband started his own business about two or three years ago now.After quite a bit of research I chose this model over others mostly because of the vga 640 x 480 resolution.All the other PDAs at the time were half this size.

One of the pluses is that it comes with a titanium casing so it is extremely durable.In fact, my son (now 9) has used it as much as I have to play games on long trips.It also uses SD or CF memory sticks to store extra data which I have used for GPS when traveling.

One of the draw backs are that it uses a stylus and these little tiny sticks are super easy to loose.To replace them they cost about $10 for 3.

I like the titanium casing on this PDA. some of them are rather fragile and can crack, then the thing becomes useless.

I'd say it was Indestructible but as soon as I claim this my son would find a way to crack the case :0)

I'm not too terribly familiar with PDA's because I don't have one-I dind't realize that HP made them!

What does PDA mean? Something Data Attachment? I am just curious, because I don't know that much, when it comes to computer terms and attachments. Most of the time, I'm just winging it. I'm I will see something and know what it does, but can't tell you what the name of it is.

PDA means Personal Data Assistant, I think. Sort of like a Day Runner on a computer!

I have never handle a PDA myself , looks like it is a very good gadget to own one.
