ipAQ hx2495b Pocket PC [Posted on 2008-01-22] Order entry was simple; delivery was on time; product delivered was as ordered and complete. This is replacement for older-style hp pocket pc circa 2000. Smaller unit is easier to handle. The older iPAQ stylus with pop-up release was easier to use, but the spring failed during it's lifetime which caused the stylus to get loose in pockets and luggage. Used for data transfer from field equipment to laptop - satisfactory.
cliff [Posted on 2008-02-08] my new ipaq performs well although I did have trouble syncing Microsoft Outlook Contacts. I went to Microsoft help and they referred me to HP help and I received the information needed to solve the syncing problem, that is syncing not sinking.
Much more than I ever imagned [Posted on 2008-02-12] I absolutely love this pocket pc. I switched from a Palm Z22 - this is so much nicer. I am still reviewing all the features. Great buy for the price
HP iPAQ hx2495b Pocket PC [Posted on 2008-04-21] Great product. Works well with Windows Vista. Have used Palm products for years....this is superior in almost every way.
Not really ready for Prime Time [Posted on 2008-04-25] Purchased this PDA about 2 years ago, since thing it's been love hate relationship. To start off the SD card would drain all the power from the battery when left in the unit and the unit in the off position. HP provided an update about 6 months into my owning the device (kinda) and that problem appears to be resolved. The unit will not shut off by itself if an calendar alarm turns it on - that kills the battery too. The Windows Mobile OS is full of bugs - the unit won't come on sometimes, it requires a lot of resets and programs that appear to be closed are not "really" closed. You have to go in and make sure they're closed to conserve memory space. The WiFi works sometimes - I have a WPA enabled access point which gives the device problems. I just decided it just wasn't worth the trouble of using it for wireless access. All in all it was a good try by HP but they missed an opportunity to hit a home run. This is my 4th PDA and I won't be buying another one from HP.
