Star Trek Tricorder?

by Megatherium , May 01 '00
Pros: Diverse applications, Microsoft chutzpah
Cons: Expensive
Palm PDA users? You have my attention. That’s saying a lot considering I wrote a review here damning the Palm platform (see “PDA Smackdown”). In my experience the Palm was an eclectic technological toy that wasn’t really useful as a personal...

Jack of all trades, Master of none

by tcervo , May 25 '00
Pros: Flashy
Cons: Too big and heavy, too many useless and hard to use features
The HP Jornada 545 is loaded with features. Unfortunately, it doesn't do any of its many tasks very well. After only two weeks of using it, I returned it to the mega-store (thanks for the 30-day return policy!) I was lured by it's flash and sizzle, but...

Not bad but could be better!

by haiyan2k , Jun 06 '00
Pros: lots of features; cool design
Cons: not enough memory; pricy
If you want a Plam Pilot then consider the HP Jornada 545 instead.
For starters it has a nice colorful screen, a sleek design in black case and great handwriting recognition. Were as with the Palms you have to learn graffti in order to write here...

Swiss Army Knife of PDAs

by mikej165 , Jun 14 '00
Pros: MP3 Playback, Voice recording
Cons: Data entry and user interface.
Ever since I used my first Palm Pilot I've felt that these devices would one day change the way in which we use computers. In a large sense they have. The newer generation of handheld devices can perform many of the chores that desktop computers also...

Jornada...My Best Friend

by jersey101 , Dec 19 '00
Pros: Can download software for it off the net easy.
Cons: Can't view big documents in Excel. Not enough room on the screen.
Hi,
I had a Philips Nino that ran the older version of Windows CE. After research, I found that Windows CE was going to get a face lift. Pocket PC took over the old life of the OS System that ran my Nino. I wanted to see if I would be able to...

The best pocket PC out!

by KrYpToNiX , Sep 23 '00
Pros: its great, nothing better!
Cons: nothing bad at all!

"Is that a Palm V?" asked the lady seated across the aisle from me on an America West flight from Denver to Sacramento. "No, it's something new," I answered. But I could understand her question. At first glance, HP's new Jornada...

Better than palm if you want more than an address book

by dhgaut , Jun 18 '00
Pros: COLOR, Expedia Maps, MP3, ebooks
Cons: Twice as thick as Palm V, "synchs" with Outlook
If all you are looking for in a PDA is an address book and scheduler, then I think the Palm is the way to go because it's so simple. But if you are interested in something that can entertain you during dull moments or if you think you may have some...

An intelligent, portable assistant

by cccpastor , May 18 '00
Pros: Ease of use, applications, Quick sync time
Cons: At $499 a pop, do your homework first
I am a pastor of a busy, multi-staff church. I have always wanted a device that would allow me to portably manage PIM data as well as manipulate key documents (such as message outlines, budgets, etc.) while on the move. The Jornada does exactly this,...

Pocket PC? Hope You Have Huge Pockets

by cflammia , Jul 24 '00
Pros: breadth of functionality, good looks
Cons: cost, size, platform
In the last year I have owned a Palm Vx, an HP Jornada 430se, a Cassiopeia, and my latest toy the HP Jornada 545. The HP Jornada 545 is very well engineered, and has a tremendous amount of functionality but this comes at a cost.....portability and...

This OS could beat Palm...

by pushijima , Jun 21 '00
Pros: Rugged, fast
Cons: Poor quality screen, not quite as easy as Palm OS
I have been burned by Windows CE in the past. Microsoft's slimmed down version of Windows for handheld devices has been typified by a complex interface, sluggish performance, memory hogging and general instability. Aside from the memory hogging, I think...

Jornada Pocket PC - Why I LOVE it!

by hitekmastr , May 14 '01
Pros: Color, expandable, durable, a true pocket PC, synchs great with my PC
Cons: Less colors than originally advertised but this didn't affect performance
I have never been a "PDA" user because they were bulky, heavy, overbuilt, black and white and more inconvenient to use than a paper calendar or laptop. Then I got my Jornada. It happened to be a 545 and while I would recommend a 548 or higher model if...

A couple bad things a about it....

by CarbonAdder , Dec 15 '00
Pros: Stable OS, Monumentous Sound, Clean Look, Fair price
Cons: Cannot see screen too well in sunlight, File transfer lacks speed
People are curious to see what i have in my hand. I do lots of writing and this device is the perfect companion for me to write down ideas and thoughts. The music player connected to a speaker system is superb. With a CF card of mp3's you can use...

A piece of work!

by cherek , Oct 15 '00
Pros: Durability, scalabilty, overall software package.
Cons: Needs more memory.
The HP Jornada 545 is a piece of work. I fell in love with it even before it was out on the shelves. It's durability and scalability is amazing. Compared to other PDA's of it's kind it surpasses. It's loaded with great software and can be easily...

The Best Got Better

by hroeder , Jun 09 '00
Pros: Interface, software, speed, processor, memory
Cons: Backordered everywhere but HP
My boss wanted a pocket organizer, so I started researching them for him. Then my son, who's a Junior in Computer Programing decided he was tired of keeping his schedule by hand. The end result was the Jornada 548.

This microcomputer (That's...

Is That a PC In Your Pocket?

by joeshockley , May 06 '00
Pros: great design, small size, lots of features and bundled software
Cons: Lack of available 3rd party programs
The HP Jornada 545 is an awesome PDA. I recently got to spend some time playing with one of these, and it was love at first site.

The size is just right, being roughly the same as a Palm III (although a little heavier, thanks in part to the...
