• Don't Buy this Product!!
  I have had this Pocket PC for over a year now. It won't hold a charge for more than a day even when turned off.

I have old cell phones that hold a charge lots longer than this.

Also the USB type of charger will turn on the unit. So if your USB charger gets unplugged... more info

  (Originally intended title was "It makes the iPod look like a complete waste of $$$...harsh but true")
  I have been using my Ipaq hx2795b for a couple of months now, and at first it did have frequent freeze-ups and battery draining issues, especially when using the SD card. But once I updated the BIOS (ROM) to the latest version (you can find it at hp's website), everything works smoothly ever since. Also remember to use the latest version of ActiveSync (4.2 so far), and not the one that comes with the... more info
