keep i mind that what you read here & in articles is not necessarily the majority of user experiences, especially in the case where problems are mentioned.

the people with problems, simply because they're having problems at the time, are the loud minority. i don't mean this in an offensive way at all, i know that if i'm having problems of a ppc nature i do whatever i can to find solutions .. of course.

i have an ipaq 3630 & even though i have had to make one hard reset & a fair few soft resets, since i've made myself a good backup plan, it's really not an issue. most of my problems are simply because my 3630 only has 32mb of ram & it lives its life with less than 5mb free at any given time. i'm sure it's pushing the boundaries.

i'm very happy with my ppc & am just hanging out for another six months or so to buy the second latest model. sticking with the second latest model (of anything) not only saves you lots of money, but means that others can work out the bugs before you get there .. :wink:

sorry, got kind of off topic there, but i hope i've made sense anyway.
