Agree - Toshiba e830 one of best devices
@Gerard
Totally agree about the Toshiba e830. I like the device so much I still use it daily. I will be sad the day apps I want to use will no longer work on PPC 2003SE.
I used the Toshiba e830 with a very small SE T610 phone via Bluetooth. The connection was slow due to the phone only supporting GSM (this was before Edge or 3G were available). I liked the combo because the phone was small, and remained in my pocket when using the e830. When I needed to make a voice call, I had a nice small device, not a huge PDA/smartphone. I wish a small clamshell phone was available with 3G, and Bluetooth. Probably would have to use this wished-for 3G small clamshell phone with the HP210 since my beloved e830 supports bluetooth 1.x.
The e830 had many firsts - 4" VGA screen, Bluetooth and WiFi, graphic processor, 128MB memory standard, USB, and optional VGA out. I did several presentations (PowerPoint, and display mirror) at the local PDA User Group using the VGA out from the e830 to the classroom ceiling video projector. Quality of projected image was excellent. I have purchased an extra e830 via eBay, and some spare batteries. The e830 has been super reliable for me, and so far, most apps I want to use still work with PPC2003SE.
I always credited Toshiba for being the innovative vendor for PPC, and Sony for being the innovative vendor for Palm OS. I was sorry to see both leave their respective platforms.
