Since converting over to the Pocket PC at the introduction of the first IPAQ's I've been surprised/shocked at how often I have to soft reset the device to correct a problem. I recently upgraded from a 3835 to a 5455, and I have to say I am resetting, rebuilding, and battery yanking more often that I ever thought possible. 8O

I know alot of the quirks I face with the new 5455 are problems specific to that model. Having never used other companies PocketPC's I am curious if my disatisfaction is limited to just the IPAQ models, or if everyone with a Pocket PC OS faces numerous RESETs to fix problems :?:

Is this an OS issue? :crazyeyes:

Thanks!

From what I've heard, the 5450 is indeed quirkier about needing soft-resets than just about any other brand. I hope HP releases a ROM update to solve the issues once and for all...

It's not an OS thing, as most other Pocket PCs don't need anywhere as much maintenance.
