What aspect of using your PPC annoys you the most?

For me it is the following:

Battery power
Speed & Memory restrictions.
Connectivity

It seems that whenever a new model is released I have to weigh-up the expense of upgrading vs the benefits of improvements in the above areas!! I must admit, however, the HP 5550 was worth the price - but for how long (till something better comes along)?

Any thoughts?

Battery life is first, and then screen/digitizer - the screen is fairly dim and hard to see, and the digitizer is inaccurate.

I'd say battery. When you start using the wifi you start to drain fast.

The battery especially when using WiFi.

I'm pretty tolerant but the one thing that really annoys me is that transcriber is just not quite good enough. It works pretty well but even with my pretty neat writing it still makes too many mistakes.

Battery life, by far. I would hate to run out of battery power and being locked out of my iPAQ. It never happened to me, though, but the thought of it in the back of my mind is driving me nuts.
Number two on my list would be input. I have tried everything a ailable. With the exeption of aan external keyboard, all methods of text input have their problems. I'm currently trying out SPB's fullscreen keyboard. I hope I'm getting faster once I have more practice.

Three things bother me:
- Display Resolution. I would love to have 640x480
- Battery Life with WiFi. I would love to get 10 hours battery life using WiFi
- A Pocket Office Suite (a complete one)

If you don't mind digging really deeply in your pocket, Softmaker will have one before too long.

Other than short battery life with WiFi, my next biggest peeve is having to constantly swap my CF and WiFi cards. I will solve the problem in due course by buying a PPC with built in WiFi. Since I would only buy a two slot device, I currently have a choice of only one, the e750, which I don't really want.

Like every one else I wish I had more battery longevity.

However, today my complaint is that Pocket Internet Explorer has trouble with certain web pages. After posting on a hardware forum with my Ipaq today pie was not working at all. It didn't like somethinig about that forum.
