Default Gear Diary Reviews the Dopod 838 Pro

http://geardiary.com/?p=7

"Overall, this is a PDA phone that I would recommend to anyone that wants a "can do it all" device. While this might not necessarily be a mobile phone for a PDA beginner, it is intuitive enough that almost anyone could easily learn its functions. I have to admit that I will miss it once its gone�I hope the new user enjoys it as much as I have."



If you're deciding whether to lay down the cash for a Hermes, then be sure to visit Gear Diary and check out Judie's review of the Dopod 838 Pro. She mentioned a RRP of around $1000 USD or $1500 AUD, though if you shop around, you can certainly find it for two-thirds of that price.

I really want to get this device but I've been reading a lot of 'horror stories' about screen alignment and keyboard issues. People are recommending to get the newer batches as these are supposedly fixed [there is also a mod floating around to fix the screen alignment issue].
