Which PocketPc is best

[jklfafa]

:D
Its hard to decide which pocket pc is best, money is no obeject
I think I'm leaning toward te Toshiba e740
its well rounded slim and it has a removable battery unlike ipaq, and it has cf and sd, and it appears to be the thinest with these features, what do you guys think? Any suggestions?

[Dave Conger]

Don't you find it hard to make such a decision when the only device you can actually currently get your hands on is the Toshiba? You never know what features (like larger batteries) might be coming in the iPAQ.

Though I make that statement, I agree the Toshiba is a interesting pick, though I am also interested to at least see the Acer. I realize you said money is no object, but in the real world when it is, this could be a nice little device if it is inexpensive.

Too late...I couldnt wait and I brought the Toshiba 740 cuz it was one of the smallest and most well rounded
removable battery!!!
cf and sd
nice and small
801.11
while the other ones didnt have this and that

One question is does the toshiba e740 have flash rom?????
I havent read anywhere that they did!!!!
That scares me....flash rom is important

Every Pocket PC 2002 device has to have Flash ROM - so don't worry. :-)

is it just me ...or is the toshiba e740 only lasting 4 hours max
please tell me what you guys aregetting...it would be perfect, but i guess i need to buy more battery packs, anyone know where i can get some?

[Peter Parnes]

I don't I get even 4 hours, more like 1.5 hours with wavelan turned on.

If in the USA, you can order batteries from shoptoshiba.com and if in Sweden Dustin just told me that the accessories will show up "soon".

/P

[jklfafa]

thats what i've done, i buying another standard battery pack
so i should get at least 8 hours running at bare minimums


does anyone think that if they get a new os, the battery life will change dramatically?

[Peter Parnes]

does anyone think that if they get a new os, the battery life will change dramatically?

Yes, if the OS starts doing halt and perhaps switching CPU speed (just turning off TURBO mode) would (I guess) make a diffrerence. How big I don't know as the CPU is just one of the power eaters.

I think having a poll is a good idea but we arent able to get our hands on the Fujitsu Loox, so I feel the poll isnt going to be accurate. ONce we can go out and play with the looks and buy it, then we can have a more accurate poll since the loox is already included in the poll.
