i search the internet for the specs and i found that ipaq 2210 and 4150 are both good pdas.
the problem is i can't say that one is better than the other.can someone help me about
1) 2210 has only 3.8 mb of file store area. i read somewhere that 4150 has 13 megs. is that true, if so what causes the 2210 has less memory left in the rom
2) 4150 doesnt have a cf slot,instead it has wi-fi built in and wi-fi is important for me.
so which is better? a built in wi-fi or add on card? of course built in wi-fi could be better but i can plug in another card (i.e. 1 gig cf memory card)
finally 4150 has on board wi-fi advantage while 2210 has cf
3) 4150 has 1000 mAh battery while 2110 has 900mAh. is there a noticable when it comes to runtimes
4) in some forums i read that in some cases 2210 has stability problems. 4150 is a brand new device but does anyone know something about stability of 4150
5) BTW i read all the nice features of mitac mio 558 as some of you did, but did anyone buy one? when will the device hit the market? according to the specs the device is worth waiting but if i'll wait for the mitac , why not wait for x7!!!

sorry for my gramatical errors, i'm not an American

Howdy and wecome :!: :D
I think since the 4150 has the built in wi fi that you may not need a card slot in your ppc.
YOu said having wi fi was important and if that is so, since it is built into the 4150 it makes things easier for you in your pda.

The 2215 has the advantage of having the slot for a wi fi card, and when you dont want to use your wi fi card, you can take it out and put in something else.

It is hard to say which one is better, but I think if I amgoing to buy, iget it for what I will use it themost and for the most flexibility in a ppc. :)

The 2210 runs Windows Mobile 2003 Premium, while the 4150 has WM2k3 Pro. That explains the difference..

Could you explain the difference?

No.

Both devices run WM2k3 Premium. The 4150 has less than 3 megs of File Store.

The difference between Premium and Pro is that Premium has all the Windows software stored in ROM, whereas in Pro you may have to install things such as Media Player or Reader to RAM.
