I couldn't resist and I got a new HP 4155.

The only bad things I can see so far are:
1. The stylus and battery cover are very stiff - probably will get better with use.
2. Yellowing of screen at some angles. Not noticable at all when I look at the screen at an angle I'd use it at.
3. The cradle is kinda hard to get the device into the cradle.

Other than that, the fact that it fits right into my 1910 Vaja case is great!

It also seems a neighbour of mine has a Wi-Fi access point -I'm trying to resist the temptation of using it.

This device is really cool! I'm so excited :)

Now I have to figure out all the software that will and will not work...

Welcome to the club! For what it's worth, I don't think I had problems with any of the software I had on my PPC 2002 Axim...

I also gave in about 10 days ago and bought the 4150. No regrets whatsoever.

I noticed this too. You are correct - these both get better with use - albeit slowly.


2. Yellowing of screen at some angles. Not noticable at all when I look at the screen at an angle I'd use it at.

Par for the course with the 415x. My previous PDA was a 1935 which had the same characteristic. It's really very minor.


3. The cradle is kinda hard to get the device into the cradle.

Dido. It took about a week before this got to where I like it.

Enjoy!

Dido?

I noticed that my 4150 was harder to get in the cradle at first as well. Two months or so later, I've either gotten better at it, or it's become more forgiving.

Yes, I am syncing wirelessly. But I've got to charge the battery sometimes.

Don't tell me your charging wirelessly? :wink:
