Summary: temperamental
Comment: The 5455 has character. All features work fine after taking it apart and removing the vibrator module. Finally, after having the untit in storage for 6 months I am able to synchronise again. All those guys who are not happy with the HP IPAQ. I need the upgrade to 2003 from 2002. Any help is appreciated as to where I can get a free download. Microsoft should allow a free download after all the trouble with the unit by so many people all over the world.

cheers

Summary: Don't buy this machine if you're a busy professional
Comment: I bought the 5455 hoping it would save me time and deliver a lot of functions other devices could not.

First, it came with no meaningful manual, and the operating system was rendered worthless requiring a upgrade which then took away features.

Second, forget about connecting to the internet with this device unless you are a rocket scientist.

Third, the original battery was defective and I was sent to India to try to get it replaced.

Finally, unless you have hours to waste trying to understand this device, try something else. I'm of the computer generation with over 20 years experience on PC's dating back to the 80's when systems were very difficult. This device is a tremendous waste of time and money.

Summary: sounds like good features but lots of problems
Comment: I bought this product 2 years back. But frankly speaking I haven't used all of its features. within a few days of buying the battery was losing power for no reason at all and the customer support replaced a new battery. But later the unit started resetting on its own. during this process none of the other buttons are functional and it is a forced reset losing all the information. Now since i am out of warranty i am expected to get it repaired for a fee. we will end up spending more than its original price for the maintenance. i never even had the chance to use all of its features till now because of all the reasons. i don't think its worth spending more on the unit.

Summary: iPAQ 5455 Review - cool features but poor battery life
Comment: The iPAQ 5455 seemlessly integrates with MS Outlook on one computer but has issues with syncing up to a second PC. User selection for data overwrite is limited (handheld overwrite PC or PC overwrite handheld data). Overall features are really neat, some stuff included is kinda useless for the average electronics gizmo but the battery life is horrible. If you're planning to go out of town for a couple of days, you'll need a charger (get 2 - one for the rental car and one for the hotel room). Extended life battery is recommended as is an extended service plan if one is offered to you at time of purchase. I had to have mine sent back and 2 other people in my office also had to during their first few weeks of use. The convenience offered by the available features outweighs the annoyances of losing data due to the battery dying.

Summary: Good Value/Powerful Pocket PC
Comment: These guys who are palm lovers just have a hard time switching to the Pocket PC! I am a switcher. The transition was tough at first back a couple of years ago. The Palm OS is surely faster and more user friendly but has much less to offer. This IPAQ is a powerful one and the screen quality, handwritting recognition and wifi options are unmatched by any Palm device. I have not found much use yet for the Bluetooth and the security features are good but I don't know that I need them. Still, what a great tool for word processing, spreadsheets, web surfing and more. Lighten up Palm boy!
