- Would this page benefit from pictures of the various models? I have a 4300 series that I can submit a picture of - does wikipedia need pictures of PDA's from each model? --Oreckel 23:08, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Windows perceived as liability not advantage, re Palm Pilot
The following sentence is debatable:
- The device is the main competition to the Palm Pilot, but provides more multimedia capabilities and the familiar Microsoft Windows interface.
No evidence is cited re purported multimedia advantage, and no mention that interface is not really that familiar re Windows, and many see it as a liability, esp wrt iPaq reputation for crashing, memory hogging, and being slow.
- Ok - then rewrite it. Example:
- The device is the main competition to the Palm Pilot, but provides more multimedia capabilities and the familiar Microsoft Windows interface. However, iPaqs also hold a reputation for memory hogging and crashing. --Oreckel 04:11, 18 July 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Update needed
The article currently says This iPAQ is due for launch in the second-half of April 2005. Can someone with the rrequired knowledge update it, please? Andy Mabbett 13:31, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

- are there any reports of Linux running on the h6500 series? 81.63.63.37 09:05, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
[edit] SuperWaba in the See also section?
Should this really be there? It's not significantly tied enough to the iPAQ product line in my opinion. Brianreading 07:32, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Marketing tone
Is it just me who gets the feeling that this article has a marketing tone plastered all over it?... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 81.234.56.53 (talk • contribs) 13:30, 6 June 2007.
- I don't see how this article reads like marketing. Tuvok[T@lk/Improve me] 17:05, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] History, predecessors
Can anyone who knows a bit more write a sentence or two about Compaq Aero handhelds which were basically the same thing, only labelled differently. I used to own a Compaq Aero 1550 one day and i wanted to find out which year this might have been (to calculate in how many years has this Win CE not gotten any better...)
[edit] New "Russian programmer" stuff
Can anyone confirm this "Russian programmer"? Any idea who? I'm at a loss for finding information about these "upgrades" an anon inserted info about today. Tuvok[T@lk/Improve me] 03:08, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] USB Host / USB on the Go
There seems to be conflicting reports on whether the iPAQ 210 series supports USB on the Go, or can operate as a USB host. A customer service rep apparently said the 210 could act as a USB host and connect to external hard drives, USB drives, etc. But it's likely that the service rep had no idea what she was talking about, being a service rep and all... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.51.247.188 (talk) 02:23, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] 210 has CF slot
The iPAQ 210 has a Compact Flash slot as well as the SDIO slot.
