User Submitted Hewlett Packard Jornada 548 Color Pocket PC Reviews (cont...)Date: 2003-01-22 Good product for my needs The HP Jornada is easy to use and learn. I am already receiving infared contacts and files from my clients. As soon as I learn how to transmit infared files, my work productivity will increase. I do a lot of file sharing and versioning with my colleagues. Getting my calendar synched will be very helpful too. I am a first time buyer of used goods on Amazon - and I am glad I took the chance. Only one disappointment: shipping took much longer than I anticipated (11 days instead of 1-2). Date: 2002-12-01 Excellent Very good Pocket PC - owned quite a while - never any problems! I love it! Date: 2002-06-06 Money Well Spent A very good product. Knowing nothing at all about the world of palm pilots and pocket pc's, I started looking into them. Aside from working full time, I was getting ready to go to school and figured I might need a little help keeping myself and my schedule a little more well organized. My first decision...I decided to go with the lince of pocket pcs rather than the palms. From there, it wasn't an easy decision, but after comparing costs, things like memory, the different features, etc. I decided to go with the HP Jornada 548...not one of the newer, but not one of the oldest models either. I've got to say, it was one of the smartest shopping decisions I've ever made. I've owned mine for about 6 months now, and I have absolutely no regrets. Easy start up, easy to sync, and the memory is more than adequate. For someone hesitant about buying a pocket pc, I'd say this is definitely a good buy! Date: 2002-05-03 Excellent value - great organizer I recently replaced an aging Palm IIIx with the Jornada 548, and what a great choice! I'll start with the two cons I have about the 548 - it's a bit on the bulky and heavy side compared to other Jornadas and PDAs in general. And the record button could be moved down or to the right side, I always seem to mistakenly press it and end up with some muffled sound recordings. On the positive side (and there are many!), the customizable screens and buttons are fantastic. If you're not happy with the pre-determined buttons on your home menu, then simply change them - really, it's that easy. The MP3 player is relatively simple to figure out and download to, and the sound is ok for a PDA; not top quality, but good enough for voice recordings. The recorder does copy sounds as MP3 files, so it can take up a lot of space (the ease of adding memory is a bonus). The feel of the casing is great, I feel like I could drop this and it would bounce right back (though I haven't performed that stunt quite yet!). It has a nice rubber-ish grip on the side that is quite comfortable to hold. The setup is quick and easy, especially if you sync to 2 different machines. Overall, this is in my opinion the best PDA you'll find for [the price]. Forget the Palm - go with the Jornada!
