User Submitted Hewlett Packard Jornada 547 Color Pocket PC ReviewsDate: 2006-01-08 HP Support not there for me. I bought my HP 548 in good faith. Paid good money. When it came time to buy a battery, I got shuffled around the planet talking to the folks (support) in India whom were polite but didn't provide any answers. The result was, I was to the forced to buy (on my own) a questionable battery from another source which doesn't work (it seems to be counterfeit). I'm glad Carly is gone from HP. HP: How about supporting your products from now on ? Only thing is...I won't be among your customers. Ever. Date: 2005-12-16 Not so much a review.. as a "What the?" in the description for this device, Amazon says "Date first available at Amazon.com: September 4, 1973" wow.. I mean, I didn't know Amazon was even around then, let alone using their time machine to beam products from the future to their catalog that shouldn't even exist then.. BRAVO!! Date: 2003-10-22 Quick shipment, but now there is a problem w/no response. The product was shipped quickly. But now I cannot get the Pocket PC to connect to any PC. I have emailed the seller numerous times about this and they will not respond to me. Amazon is abolutely no help either, they will not do anything to help me. If I ever do get the problem fixed, I will change the bad rating for the seller. Date: 2003-02-19 HP Jornada 547/548 Great PDA, beats out any palm type device by a longshot in capability expandability. Only draw back is ever shrinking selection of aftermarket goodies for it due to the processor. Date: 2003-02-03 No Pocket PC 2002 For its day the 548 was a stunning piece of equipment. I have been a Jornada 548 owner since week 1 of its release. I am disappointed to report, however, that the older Jornada models have been left in the dust by the Compaq-HP merger. Ipaq'ers get an upgrade from the Pocket PC OS to the newer, marginally better Pocket PC 2002 OS. Although the OS is only moderately more useful, it is aesthetically more pleasing and is symbolic of the fact that the 548 will receive little attention or support from HP/Compaq ever again. Also, the lack of back up batteries is quite a nuisance when you lose all drivers and software because you forgot to recharge the 548. Furthermore, and this may be my error, I never found a car charger for it which would have been useful given the adequate, but not stellar battery life. I would suggest buying a newer piece of equipment, its worth the dough.
