User Submitted Toshiba e335 Pocket PC Reviews (cont...)

Its a good, good machine, and has no limitations for my everyday use.

Regarding two previous reviews with negative points-- let me address them because its faulty user error, not faulty devices.

- Difficult to turn on and off, and screen goes dim.
Simple on/off- one button on the top. Not fancy. And if your screen goes dim, you probably have the backlight setting to something weak. When the unit first powers on, the backlight is on full brightness, then after about 2 sec. it goes to your default setting.. which you have probably switched to lower brightness.

- Battery power. Ive had no issues. The only time my battery went down with the unit turned off, is when I had an alarm notice going off for a day (from my own settings). Other than that--- Ive got mine in my hand and its been off the charger for almost 48hours, and battery is 94% full!!

Traveling with a Useless PDA
Extremely poorly engineered product from Toshiba. I have experienced data loss problems multiple times after the battery runs low in 24 hours. The data is stored in RAM and no backup power supply is designed into the product. No warning is given as the PDA just refuses to start up. Even when the unit is turned off, the power is drained in 24 hours. This is a different issue from the e740 recall which loses data when changing the battery.

PDA's are used by traveling business professionals!.

Do NOT purchase the e335. I should have reviewed all the discussion boards which clearly express the problem with Toshiba PDA's.
I have owned many Toshiba products, but this has turned me away from Toshiba forever.
BTW the support people where quick to answer my questions and concerns, unfortunately their hands are tied to resolve the problem.

Traveling with a this PDA
Poorly engineered product from Toshiba. I have experienced data loss problems multiple times after the battery runs down in only 24 to 30 hours. The data is stored in RAM and no backup power supply is designed into the product. Most PDA's are used by traveling business professionals. BTW the support people where quick to answer my questions and concerns, unfortunately their hands tied to resolve the problem. If you do not travel and can plugin everyday, this PDA is a good value.

This product is great
At first I was not sure if I should buy this prodcut or stick to Palm, which is what I was using before this. After taking the step to buy this product I am fully satisfied. There is so much more I am able to do with this PC than I was with my Palm, and I know that there is so much more that I can do with this product that I have not figured out yet which makes it much more interesting. I have not had any problems with it.

It is a quite good pocket PC, but...
Generally, I was impressed by the slim design. The price is affordable, and the resolution and color was good. However, the battary seems a problem. Also, the power button is quite difficult to turn power on and off. The color screen changes to dull color suddenly. Otherwise, it is a good pocket PC.
