Very good PDA, few drawbacks
I purchased this PDA about a week ago. I am extremely satisfied with it.-Performance
Very good. It plays Family Guy Divx's without a glitch. All the programs open fast, and the windows media player is very good. -Storage
The 64 (theoretical) megabytes are more than enough to install as many programs as you want, although if you want to watch movies or listen to mp3's, you might want to think about getting a 128 or 256 secure digital card. -Screen
Very bright with nice colors. If you look at it from below, there is a yellow tint. This bothers some people, but I personally like the yellow. -Battery
A big plus with this PDA is the removable battery. That way, you can always replace it with another. The PDA has a built-in NMH battery, so that you will not lose any data when swapping batteries. Replacement batteries can be found for about $30. Battery life is very long, about 2 1/2 hours of watching a movie. Pros:
Fast processor
Enough memory
Good screen
Very small Removable battery
Lots of buttons Cons:
non-standard audio plug (adapter included)
No scroll button on side

DONT BUY THIS HUNK OF #$%@
I've had my ipaq 1945 for about 3 mounths, the first day i used it, the screen chiped, and today, for the first time, I dropped my ipaq and the screen broke into a million shards of glass. HP now wantes to charge me $200!!!! to fix the sreeen. DONT BUY FROM IPAQ!! Unless you wanna throw $300 down the drain.

Very good product in its classs
Purchased HP ipaq1945 from Local Office Depot morethan 6 months ago for $260. I am very much impressed with the performance and light weight. I have never found the Yellow Tint problem on my PDA till now. I am not sure what exactly this problem is. Anyways things are working fine as expected. In this 6 months i just rebooted the PDA only once. Windows 2003 OS is working very good, a bit surprise to seee as at last this another form of Windows. Great One !!!!!!!!

Run, don't walk, from this clunker
Bought an IPAQ 1945 six months ago, nothing but trouble. Now on my second cycle of problems, already having serviced the unit once. Device will reset itself, losing all of the data you have on it, without warning. HP support is horrendous, off-shore call center in India with lots of canned answers, not insight, and difficulty with English. Buy another PDA, this one is trouble, unless you don't really need all those phone numbers and appointments, in which case you wonder why you are wasting your money on a PDA.

Great Product
I got the iPAQ 1945 because of it's size, bluetooth, speed, price, and looks. I definately like what I got, been using it since Christmas, got an SDIO 802.11b card ( sandisk ), works fine. Awaiting for handhelds.org to finish the port of my beautiful Linux to this. =) Overall, it really is a great product. Great screen, great buttons. I don't know what the hell people are talking about when they are saying a Yellow tint. Mine has no such thing.
