User Submitted HP iPAQ 4155 Pocket PC Reviews (cont...)

The third-party applications and data sources give it an enormous breath and functionality. But the deciding factor for this particular model was: no antenna to stick out, and yet both BlueTooth and Wi-Fi compatible.

Have no doubt about purchasing this excellent productivity tool - you will not regret it!

Simply Outstanding
iPAQ 4155 in my opinion is simply the best handheld device on the market right now. Combination of ideal size, full features and excellent performance is almost hard to believe. I've used it for about a month now and I am very satisfied.

I use almost all of the advanced features including Bluetooth connectivity to my Sony T610 cell phone for remote internet access (this setup works quite well with T-Mobile data account), wi-fi networking at work and home, terminal services for control over other computers, data synchronization through wi-fi, VPN connectivity, etc etc. And of course, email and other related scheduling features work very well. All of this with a familiar Windows interface that is, I am happy to report, stable if not entirely intuitive.

There are few relatively small gripes, like I wish the back cover of the unit was silver (aluminum) to match the front, the cradle could have been better designed no to put so much tension on the connector, more memory would have been nice (this, however, can be remedied quite easily by adding a non intrusive SD memory chip), the OS integration could be more stable (thankfully it is easy to recover from the rare freeze), the included case needs a belt clip, and such. However, these should not deter anyone form enjoying the fine product that 4155 is.

You can use this thing as a mp3 player, use instant messenger, add a digital camera through the SDIO expansion slot, install software and games, read books, do work with email, excel, word, surf the net, connect to networks, and on and on... If you can imagine a miniature laptop pc, you are getting the picture. It is not however, an exact duplication of laptop or desktop capabilities. But it is a remarkably useful and powerful tool.
One word of advice: it takes patience and determination to make it do what you want it to do, particularly with more advanced features. But if you like this kind of stuff, then the capabilities are definitely there for you to use. If you're not technically savvy, then have someone knowledgeable help you set up everything you want and DO A BACK UP of it!!! Once you got that, you have one very powerful tool.
Verrrry Cool.

Ipaq 4155
I have the ipaq 4155 for 1 week now, replacing my dell axim5 that I did love. But the size of the 4155 changes everything : its always in my pocket rather than in my briefcase.
My screen is not yellowish, little clearer and sharper than the Axim5 one. Application much faster, including videos and flight sim. Wifi works fine, Bluetooth not tested yet.
I really love it, very happy having buying it.
Minors Cons (to find some) :
- HP case : not to big, acceptable but not wonderfull (I'd like flap like clié or first palm III)
- the stylus is hard to get form its hole (you need nails...)
- plugging to the cradle is not very resistant and clever (you scratch the cradle every time and landing is difficult)

NB : As no accessories for the 4100 family are in stores yet, I bought a HP1910 sync and charge cable to synchronise at home and it works fine !
Messenger needs a patch to work, and hp picture viewer is excellent.

A Pocket PC that finally works
I've tried older Palm products and Pocket PC's in the past but nothing was worth it for me to carry around. But I've finally found something that works. The HP Ipaq 4155 is great. I really needed a PDA/pocket PC but didn't know what to get. I wanted wireless and like the windows interface. I liked the idea pocket word and excel and don't like graffiti. This was a bit pricey but I took a gamble and am happy I did!!!

It has been super easy to use and understand. Syncing is a cinch with Outlook. The software that is included is quite handy and there is a lot of other auto-syncing software that is available for free that gives you daily news, movie reviews, maps etc. It's almost like being online.

I have had no stalls or any problems that I can list. The wireless networking connected to my Linksys router without a single complication. And surfing the web works about as well as I expected. Pages load but you have to scroll around to see everything so I can find what I want but it's not as easy as a realy computer obviously. I have yet to try bluetooth. The screen and interface are great. It includes an extra stylus which is nice. All in all this has been everything I hoped for so far. If you're in the market for a Pocket PC and want features such as bluetooth and wireless networking then don't hesitate to get this one!!!

Wowee!
I just got this PDA and I must admit... after jumping back and forth from Palm to PocketPC for the last two years trying to find a device that fits... I do believe I've been smitten. Cupid must have been packing a pistol, because I am in love with this device. What mare can you ask for powerful, compact, and connectivity for days. The OS is stable on this device and I have yet to have any problems worth mentioning. The latter could not be said for the Toshiba E740, Ipaq 1910, Tungsten T, T2, or T3. If you are in the market for a PDA and you are looking for form and function, you cannot pass this little diddy up.
