Pros: Appearance, price, size, performance Cons: Activesync drops out, can't upgrade to PPC2003 The Bottom Line: Buy it if you don't need all the wireless options or PPC 2003, but want a compact PocketPC that performs well. from Shopping.com Pros: Appearance, price, size, performance Cons: Activesync drops out, can't upgrade to PPC2003 The Bottom Line: Buy it if you don't need all the wireless options or PPC 2003, but want a compact PocketPC that performs well. from Shopping.com Pros: Fits in my back pocket. Recording and playback capabilitiy. from Shopping.com Pros: Slim, intuitive for PC users, useful features for most every traveling user. Cons: Powers on/off erratically. from Shopping.com I bought this unit about 2 years ago and love the features it has. Unfortunately some days the battery and the unit works fine, the next day it loses the entire battery and the unit is completely dead with no data left. Basically on good days the unit uses about 10% battery life, on bad days the entire battery will go all at once. from Amazon.com I bought the e330 and about 25 days later, the unit refused to turn on. The battery had been FULLY charged. from Amazon.com I purchased my pocket PC on April 2003. This is so far the worst mistake I've ever made, it crashes constantly and it looses all the information stored in file at all times. from Amazon.com I bought the E330 because of features, form and price over the HP1910 which was a BIG mistake.

Toshiba provide no ROM support and if you want wireless you have to use Toshiba's overpriced Bluetooth card.

Here is my letter to Toshiba.

Official Complaint. Why does the SD slot on my E330 not operate as SDIO, why is there no ROM Upgrade and why is there no product support available for my E330?

This is a relatively new machine, I only purchased it last May and yet when I contacted customer support in June about the lack of a real SDIO Toshiba already did not provide any support for it.

from Amazon.com The PDA's batty level is high. Once it was at 96%. The only way to use it again is to do a hard reset - which erases all the data and to recharge it. This has happened several times. from Amazon.com It isn't the latest and greatest, but you get good value for your money. If you can live without WiFi and Bluetooth this is the way to go. The battery life is enough for about six hours of hard use. There are a few recommendations that I have, upgrade to ActiveSync 3.7 and do a soft reset before syncing. from Amazon.com
