Hey. I'm 14 and I got a couple hundred bucks from some relatives so I decided to get a pocket pc. I found a Jornada 548 for $235 at lacc.com . They had trouble getting me the synchronization software but it all worked after that. from Yahoo.com 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. from Amazon.com The HP Jornada is easy to use and learn. I am already receiving infared contacts and files from my clients. from Amazon.com I decided to go with the lince of pocket pcs rather than the palms. From there, it wasn't an easy decision, but after comparing costs, things like memory, the different features, etc. I decided to go with the HP Jornada 548...not one of the newer, but not one of the oldest models either. I've got to say, it was one of the smartest shopping decisions I've ever made. from Amazon.com I recently replaced an aging Palm IIIx with the Jornada 548, and what a great choice! I'll start with the two cons I have about the 548 - it's a bit on the bulky and heavy side compared to other Jornadas and PDAs in general. from Amazon.com I spent about a week looking at various pdas. I talked to a lot of people who own them and i read a lot of customer reveiws. i was torn between four the handspring visor prism,the palm pilot 515, the sony clie c615 and the hp jornada 548. all had very similar features. from Amazon.com There will always be pro's vs con's on every pocket pc depending on what your exactly looking for it to do. My Jornada has an excellent screen, plenty of aftermarket software. Yes, the speed is not a screamer but I didn't exactly pay a screamer price (500+) I find the memory to be adequate as well. from Amazon.com I needed a small word processing tool, some entertainment while hanging around in airports and offices, a mid-range calculator, and some limited spreadsheet capability. The Jornada 548 does all that. Prices have dropped as the 560 series has been released, and I found a Targus foldable keyboard (another very satisfactory product)... from Amazon.com There isn't much software available for ti now though I kept hearing promises of things becoming available in the future. From my experience with Microsoft, we are going to see more things available that requires the new OS and this has a good chance of being left behind. I contacted HP, there is no upgrade and the next version of Jornada that uses the 2002 system is expensive. I'll wait a while longer before trying to upgrade my cheap and reliable Palm and see how the market shakes out. from Amazon.com Just bought HP computer system ... [and a] Jornada 568 ... expecting compatability. from Amazon.com
