Summary: Slim and functional
Review: I've had my iPAQ 1910 for about 2 weeks and I am 100% satisfied with the unit and what it came with. Some of the reviews that complained about the lack of a docking cradle (don't need it) and how the software to hot sync (ok, I'm an old Palm user) with your pc stink are both very much over stated. The 1910 comes with a charger with a USB connection. I just lay the 1910 on my pc's tower where it is safe and out of the way, when hot syncing. The cradle on my Palm was always in danger of getting knocked over (once after knocking it over I had to buy a new cradle because a little plastic piece broke off and could not be glued back on). This unit is slimmer and lighter than the Palm Vx. I like that it has the capability to replace the battery. The Palm Vx I had to replace after 3 years has an internal battery and guess what? I found out that lithium batteries typically last about 3 or 4 years and in the Vx can't readily be replaced (supposedly the factory might be able to). Besides the weight and size, it was the great color that really impressed me. I looked at the Palm Tungsten and other color Palms and they looked washed out to me (and cost about the same as the 1910).

Summary: Adequate for simplisitic mind!
Review: Well, this is my first pocket pc,before I used the palm m105 which adequate for my work. Yes, it lacks the bells and whistle, like cf slot, short battery life and peculiar headphone jack, , and if you dont use wifi or GPS, this is the pda for you. Regarding stability, mmmm, well I have never yet to encounter any problem. "hopefully not". It is small and sturdy with a beautiful screen!

Summary: A great product with poor support
Review: Being so light, small, nice-looking, and having so many features, I am surprised that I don't see this model more often in the hands of my colleagues. I've had it for a couple of months, and it is great. Writing is very easy, navigating is easier, pictures look great and sound is just perfect.
The only down side of it is that I have been looking for a decent case and still haven't been able to find one. My stylus broke off and I went to four major stores looking for it, and couldn't find it either. What is wrong with accessories for this model? Why give us such a hard time?
Overall I can say it was a great purchase and I would go for it again if I had to.

Summary: Great Device - Good Price - Operates Perfectly
Review: I'm a long time Palm user graduating from a 2 1/2 year old Palm III color PDA. I looked at PDA's for almost 8 months trying to decide on a PDA, PDA/phone, Tablet PC, etc...etc... Well, after seeing the 1910 in a store and playing with it a bit, I liked it for the build, styling, and size. It's a nice and neat device that fit's easily into a shirt pocket or day planner and feels well built. The screen is just flat out incredible! Great contrast and brigtness and the color is very sharp and vivid. I'm not sure why people have had any trouble getting this device to sync wih their PC. I run XP professional and Outlook (must use Outlook, no Outlook Express). I popped in the disk, hit the install button, plugged in the cradle and PDA and it popped up a sync menu. I selected what I wanted synchronized and within a minute or less it was all sync'ed up. Over 200 contacts and addresses and some files. I love it! Great design and a really nice step up from Palm. The touch screen is WAY better and the OS is superior to Palm in my opinion. It does everything I expected it to do...........and hell, the accessories aren't even out for it yet....just wait a few months....

Summary: raspberries for the ipaq 1910
Review: To paraphrase a great Latin quotation... I saw, I bought, I returned. A big thumbs down for the HP ipaq 1910. Yes, nice screen, nice graphics - but no instruction book. You had to download it from the CD which was enclosed. Is this user-friendly?? I think not. I never could "sync" the thing to my computer, either. My friend also had a problem syncing hers and finally had to get a friend who was in the computer business to do it - and he had problems with it, too. I barely had the thing for three weeks when it crashed - white screen. Tried everything I could think of to get it going again to no avail - so it went back to the store where I bought it and I got a refund. Good riddance to it. Lots of luck if you buy one - you'll need it.

Summary: This is a toy
Review: I don't normally write reviews, but this PDA is not ready for the business world. I've went thru 3 palms in 5 years and they've done exactly what was advertised. I broke my last palm and decided to buy the HP 1910 because of its color screen and small size. The screen IS great and it fits easily in my shirt pocket. That is the end of the positive comments. (note: I sync pocket outlook to desktop outlook using active sync and use desktop outlook during the weekday and the PDA only when away from my desk. When I refer to outlook below I mean desktop outlook unless I say pocket outlook) In general this device is no where near as stable as any of the palms I've used. In the first day I had "rebooted" the 1910 more times than all my palms combined. There is a hardware problem - if you put a SD memory card in it and have any alarms, evidently at midnight it wakes up to look at the alarms and then hangs because of the memory card. I've tried 2 different SD card vendors and it hangs on both. If you need a memory card, you have to pull it out each night or it will hang ON and kill the battery leaving you with restoring the device the next day. Pocket Outlook is pretty but useless unless you have very simple needs. I had to purchase a 3rd party PIM to actually perform anything close to what I had out of the box with the palm. I thought this was the primary function of a PDA? There is a problem with the syncing of task alarms (this is a "feature"). If you are used to putting alarms on tasks you can no longer do it. The PDA sets all alarms to the same time and syncs this time back to Outlook so not only is the PDA wrong, but so is outlook. The palm doesn't support this, but it also never screwed up outlook. Some how the PDA corrupts the calendar alarms in outlook so they stop working randomly and unexpectedly. I can't count now the number of meetings I've missed because alarms on my calendar in outlook simply stopped working. I come in the next day, start outlook and all the missed alarms pop up at once. At least I know who to call and apologize to. Active sync will simply stop running. Usually I have to reboot the 1910 and it will restart. Today, the connections config magically changed and I burned an hour troubleshooting why suddenly I could no longer sync. This is a cute toy but I need a business tool that works solidly day in and day out. I should have dumped this when I could still return it. I'm going back to palm and selling this...

Summary: ipaq 1910 freezes and drains the battery - a common problem
Review: very promising machine with one big disadvantage, which HP does want to admit in: there is a basic hardware/software problem which causes the machine to turned on (probably due to reminder) and then drains the battery. there is no solution for that, and it happens in many machines (including mine).Be aware. This symptom means that you don't have a reliable machine, and I believe that this is the main reason why I recommend to buy a different brand.

Summary: Compact & Light weight - Great Pocket PC
Review: Very light and compact of all the Pocket PC's that I have seen.
Easy to use and has all the features that I need except for a vibrator alert for messages. I work in a factory and can't hear the alerts.
At [this price] it should include a cradle HP should be ashamed not to inlude one. I have yet to find a good cover that isn't bulky.
Buy it you will like it.

Summary: Nice Hardware - Software Doesn't Work
Review: Well, it's been almost three months since I got the iPAQ 1910. The hardware is nice in terms of ergonomics and display. If the software that went with it and the stability of the machine were any good, I'd give it 4 stars. The problem is that the Outlook version supplied with the machine still doesn't work right (can't retrieve e-mail from a POP server correctly) and the machine has a curious habit of turning itself on (or off depending on its mood) and, if it's in the (extra cost) cradle, the ActiveSync software ceases to work when that happens. After numerous attempts to install (and re-install) Outlook and ActiveSync I have sort of worked out a compromise (use Outlook Express for e-mail and reboot the 1910 when it gets in a bad mood). I also have something of a relationship with a Microsoft tech who has been working on the Outlook problem for months to no avail. When I bought the iPAQ, I saw a review commenting negatively on the software. "Just another crank who doesn't know what they're doing" I thought. Wrong. I've been dealing with computer systems and software for several decades and this is the worst product I've seen.

Summary: If equipped with a faster CPU, this would be a perfect one
Review: I selected this one mainly because of its size. I don't play game, so 200 MHZ CPU is acceptable (but is little slow when you view pictures). I use this mainly for playing mp3 files and reading ebooks. The 48 MB user accessible memory is very limited (especially after you installed some applications) so you have to buy extrnal memory card. This unit only takes SD card, which is more expensive than CF card. The non-standard 2.5 mm headphone jack is not very convinient. This unit comes with a cheap headphone matches the 2.5 mm jack. To use your own headphone you can buy a 2.5 to 3.5 converter at "your local electronics store". But I'd rather bear with these just for the ultra-compact size. Overall it's a very good PDA. Haven't had any problem with it yet (one month). The only complaint is the speed - sometime it does take a second or more to switch between applications. The build-in speaker is loud enough for indoor, personal listening. But if you want to use it when driving a car the volumn is not loud enough - this disappointed me a little bit. I bought it from Amazon for "a good price" and there is a ... mail-in rebate. The number #1 competitor would be DELL Axim. For same price (with coupon and promotion) you get 400 MHZ CPU and dule expansion card. But DELL is so bulky. It can't beat this lovly small device. But if you don't care about the size that much go with DELL because it's such a good deal. A leather case is a nice addition to this PDA. Though HP doesn't sell one,
