Summary: Power & Features at Unreal Price
Review: I bought the 3135 at the end of August. With the Compaq and Audible Rebate its an unreal bargain. As a simple organizer
it more than meets your needs. With a 128Mb card I bought, it becomes a very capable Mp3 player. Color is nice no doubt about it but is it worth the extra big bucks?? I wish I could get the free upg to Pocket PC 2002, but I might shell out for it anyway. With AvantGo, Audible and the Media player I couldn't ask for a better handheld.

Review: I have used other pda's - palm...
This pda gives you the most power for your money!
Its easyer to input your data in this window CE based pda and you can play MP3s, view web pages, make voice memos, read e-books.
look for a PALM priced [price] dallars that plays MP3s and takes voice memos

Summary: Best value for the money!!!
Review: I am very impressed with Compaq and the iPAQ3135. This product is nothing but pure quality throughout!

Having upgraded from an old Everex Manager CE unit, the transition to the iPAQ3135 has been nothing but sheer pleasure! I am running Calligrapher 6.0, one of the best real time handwriting recognition software packages on the market, for my input method and I am not having to worry about battery life for the first time in a long time.

In fact, when compared to earlier units like the old Everex Manager CE units, the battery life for this unit is incredible. I have already subjected my unit to a battery stress test by using it for 13 continuous hours. Usage included several alarms at full volume, and 2 continuous hours of backlight opperation before the low power warning was issued.

This is a CE unit that will not require steady use of the charger!

Summary: IPAQ - The Best PDA!!
Review: I was a loyal Palm fan for several years. I loved my Palm IIIx which I upgraded to 8 MB with the TRG-Pro memory card. It worked great and I enjoyed using it. When I decided that I wanted a color display, I naturally thought of getting a Palm. But after months of research and testing-out every possibility in many stores, I decided that the Palm 505 screen really was too dark - and that the Sony Clie 610/710 was the way to go(they are beautiful). Until I started playing with the Compaq ipaq 3635, that is. Let me tell you - the ipaq is wonderful. The color screen is gorgeous and very bright. The features are numerous and intuitively easy to use because they are windows-based. It is tremendous fun. The expansion possibilities are limitless. Although I still like the Palm OS, I really think that Pocket PC is terrific and will eventually overtake Palm. Incidentally, getting your palm data to your new ipaq will be easy. Just intall Chapura's Pocket Mirror and it will hotsinc to MS Outlook. Then, after you load your new Pocket PC desktop software (ActiveSync 3.1), it will transfer all your contacts, calandar, notes, and to-dos to your new ipaq. Its a breeze. Incidentally, upgrading to ActiveSync 3.5 (a free download on the Microsoft website) fixed all those annoying little hotsync problems people reported. The Ipaq is a great PDA and tremendously fun to have and use. You won't regret it - especially with the $50 rebate!

Summary: Compaq iPAQ 3135 Monochrome Pocket PC Bundle--great!
Review: WHO NEEDS COLOR? With color LCD's all over the place, don't feel like you are missing out. You can't read them in sunlight, so forget about using them outside. With the 3135, you can view it clearly anywhere. The backlight is superb in darker conditions, so don't worry. Plays MP3's--Just like the color ones. Edit word and Excel documents--Just like the color ones. Battery life? don't even think about leaving the adapter/charger home with a color model. I can go 4 days without a recharge with this monochrome monster. And that is with some seriously hard core usage. We're talking hours of ebook reading and solitare playing. I love this device, and you will too. Don't waste your money on a color PDA. You will get less for your money than you expect. With the 3135, you get more than you pay for--MP3 player, image viewer, ebook reader, and the list goes forever.

Summary: Good unit with dull display
Review: I like PocketPC. But I was disappointed with 3135 dull display. I expected white background and black text. Instead I found gray on gray. Also, the unit with the expansion Jacket is quite big.

Otherwise the unit was very good, solid, stable, sync worked fine.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Bye bye Palm
Review: After using a Palm for over two years, I was given a IPAQ to use. I never really like Windows CE much, but after using it for a few days, I LOVE IT! I can't wait till I can upgrade the OS to 2002 next month.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: One week shy for the free upgrade - unfair
Review: I received mine less than a week before the deadline for the free upgrade and now I'm not eligible. I think it's unfair of compaq to do that to us.
