Summary: Best features for the buck
Review: It's not the fastest, it's not the lightest, it doesn't have the best screen, it doesn't even have USB sync... But, for about half the price of those "best" units, Jornada 525 does everything well that's expected of any PocketPC. I bought Viking 128MB CF expension card (here @ Amazon) to store all files (so I can allocate more memory to run programs) and still have enough room left over for over an hour of MP3 music to enjoy with pair of good headphones. With only a serial connection and slower processor than the competition, this unit is for those of us who are patient and will use it mainly as a secondary portable device to compliment our primary portable notebook computers. All in all, I am completely satisfied and it's all I expected and more.

Summary: Watch Out!!
Review: Its a great tool for those who simply needed this type of technology. Strong potential for storing data in word and excel formats not to mention outlook as contact database. MP3 capability is absolutely a plus especially when 128MB expanded memory card thru its featured compact flash port is added. Not meant for serious visual multimedia although it can accommodate the needed application for that purpose. Good and wise investment especially when you're always on the go keeping abreast with information/data required remotely from main/home pc. This is a practical personal item to keep for a good period of time considering the pace of technological advancement nowadays.

Summary: Excelent form my purpose
Review: I`m from Buenos Aires, Argentina. I bought my Jornada 525 on november 2001 and I`m realy happy with this unit.
It is really elegant for business and it has the basic programs that a business man need.
Unnluckily, it was discontinious.

Summary: Great MP3 player/organizer...if the connection can be faster
Review: Nothing can beat the price to function ratio of this machine. I got a Visor Edge and bought this one for $220 (It's a long story). And my friend kept asking me why this color one is even cheaper than the B/W Edge? If you are looking for an MP3 player and/or a PDA for cheap this is what you should get. The MP3 playback is awsome. Music quality is great with earphone jack and it has no problem playing Music as good as 128bit/sec. You can easily get a 64mb CF card for less than $40, or 128mb on Amazon for $60, which bring the total down to less than $300 for an MP3 player + COLOR PDA.
There are a few downside of this PDA, though. The color is 256, which means that you won't be able to see great pictures that you took from your digital camera on it. And there is only serial cable connection for it. I will suggest you buy a USB card reader if you are actually using it as an MP3 player.
A few tricks you might want to know. You need to create a folder called "My Documents" in your card so that mediaplayer can find your music. And, to save energy, the screen toggle function in the option can be set so that you can turn screen off while listening to music.
In all I think this is worth at least 4 starts.

Review: The item itself was fine, but there was not a syncronization cable with it. I had to contact HP to have one sent. I would think that any pocket pc would automatically come with it's cable

Summary: Does it's job
Review: The M100 or M105 of PocketPCs. It does its job and some more. I use it to keep organized and play videos, though it doesnt do a good job at playing videos with a 256 color screen. The value was very good when I got it, but now, it is obsolte from the new PPC2002 operating system and there are IPAQs for 350, a better deal that this.I would recommend this to anyone that is on a budget and doesnt need multimedia a lot.

Summary: Price
Review: The price is not comparable with those of the department stores, circut city, best buy etc. I've found it for 149. Do you price match?

Review: This is a great model. Just add a CompactFlash card for more space and some great programs and you've got a great palm! (not that it isn't without all that stuff!)
