Summary: Good PDA for power user
Review: This is a great PDA if you know your tech stuff and don't mind soft resetting the unit often.1. WiFi works great even with WAP encryption tunred on. However, setting up wireless ActiveSync was painful even for someone who is familiar with networking. The configuration just isn't intuitive at all and is scattered in many different places. 2. The extra large screen is a big plus. 3.8 inch vs 3.5. 3. Media player works fine. I am able to stream live TV program to this unit without skipping frames. This is a pleasant surprise. 4. I was able to get ActiveSync to work with Outlook after several tries. I havn't tried synching with Exchange Server. Again, if you are none technical, you will most likely run into problems. 5. The built-in speaker sucks. Most other PDAs have better speakers. 6. Soft Reset will be your daily activity. I don't believe Toshiba is at fault. It is a built-in Microsoft "FEATURE". 7. There is no COM port built-in. If you want to use serial GPS, you will need to get the software driver that turns USB into simulated COM port. Even then, it is painful to use and requires lots of resets. 8. 32MB build-in extra FLASH storage means you probably don't need memory card soon. 9. No Bluetooth 10. The manual is pretty much useless except for telling you how to soft reset the unit. 11. Be careful with hard reset. You DO lose everything that's not in the flash memory.

Summary: Love it !!!
Review: I was a Palm guy. After going over 6 Palms devices (3Com, Palm, Sony, Handspring...), I decided to try PCC. This is now my second PocketPC2003 in less than a month. I first purchased the new HP iPAQ 1935 w/ PPC2003. The iPAQ 1935 is very small and so easy to carry. But with a lack of wireless (SDIO/802.11 not available everywhere) on the iPAQ, I decided to try the Toshiba 755. Just got the Toshiba e755 yesterday. First impression, the unit is BIG and little heavy compared to my other iPAQ. I can now feel it on my pocket.
On first power on, the screen went white (just lighted). Tried several options/buttons and still nothing. I thought the unit was dead. I then removed the battery and put it back on. The unit then started working.
The first test was the wireless. It took me about an hour to configure the 802.11 with my Linksys AP. The reason it took so long was the WEP config. Without WEP, the unit detected my AP and I was connected to the network in couple minutes. You have to get use to browse the web via a handheld, the screen is very small. I liked using MS messenger, this is great.
Tried some videos using MediaPlayer9 via wireless and was impressed of the result. This unit is faster and smoother when playing video than my iPAQ. I will be testing VPN and Terminal Services, this will be a good test for work. Battery usage seems to be good but carry an extra battery if you plan using the wireless. I got about 2h of wireless usage (regular use). The charging time is not too bad either, it took less than 2h to recharge from a dead battery. Overall, I will give a 5 stars. THis is a great unit, if you're a power users, get this one. At $320, it offers many features than other PPCs for the same price.

Summary: exelent pda
Review: I just picked one of these up for 300 bucks, and let me tell you that this is the best pda I have ever used. I had a ipaq 3760 which wore out, and I was fortunate enough to find one of these for a mere 300 bucks, compaired to the ipaq 1945 which is the best other product in this price range, the e755 wins hands down. It has both SD and CF slots, integrated wireless, and enough features to keep you on your heels for weeks. and now the biggest thing... the battery life is great! I can use this all day without recharging it or changing the battery. exelent buy on a exelent unit.

Summary: Great PDA!!!
Review: Upgraded from a Jornada 548, and very glad I did. Pros: Processor is very fast; moving between programs and views is a breeze; screen redraws almost instantaneous; screen is bright and text clear; 3.8" screen vs. the usual 3.5" is nice; WiFi is a nice feature; has tons of memory--96MB RAM, CF and SD. Also nice to have a switch to turn the battery off completely. Cons: comparatively minor for what you get w/ the 755, particularly at the Amazon price. The record button is located on the upper left side of the unit about where I put my hand to remove it from the docking station, inadvertently engaging the record function, so I disabled it. Not quite as easy to insert and remove from docking station as some units, such as the HP Jornada, but again minor stuff; WiFi switch a bit difficult to switch on/off. Manual doesn't have an index. Great out-of-the-box experience. Purposely did not read the directions; took only a couple of minutes to set up the PDA (select proper time zone, align screen) and then I flipped the WiFi switch and 20 seconds later I was connected to my wireless home network. Wireless syncing is a bit more difficult to negotiate though--still working on that. And while some find the Toshiba design uninspiring, it has nice clean lines I would term as simple sophistication. While some improvements come with the new MS OS, you'll still want to download the now standard plug-ins for the Today screen. Pleasant surprise: handwriting recognition appears improved from the 2002 version. Have tested it numerous times and it has worked near flwlessly--I might actually use this feature now. All in all, a great unit--if I had it to do again, I'd make this purchase again.

Summary: I returned it after 24 hours
Review: This is the first Pocket PC I've owned, so I'm not sure what to expect in terms of workmanship and quality. Pros: - making the Wi-Fi connection could not have been easier. This was the main reason I bought the device, and I was able to connect to my home 802.11b network almost automatically - PPC 2003 is so easy to use; I like the way the soft keyboard opens automatically when a form field receives focus in IE. Nice! - The display is very bright and clear. Beats the heck out of my Handspring Treo! Cons: - The workmanship is inferior. For example, the AC adapter cord simply falls out of the back of my unit's base with the slightest jiggle. - The recording button drove me nuts. I could not remove the unit from its base without accidentally pressing the recording button. - The Wi-Fi connection drops without warning, even very close to the base station. - Toshiba support is indifferent to customer queries. I called to see if I could buy an extended warranty for the unit and was first told they didn't offer it. Then when I told the customer service representative that I was looking at a warranty on the Toshiba site, she said they did sell them after all. She asked me to hang on a minute and then hung up on me. I am not slamming the unit (three stars out of five). I think if you are willing to take a risk on workmanship, you get a very good list of features for the price. In fact, you have to compare the e755 to a high-end iPAQ to get a similar list of features. But for my first and only Pocket PC I want something that feels like its better made.

Summary: Great product but..
Review: This would be a really great product if it didnt continually need to be re-set. Its annoying because it resets for seemingly no reason at all, and I lose all my information, and then have to re-synch with Outlook, which defeats the whole point of having the unit. Im trying to find an answer from Tohiba, or to find out if I have the biggest lemon in the world

Summary: Excellent Product!
Review: This pocket pc by toshiba is one of the best products you can buy. It is extremely user-friendly to someone with basic computer knowledge, and is very easy to set up appointments, calendar dates, etc. If you follow the directions provided in the box, you will NOT have ANY problems with the device.
Do NOT listen to any of the previous reviews telling you about problems with the e755 pocket pc. Not only have I never had to reset this pda, but I've not once experienced any problems with the software or operating system. I've also not once experienced any problems with wifi connecting to my home network. Everything synced perfectly with my laptop, no questions asked. The only problem I found was the battery life was rather short (4 hours), so I'd recommend the high capacity battery which is 3 times the length. Problem solved.
In conclusion, I highly recommend this product to someone who wants one of the most powerful pocket pc's to date, and wireless highspeed internet access.

Summary: Very powerful and easy to use. No problems to date
Review: I have owned this unit for over a week and have put it through some extensive testing. So far there have been no issues. I have never had to software or hardware reset the unit. One review said that when they powered off, the alignment screen came up. This is caused when you push the notepad button while pressing the power button. I agree with another review that stated the battery is limited. Get the extended battey.

Summary: Good Device, but has flaws...
Review: I bought that device because of all the features and it seems to be very useful. Wireless and the Transcriber works perfect and I'm very impressed with the device. However now it starts to act up a little, first I tought I did something to it but the problems keep coming back:
When I try to shut it down with the Power Button I always get the screen alignment Screen and cannot turn the device off at all.
Some applications won't start anymore because everytime I select them the red dots keep coming up and present the copy/paste menu. This is very annoying because you have to reset the device over and over again and I try to find a fix [OS update or Flash Update], but when there is no solution Toshiba will get it back. And as I can see here there are more people which are having the same problem I have. So it is a flaw in the thing itself. So wait till this problem is solved before buying one...
