Rating: Summary: stinks, dont think about buying it Review: First of all, you have to pay 99.99$ for it. Then after you buy it you have to spend another 50.00$ on buying things that work with it. it does nothing accept sits there,......I bought it, belive me
Rating: Summary: Wouldn't be without it! Review: For those that use their Ipaq alot, I highly recommend this expansion sleeve. The price may seem a little high, but it has well been worth it to have the extra battery time. I have not had any problems with it at all. I originally was looking for just a CF sleeve when I purchased this. I have had it for about a month now and with some of the software and add ons that I have I am glad to have the extra battery time. The external battery charges extremely fast. The weight was the only thing that I had to get used to, but after a while you won't notice it much.
Rating: Summary: Nice enhancement for the iPAQ Review: I think that Compaq did a reasonable job of redesigning this expansion pack compared to the original. Especially since this one comes with an extra battery and the original was just a big block of plastic. I often use a Targus Stowaway keyboard, so having the extra power is extremely useful. Another nice feature is the screen protector. It is just like the one that comes standard with the 3800 series. This is great for protecting your investment. The pack only adds about a ¼ of an inch to the thickness of the unit, although psychologically it feels a lot thicker with the screen protector. The only negative comment I can offer is the fact that the pack with the battery adds a lot of weight to the unit. The pack and battery together are about the same weight as the iPAQ itself. Therefore the unit in the sleeve is double the original weight. It takes a little time to adjust to this fact, but having the extra memory and battery is well worth it. Besides, if you don't need the extra storage or power during a meeting or trip you can slide the pack off and travel light for a while.

Rating: Summary: Improved Battery! Review: I've been using my CF+ for 5 days & everything work fine. I like the improvement on battery & the cover. I'm using a 3630 iPAQ. I read alot of horror stories about the CF+ but I took the dive & bought it because I badly needed the extra battery time. I'm really glad I did.
Rating: Summary: A Must Have! Review: My only complaint about my iPaq 3765 was it's short battery life (compares with my previous Palm devices). The Compact Flash Card Expansion Pack Plus is the perfect solution. It comes with a battery to boost the time my iPaq can be used, and by adding an inexpensive Compact Flash card, you get more memory too! My iPaq now has the same amount of RAM as my desktop! It fits great and feels solid. I totally recommend this item!
Rating: Summary: If you can find it, BUY IT Review: The CF Exp. Pack Plus is pretty much impossible to find in stores, and quite hard to find it available online at the MSRP (Most sellers know this item is in high demand so they sell it MORE than 99.99, the MSRP). I suggest if you find it at a price bellow a hundred dollars, just buy it! Why buy it? This product is probably the BEST CF expansion pack out there no questions asked. First of all, I owned a regular Compaq CF expansion pack before.. nothing spectacular. This CF expansion pack however, does a lot more. The main thing of course is the battery. The battery doubles the regular life of the ipaq, which is important since the ipaq battery doesnt really last long. You can also take out the battery and use another battery or an extended battery if you wish to have more power. Secondly, one of my gripes with the old regular CF expansion pack was that it didnt protect the screen of my iPaq, like the Compaq Cover Pack that I also owned. And likewise, the Cover Pack I had didn't have a CF expansion slot. Well, the CF Exp. Pack Plus nails both problems. Not only does it include a CF expansion slot, it is also a Cover Pack. It looks and protects EXACTLY the same as the Cover Pack. There is a small grey plastic door that covers the screen. Basically, the CF Expansion pack plus is just a Cover Pack with a CF expansion slot and a very slim battery pack that doubles the battery life. All this...everything you wanted and needed.. in one sleeve. It might be "a little heavier" but it doesn't bother me a bit. I don't like the ipaq feel so light that it feels like im holding a naked ipaq, and I dont like the ipaq feeling so heavy that it feels like im holding a dumbbell... this one is just perfect, with everything on, it feels like your holding a gameboy. Perfect if you ask me. Oh and by the way, there is also an ejection mechanism to eject out ure CF memory card.. no more pulling out the CF card from the slot, just push the lil trigger and pop comes out the card. Any problems with it so far? Nope, works perfect. My only problem is that Compaq didnt release this sooner.
