Compaq C-Series 2010c Handheld PC

Summary: Nice display, but the case is poorly engineered
Review: The display is excellent - it's a good size and the backlighting makes it legible in most conditions (although having the backlight on really chews up the battery power). However, there appears to be a design flaw in the case. I purchased my 2010c in September 1998, and within 2 months, the plastic hinge on the left-hand side fractured, making the unit unusable. I returned the unit to the Compaq service facility, who replaced it free of charge. In May this year, the hinge on the second unit fractured in exactly the same place. I'm going to ask Compaq to replace it again, but the warranty will expire in September, so if the third one breaks, I'm out of luck. This is a high-end product with a high-end price tag: this kind of failure just shouldn't happen.

Summary: Good for networks administrators
Review: With this HandHeld from compaq, you can surf the Web, even better if you have the CE professinal ROM. You can remotely control your office/home computer from anywhere using carbonCopyCE, also you can access UNIX or LINUX servers using Telnet, etc., etc.. In few words, it's a valuable portable unit that make your job easier.
