One of the biggest complaints I hear about the H3600 and H3700 series iPAQs is that their battery life sticks. I never had problems with the battery life of my iPAQ, but I was rarely away from the charger for more than 12 hours, and in that time if I had my iPAQ on for 5 hours it would have been a lot. But if you need to have stellar battery life, then the iPAQ probably isn't the right machine for you.
That is until now. The good folks at PDAorDie have announced a replacement battery product for these iPAQs called the Power Gear Force and Power Gear Force-Pro that have 2100mAh of juice, or 1750mAh power with buzzer alarm and vibration features, respectively.
