Tom's Hardware Guide Reviews the HP iPaq hx4700

"PDA makers are not being treated kindly of late. For one thing, sales figures have declined over the last couple of quarters. For another, the nosedive in prices for notebooks has led to some suppliers offloading their mobile PCs for less than $500. Pocket PCs are also faced with increased competition from smart phonesSimultaneous with this downward pressure on prices is an increase in demands from users. They want more processing power, more memory and storage, higher display resolutions and better standard equipment - all with as little a price rise as possible compared to the preceding generation of Windows pocket PCs. <...> Given all of the above, it is a little strange that an industry giant like Hewlett Packard would have in its portfolio a business PDA selling for US$650. We set out to discover whether HP's iPAQ hx 4700 is really worth its salt."
If you're still in the market for a VGA WM device and the HP iPaq hx4700 is one of the devices being considered, then you'll want to hop on over to Tom's Hardware Guide and check out his impressions. For what it's worth, the hx4700 is the device that I currently use and I absolutely love it! If you like your VGA screens large and in-charge (like me) and aren't afraid to shell out some extra cash for it, then this PDA, in my opinion, is a tough choice to beat!
