HP iPAQ hx4705 Reviewed

Posted by Hemos on from the cool-machines dept.

Tong writes "PDA Buyer's Guide has published an in-depth review of the HP iPAQ hx4605. 'This has been the month of the iPAQ with so many new models released! The hx4705 is one of the most anticipated because it features a fantastic VGA display and a super-fast 624MHz processor. Heap on plenty of memory, Bluetooth, WiFi, both CF and SD slots and a touch pad navigator and you've got the 4705. It's one of only two Pocket PCs with a VGA display sold in the US.' Read the full review on the buyer's guide."

    wouldn't it be sweet to have one of these top-end iPaq's running some sort of stripped down OSX?

    No. It wouldn't be sweet at all. Macintrash is for fags. Apple makes overpriced proprietary hardware that only a fanboy could love and OSX is for people who failed at being Linux geeks and now need an OS that is easier to use than linux and yet still isn't microsoft. Er, sorry. I meant Micro$oft.

    I've got a real job and can't take the time to fuck around with one of these time-wasting pieces of shit.

    Hey: You're a fucking idiot, and I mean that with all my heart.

    I have PDA's, and I work with a number of various PDA's at my job (Palm and PocketPC). This iPAQ, by FAR, is arguably the best damn PDA on the market at this point in time. Nothing about it is 'craptastic' except your lousy, uninformed opinion.

    Now shut up and sit down, boy.
