Hi,

Of course, the only thing it is missing is that it doesn't fit into an iPAQ
expansion pack - so it doesn't fit into the nice cradles with the cables
coming out the back of the cradle. That is a major drawback. I sell very
nice RAM cradles that can hold the e800, and cables to connect it to any
GPS, but the connector and cable stick out the bottom of the device and may
be bumped or damaged by your leg in a cramped glider cockpit.

My dream is that HP will follow suite with a new iPAQ that will have the 4"
screen and fit into a standard iPAQ expansion pack. Has anyone heard any
rumors...? I haven't.

Good Soaring,

Paul Remde

Hi,

After all the discussion about the Toshiba e800 on this forum I did some
investigating. It does look like a very interesting Pocket PC. Besides
the
large (4" vs. 3.5" or 3.8") high resolution (480x640 vs. 240x320)
screen, it
also has both CF and SD card slots and a very, very large optional
battery.
I've added it to my example systems web page and Pocket PC comparison
page.
I ordered one for testing.

Atta boy, Paul! I'm really interested in this one, so thanks for taking
the lead here. If it turns out to be a keeper, then maybe we can figure
out how to get the Bluetooth version in addition to the USA wi-fi unit.
