It's 2021. I knew that I wouldn't be able to access the "connection" features of this machine such as messaging and web browsing. But it's still useful as a notepad or an alarm clock. One of the most interesting features is the handwriting recognition program – you write on the screen with ordinary handwriting, and it converts to text. It's about 85% accurate.

I bought this because after several years of use my iPAQ 2495b failed. Subsequent to buying this item I repaired the 2495b myself (to my amazement) with a cheap new screen and socket which I ordered from China. Anyway, I have this to compare to the iPAQ 211 to as well as with an older 2955 which my wife uses. The main thing that I like about the iPAQ 211 is its large, bright screen. Also, I've noticed improvements running Windows Mobile 6.0 compared to Mobile 5; however, as far as I can tell from the Microsoft web site, the software cannot be upgraded to Mobile 6.5. Wi-Fi works good as well as the other included programs (Microsoft Office, Windows Media etc.). It has the same great storage capacity as my other iPAQ - CF and SD slots plus there is a mini USB socket which can be used for charging. There are few negatives (for me) with this model. The screen is not as responsive as what I'm used to. It's accurate, but it requires taping harder or holding longer compared to my other iPAQs. The 211 has a bulkier, industrial strength feel to it. I guess there's a price to pay for that gorgeous screen. Also, although I've never run it completely down, the battery life seems shorter than with the other iPAQs. I've had trouble syncing consistently with Vista 64 bit but no problems with Windows XP. The audio is not good unless earphones or buds are used. Before retirement from the medical field I needed the 2495b in my pocket all the time. I don't think I'd want to lug around the 211. However, it's fine for checking email in a coffee shop, using it on an airplane flight, playing games, viewing photos and video, using Office and watching YouTube. Bottom line is that if I hadn't fixed my iPAQ 2495b I would have been satisfied with the 211. Now I wish that I had saved my money for an iTouch or iPhone.Read full review
the hp ipaq 211 is very handy, the wifi has a good distance, and the touch screen is nice but sometimes have to push a little hard. the internet is decently fast but will lag and sometimes not load if multiple programs are running or in background. the quality is not the best but is not bad. the volume is very difficult to hear without head phones ( unless there's a volume button i have yet to discover). The screen is easily seen out doors, and doesn't hold a glare. the applications are moderately easy to find but sometimes don't work. I use this for school and download power points and other files I need or might need on hand it is failry easy to use and would recommend to others.
My wife was using a Palm Tungsten E2 for several years, but it was developing problems. She needed a replacement. I needed internet access when traveling without lugging a laptop. Specifically, I needed either an iPhone or a Windows-based system to run a certain application. The iPhone required a $30/month G3 add-on expense for the life of the phone. My internet access needs could easily be accommodated by going to a hot spot, such as a Starbucks. I had no need for access from the car, and my access needs are rare. The Ipaq gave us both everything we needed, including the ability to load all of the data from the Palm by backing it up to Outlook, then restoring to the Ipaq. The screen is large and bright. Internet access is simple. the onscreen keypad is adequately large. The availability of apps, including free apps, is amazing. In addition, the unit is quite fast, and can edit and read Microsoft Office files. Built-in memory is adequate for many needs, and storage can be expanded using Secure Digital cards up to 4GB. The unit also has a slot for a Compact Flash card or device, such as a GPS receiver or on-card programs. In general, the PDA market is dying, replaced by Smart Phones. Unfortunately, the wireless phone companies gouge the consumer by requiring their network access, even if the phone has wifi built in. The Ipaq is the perfect solution for the occasional "away" internet user who wants nearly full PC power in his pocket.Read full review
