Pda

I've done some researches about some PDA's and I have found that the iPAQ's are the ones the fit my needs.

I was looking at HP iPAQ 1945 Pocket PC and the HP iPAQ h2215 Pocket PC. I read some good reviews about these two and some of you reommanded these two PDA's for some gotapexers.

I have a pretty hard time deciding on which one to get...so does anyone have any suggestions?

DEFINITELY get the 2215 over the 1945. You'll enjoy:

-a faster processor (300-400MHz and 64MB RAM is what you need for performance without noticible lag)

-compact flash AND secure digital slots, while the 1945 only has SD. This means that for MP3 use, you can over double your capacity. Also, if in the future you want to slap in a Wifi compact flash card, or a GPS setup you will be able to do this. Secure Digital peripherals are a LOT more money than CF ones.

As a counter point, If you don't really care about compact flash, the 1945 is a very nice pda, tiny size, has enough performance at 266mhz, and has better battery life than the 2215. Also, it's easier to see in low light conditions.

But both are really cool PDA's.
