Better than IPOD.......2004-12-27

This little thing has it all. Synchronization with text is great(one drawback is you program it one line at a time with each song yourself). It is so light and the size of two matchboxes. You can also program the start up and end menus with a black and white picture of your choice. I had it for 2 days now and learned as much as I could. The manual is on the cd rom. I prefer paper because it is hard to navigate its 40 pages. It comes with a little grey bag and a black holder and strap.
The radio is nice. I tried the microphone and was surprised to find out it works without a mic attachment.You can use it for storage transportation too. It really has a good sound quality. I can truly say that the crazy teens and niave kids of today can shove it with thier ipods. I didn't waste my christmas wish on an overpriced, overhyped item. I know I still have cash left in my wallet.The fact it can hold about 100 songs is great for the price. I would definately buy this product!!

Neat Little Gadget.......2004-12-19

I bought this MP3 player after returning the 125 Joybee from BenQ I was satisfied with the Sound quality of the 125 so I opted for this model as I wanted a better menu functionality ...this one has better navigation with the menus. The Sound quality is great the headphones supplied with the set are short and I don't like the fact that the left ear headset cord is shorter than the right ear one. I am using the same USB cord that I have for my digital camera (This Cord is always plugged into my USB Port) it is good that the cord is universal in nature now with the same cord I can transfer pictures as well as music.

Transferring mp3 files is as easy as drag and drop you can create a directory structure in your Hard Disk and just drop it into the additional drive that shows up the moment you plug this into the USB port. The FM reception is good I tried recording a sound via FM and it was good. The e-reader is a neat feature though I did not find any use for it so far maybe I will use it to store my shopping list (Txt files can also be dragged and dropped).
The Joybee 150 can also be used a storage device.
Overall a good value for money ... search the net and you will find good deals for it ..

It's a clunker.......2002-08-27

I owned an ipaq 3150 for about two months before I decided that it was just too big to be practical. I needed a device that would fit comfortably in my pocket... I guess I figured that I could get by with 16 mb and not need to use the expansion sleeve. But the memory dissappeared rapidly and I discovered how bulky the thing is with the sleeve on. Bulky and heavy. I really enjoyed my use of this PDA, however; the large screen is nice for Ebooks and photos, if you can stand the monochrome display. If you can get by without the sleeve, the PC itself is quite sleek and attractive. I bought it in the first place because it seems less expensive than it's color relatives, but recently prices have plummetted and a thinner machine with a color display is no longer unaffordable.

Excellent buy....CHEAPEST option!.......2002-05-03

I got the iPAC a few weeks ago. It is my first Pocket Pc, and I am so so happy with it!!
It is very simple to use, it covers my needs and it even has extra features I didn't expect.
I use it to keep my contacts and appointments handy at all time, my schedule, as a calendar, to write notes, play games, read books, listen to music, wake up in the morning, to tape reminders and messages, and as a place to keep other important info.
The box contained two other software programs, Audible and eWallet (great to keep track of all your credit cards, internet site memberships and so on)
I believe it has become my "right hand assistant".

I have to say, I love the "taping" option and it is very handy when Im driving...

The only things I believe this product lacks are the colour screen and a printed reference guide within the box.

All in all, its a GREAT buy for the money.

Less then 1/2 the $ for 90% of the features.......2002-02-01

Bought mine initially because it was my first PDA and I didn't want to spend $5-600 on the color one. I live by it now and don't want the color models. The monochrome screen draws far less power. I can go a week between chargings whereas my friends with the color model have to re-charge everyday. If you have poor eyesight the color models may be better for you because the screen is a little tough to see in low light (despite backlight). Otherwise, it's a deal and a half.

Compaq IPAQ 3150.......2002-01-30

This is a great product. However, I dropped mine in October, 2001. Compaq has sent it back TWICE without doing anything to it, AND the repair was prepaid. Bottom line is Compaq and Customer Service are mutually exclusive terms. I don't care how highly a Compaq product is rated. I will never buy anything that says Compaq again.

A step up from my Palm.......2002-01-01

I got this unit as a present for Christmas 2001. Nice unit, fast, when compared to my previous handheld. They have been discontinued by Compaq, so there are not a whole lot of places selling them. But if you can pick one up for under [price], it's worth the price.

Yes, it does not have the color screen of it's more expensive brothers. But it also doesn't have the shorter battery life. It also uses all the same accessories of it's big brothers.

I got mine to replace my Palm IIIe. I added a Compact Flash adapter and the upgrade to PocketPc 2002. I use it to read my Email, keep my schedule, and listen to music as an MP3 player on planes when I travel.

I was already using MS Outlook XP as my PIM manager on my laptop and desktop, so it took all my settings and schedules and imported them without a hitch. And not needing any outside sync program was a cost savings too.

Overall, not a bad bargain for all those features.
