Pocket PC for about $250?

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.pocketpc (More info?)

I chose my Ipaq 2215 mainly because it has both the CF and SD slots, as well
as built-in bluetooth. Been pretty happy with it so far. Paid around $260 on
Ebay last Xmas, so probably cheaper now. Whatever you get, there will ALWAYS
be something better/smaller/cheaper next week, so just pick one that does
what you need and live with it for a while!!

Your choices are simpler than ever actually as Sony and a
few others have stopped production, in part due to the
expected increasingly popular smart phones. YOur choices
if you still like MS PC are either Dell (Website) or HP.
3rd choice would be Palm, if you like their operating
system. EZ as that. Don't overbuy, not worth it.

Enjoy the new toy.
