help with choosing my PPC

mazinya · #1 12-22-2007, 06:17 PM

Hi,

im new to the whole PPC world so this will be my first one.
here are the things i think i would like it to have.
i wanna add that i dont want it to be a cell phone also.

A good built in GPS that will catch the signals fast and work well with no problems.

good battery. its not a must, but i realy would prefer that

WIFI that will connext to hot spots fast with no problems and that the browsing will be as much comfortable as it can in a PPC, atleast let me check my GMAIL and send mails.

2 gigs of storage with option for more. 2 gigs is not important but ill prefer to have as much in addition to buying a card

good screen resolution with nice and clear colors and a cuz i would like to play some games too so also atleast 300 MHz CPU

I dont need it to play MP3 files, but i would realy like it to be able to support movie formats

also i want it to be a relaible device that wont give me problems

budget: im not from the USA but a friend of mine is visiting there so im gonna ask him to buy it for me cuz its much cheaper there, so budget is about $400. i can stretch it a bit only if it realy worth it

From reading forums etc. i was thinking about the HP/IPAQ 5915.

any recommandations, advices would be greatly appriciated

thanks

you're not asking for much, which is great. So then you have one heck of a list for you to choose from.

HTC Tilt (TyTN II or 8925 would be cool, but not sure if you can get it under $400)

Shogun, the HTC Tilt is a also a phone. i already mentioned i dont want it to be a phone. i have my own cell phone for that.
What are your thoughts about the HP 5915?

oh ok, then that complicated things a little bit more. sorry, I just sort of read through earlier.

I always liked iPaq and the 5915 does have a decent review (4/5, or 7/10). I've never used it, but I think it should be alright

Tell me though how it goes. I'd really like to know.

i didnt buy it yet. i would like if someone here that has any experience with the 5915 to comment and help me decide if the 5915 is a good chioce.

one more question: can you even compare the HP5915 GPS to the Garmin nüvi 350 gps?
