HP iPaq hx2790

The HP iPaq hx2790 boasts Windows Mobile 5, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, and a fingerprint reader for added security. The PDA also performed well in CNET Labs' tests

The chunky and heavy HP iPaq hx2790 has a low-resolution screen compared with its competitors, and it's expensive

The HP iPaq hx2790 is a PDA for those who are looking for a traditional, businesscentric approach to ultraportable computing and don't mind paying for it.

As PDAs increasingly morph into mobile phones and vice versa, the HP iPaq hx2790 stands out by ignoring this technological cross-pollination. The HP iPaq hx2790 picks up where the hx2750 left off and doesn't add any new design features. Speaking...

HP iPaq hx2750

Fast processor ; biometric fingerprint reader ; built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth ; dual expansion slots ; nice display and included screen cover ; user-replaceable battery

Hefty ; so-so battery life

Offering an impressive resume of good performance and security and wireless features, the HP iPaq hx2750 gets the job done.

If there's one word to describe the HP iPaq hx2750, it would be sturdy. The HP iPaq hx2750 is well appointed in the features department. As with HP's latest crop of Pocket PCs, the hx2750 comes with the iPaq wireless utility so that you can access...

HP iPAQ hx2790

By Lisa Gade

The flip cover is here to stay on the hx2000 series, and that's a good thing since it protects the most vulnerable part of the PDA: the screen.The hx2000 series use a hard plastic translucent flip cover that's mounted up top and thankfully stays up ...

Fast, spacious flash memory, maximally expandable with Bluetooth, WiFi, SD and CF slots. Durable design, rubber grips help keep the unit safely in hand. Broadcom Bluetooth software is a great improvement over the basic Microsoft BT software. Flip ...

Not much of a software bundle by HP standards

It's hard to find fault with this unit, and believe me, we have no trouble finding things to complain about. The device is very fast, has great graphics performance for video playback and gaming, Bluetooth, WiFi, good VNP support, SD and CF slots, ...

HP iPaq hx2790

By Dave Johnson

Fast processor Wi-Fi and Bluetooth • Biometric security

Mediocre battery life Ugly, bulky design

Aimed directly at business users, the iPAQ hx2790 has all the traditional trappings of a productivity-savvy PDA. Multiple levels of security allow you to train the PDA to respond to a password, fingerprint, or both, and it's amazingly accurate;...

PCWorld.com - HP IPaq Hx2755

HP's IPaq Hx2755 packs plenty of processing power and RAM, and its simple design is mostly easy to use. The unit's most notable shortcoming, ...

Syncing to a PC using the included USB cradle was a breeze, and the built-in Bluetooth and 802.11b Wi-Fi were easy to set up and to access from the IPaq Wireless screen. Software on the Hx2755 is pretty standard, including ActiveSync, MSN...

iPAQ HX2755 PDA

This wireless PDA disappoints with an awkward design and hard-to-train biometrics.

This PDA is fast, powerful, and equipped with both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, but the biometric fingerprint reader works inconsistently

Ipaq HX2755 PDA

By Laura Blackwell

HP's IPaq Hx2755 packs plenty of processing power and RAM, and its simple design is mostly easy to use. The unit's most notable shortcoming, though, is also its most distinctive feature: a biometric fingerprint reader.

However, you may want to think twice about showing off your vacation photos on this device. JPEG photos looked only average on the Hx2755's screen; although color was pleasing, details didn't look terribly crisp, and a light grid made every image look ...

Despite the scanner's solid (though mostly PDA-based) documentation and ample training, I had a devil of a time persuading the Hx2755 to consistently recognize my right index finger. The Hx2755 also includes HP's Image Zone software for viewing...

HP iPaq hx2700 PocketPC series

By Steve Taylor

As a Pocket PC, the iPaq is the perfect candidate for fingerprint-based login.

Can use fingerprint and PIN password Easy to scan• File encryption feature

No Web integration Training takes a bit too long• Errors during testing

Fingerprint scanning is part of HP ProtectTools, which was developed by Credant Technologies. Re-authentication is required if the device is locked or logged off, or if you try to access certain configuration screens within HP ProtectTools. At one...
