HP iPaq Pocket PC hx4700

Zippy 624MHz processor ; 4-inch VGA screen ; runs Windows Mobile 2003 SE ; integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth ; user-replaceable battery

Bulky ; touchpad is unintuitive and isn't always responsive ; subpar video performance

The hx4700 offers powerful features and solid performance for on-the-go professionals--just be prepared to pay a hefty price.

The HP iPAQ hx4700 Takes the Luxury Business PDA to the Next Level

By Harald Thon

HP's iPAQ hx4700 is a tiny PC with top-of-the-line features: a 4" VGA display, integrated touchpad and WLAN/PAN functions. Can HP's luxury PDA make a place for itself against the competition, despite its high price?

HP's iPAQ hx4700 is certainly not a bargain. Customers are asked to cough up a whole US$650 for the unit, which may be a little too much for the average Joe

HP iPaq hx4700

The iPaq hx4700 is big, costly, and packed with innovation.

Review: HP iPAQ hx4700

By Jørgen Sundgot

Sliding in at the very top of the Pocket PC high-end range, HP's new iPAQ hx4700 boasts a glorious 4" screen and WM2K3 Second Edition: Jørgen Sundgot gets up close and personal.

Massive screen ; immensely powerful ; superb connectivity

Oversized ; a tad short on RAM ; untapped display potential for multimedia

iPAQ hx4705 PDA

This Pocket PC sports a touchpad, but using it isn't exactly intuitive.
