message: * Would this page benefit from pictures of the various models? I have a 4300 series that I can submit a picture of - does wikipedia need pictures of PDA's from each model? --Oreckel 23:08, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Pictures? 

message: The following sentence is debatable: 
:The device is the main competition to the Palm Pilot, but provides more multimedia capabilities and the familiar Microsoft Windows interface. 
No evidence is cited re purported multimedia advantage, and no mention that interface is not really that familiar re Windows, and many see it as a liability, esp wrt iPaq reputation for crashing, memory hogging, and being slow.
* Ok - then rewrite it. Example:
:The device is the main competition to the Palm Pilot, but provides more multimedia capabilities and the familiar Microsoft Windows interface. However, iPaqs also hold a reputation for memory hogging and crashing. --Oreckel 04:11, 18 July 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: but if you wish to note supposed "crashing, memory hogging, and being slow", then you will likewise need some evidence. Got data?Ken (talk) 20:02, 27 March 2013 (UTC)

message: There seems to be conflicting reports on whether the iPAQ 210 series supports USB on the Go, or can operate as a USB host. A customer service rep apparently said the 210 could act as a USB host and connect to external hard drives, USB drives, etc. But it's likely that the service rep had no idea what she was talking about, being a service rep and all...  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.51.247.188 (talk) 02:23, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Linux identifies device as "Hewlett-Packard Jornada 548 / iPaq HW6515 Pocket PC"
I guess my device has triple identities.

thread_title:  Strange HP iPaq 614c 

message: The whole section on the rw6800 reads like text that's been lifted from a company brochure. An encyclopedia is not the place for sentences with "we" and "you". This undermines the text because it implies that this section cannot be WP:NPOV. --Pfold (talk) 23:17, 7 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Inappropriate style

message: This section is incredibly unencyclopedic. According to Wikipedia policy, Wikipedia is not a how-to guide or instruction manual, and Wikipedia should not serve as a catalogue for a company's products. Any encyclopedic content should be salvaged from this section; however, simply listing each model's specification is a waste of space (a reader can just look up the model they're interested in on the official iPAQ website or elsewhere, I'm sure) and much of the section was written in the style of an advertisement. Any models described should have their notability asserted with reliable sources which are not affiliated with the iPAQ manufacturers. The iPod article is by no means great but gives an idea of how useful information about a piece of branded hardware can be presented. Hopefully this helps, Una LagunaTalk 13:52, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Removed "Model variation" section 

message: The Ipaq 1940 doesn't have bluetooth.  At least, mine doesn't as far as I can tell.  I suspect the confusion might be that the 1945 does have bluetooth.  It does however, have infrared.  It would probably be good in the tables to add a column for Infrared.
http://pocketpccentral.net/ipaq1945.htm
I'd like to leave the editing to someone else, partly because I'm still learning my way around Wiki and don't want to mess up the page completely; also because I'm not that familiar with the Ipaqs and could be wrong in my beliefs.

message: Hi, anyone manage to get a snapshot of the 2005 T-Mobile GPRS model with the screen (pointing device and display) off?
It was running Microsoft CE, when taken in the City of London June 6th 2008.
The other one, with a 2gig SD card in it (with screen intact) was taken into evidence (BNN01) on June 17th 2008 at Kennington.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 126.161.136.255 (talk) 21:19, 18 June 2018 (UTC)
