HP IPAQ RX 5935 Handheld Computers help needed

Options
Hi

I am thinking of getting one of these but want to know what you lot think about it before i do

best price i can find is £245 in dixons (with a £10 coupon)

I am getting it because of the gps and tom tom as well as the other features

If you have any thoughts on this or can suggest an alternative please let me know

also if you see this cheaper even better

thanks

john

    I use a Dell Axim X51v for a PocketPC PDA, and team it with a TomTom Bluetooth GPS for sat nav, I found this to work better than an older iPaq all-in-one which needed to connect to the internet every few days to update the satellites locations, but the 5935 may be better, worth reading around.

    It's my second Dell Axim, and the X51v is excellent, it has all sorts built-in, but not a GPS receiver as standard.

    If I had the choice today, I'd probably opt for a standalone TomTom system dedicated to the task, as I find I'm using the PDA less and less.
