(Lukily there is a fix). You can purcahse a PCMCIA card to give access to the Internet. Fixes: As I said, the look is rather distasteful. It also has pocket versions of Microsoft Office.
Youll want the 1.59 version, than download any skin for it. The audio on the device is surprisingly good, and you can play mp3s, wavs, and wmas. (Maybe more, but I have not checked) It is light, being about the weight of your remote control and fits in the palm of your hand.Cons: The look of the Jornada is very old, and XP and Vista users will find it hard to adjust. General Overview: The Jornada is a great tool for those who want to type on the go. Internet is useful, but you need t pay extra. packaage that included paint, spell checker, and more) Finally the battery life lasts about 5 hours if you want to just plain even look at te screen without it being dark.
The desktop can be changed easily, but that still makes Icons and the Taskbar look ancient. Look for a pogram called Gigabar that donwloads directly to your Jornada.
There cheap now, and if you travel a lot and like to type, get this. The look of the Jornada is terrible, but can be fixed.Pros: This device can be syncronized with your computer so if you need to tranfer files to and fro you can.
Read the gigbar readme file which will give you directions to how to install the new skin. Also the rpograms you can upload on this are minimal, so dont expect to be running much else than what is put on it.
(Though there is a PLUS. The site is here: http://www.hpcfactor.com/downloads/In essence, you'll mainly use this device for typing and using PDA type things.
Thank you and good luck.
