Never buy HP Ipaq. Display is very poor. My son has one and not happy. Dopod / HTC are far good. I own Dopod S301. Very good !!! Further HP doesnot provide service nor they have authorised service center. Spares are not available in the market. After warranty you will have to throw it out. HP will replace the unit during warranty, but no chance of getting it repaired.

Never buy HP Ipaq

Never ever buy Hp Ipaq. Hp doesnot provide proper service. They will replace the unit. After warranty or in warranty void condition they will replace it and charge you Rs.11,900 (with 3 month warranty) where as it is available in market at Rs.8,900 (with 1 year warranty). They donot perform repairs at board or chip level. The resolution is bad 172x220. The build quality is very poor. Made in China !!!
