Summary
Overall we are quite happy with this product. It is used on a daily basis for a myriad of applications. It has full multimedia capability as well as the ability to throw down on the command line, AND it will sync with our existing PIM desktop application.
The keyboard and buttons work great; they can be used to navigate through the OS or through applications. But not everything can be done using the keyboard - at odd times you will be required to hold the stylus. Invariably the stylus ends up being held behind the ear or nervously being chewed on while typing.
Finally, the price: we got the base unit for $399. Add in the Digital Camera CF Card (US$169.99), the Wireless LAN CF Card (US$119), the Extra Battery (US$49.99), and charger (US$49.99). That puts the total at US$747.97. This is fine if your company pays for it, but probably not for the starving computer professional.
