 Great little PDA, Recommended, 2005-08-19
When my friend told me that he was getting himself a new PDA (the RX3715 to be exact) He asked me if I wanted his hp 1945. I took this thing for a test run and was immediately hooked on how useful it is and I bought it from him. I've had this PDA for two or three weeks so far and it's handled everything I've thrown at it. A lot of people seem to have had problems with slight bumps or something, not so here. My iPaq has been jumbled in my pocket and much more in the past few weeks with no problems. I AM however careful with it, just like you SHOULD be with any electronics. Anyone who thinks this thing will survive a 4-6 foot fall without a case is an idiot.
The multimedia capabilities are rather good on this little handheld. It plays a LOT of games. The one that amazed me the most was playing iD's QUAKE on it, simply incredible. I've giving it only four starts because of a few reasons:
1. The infrared is poor. I'd love to use this as a universal remote but the infrared isn't powerful enough.
2. No WiFi. Not a big deal and you CAN buy an adapter but it will take up your only SD slot.
I think there may be something I'm missing but overall it's a solid PDA. The 266mhz Samsung processor is amazing too, performing better than most 300mhz and some 400mhz pocket processors. Bluetooth is available and I DO use it with my bluetooth dongle but it's still no WiFi, quite fast though.
OVERALL: I'd recommend this PDA. I've seen this thing from when my friend first purchased it and it's been through heaven and hell without problems. Excellent PDA and especially for the much lower price it's at now.

 IPAQ 1900 series has low LCD life, 2005-06-25
I bought the IPAQ 1940 a couple of years back and I had no problems with it and loved it for its display and form factor. But after 18 months, the screen developed a big internal crack for no reason. Cost to replace that at HP is $200. I read more blogs and almost everyone has something to say about the LCD screen's defective construction for the IPAQ series. I would not recommend this product to anyone just for its durability reasons.

 FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, DO NOT BUY IPAQS!, 2005-04-05
Product is overpriced for its chintzy characteristics. Looks really nice, but as they say,"looks can be deceiving". I bet 90 percent of the iPaqs out there that have been purchased from 2003 through the present date are either completely useless or are in some need of repair and 99 percent of those broken are most likely not the fault of the purchaser. Hp/Compaq has a HUGE problem with screens (as you can read from the other hundreds of negative postings on Amazon alone). Mine was very well taken care of and lasted about as long as everyone else's has (5-6 months). I even purchased the extended warranty plan, in which you have no way of proving that you did not drop the unit. SOL! My suggestion: file a complaint with your local attorney general. That'll scare HP! (oh wait, they dont care because they are overseas in another country).

Love the unit but super fragile., 2005-01-07
When I started using the HP1945 it was the ultimate timesaver for me, especially the Outlook Contacts. I loved the design and the way it worked. After one week of use, the screen cracked just from being in my shirt pocket, and the unit was useless. I was lucky and able to return it as defective to the store I bought it from, and get a refund. I will be searching for a similar, but sturdier PDA.

Good if no problems, terrible customer service, 2004-12-15
I bought my IPAQ 1945 in Feb of 2004 and after six months of great use the screen started flickering. I sent it in and was told that "You have spilled water on it and it will cost $190 to replace the screen."(a rude way to put it even if true). I knew it was not true but apparently had no recourse. Either pay up or do without. Now after going six month's without a PDA I'm getting ready to buy another and I just can't make myself get another HP.
