any of you ipaq users own the dual pc card sleeve? i could see where it would come in handy, a 2 gig hd and a wireless card, but it looks really bulky. input on this thing?

Ever tried carrying two iPaqs stacked atop one another?
That's what I thought. Suddenly your "Pocket" PC isn't.

And what are you gonna do with 2GB of storage space anyways? :p

lmao ... hope you've got one of the newer iPaqs with the 16-bit colour. I tried putting some TV eps on a 3635 once and it looked like crap due to 12-bit.

And you might want to invest in a backup battery if you've got 2GBs of pr0n to watch. :p

i would really like to her some testamony (sp) from someone that actually has a dual pc card sleeve and uses both slots... right now, just because of price i'm leaning towards the single slot sleeve.

Nope, but the only thing I use with it is an Orinoco Gold 802.11B card, for connecting at client offices, looking for sources of interference, completing pre-install site surveys. Oh, and surfing the Web from my La-Z-Boy at home :p

The screen protector is like a flip over cover, similar to the style packs for the 3800 series. IMHO, the best feature of the plus series is the removable battery (similar to cell phone battery).

you chucked yours...as in you still have it and don't use it anymore? (curious... i wanna buy it question :D )

seems like that little flip over screen protector would get in the way.

tallgeese, how does that orinco gold card work with the ipaqs? fairly easy install? that is the card that i was looking at using.
