I learned quickly that while the iPAQ was a great PDA, I used the onboard storage up quick. An e-book or two, a map or 3, maybe a couple of mp3, all of your "pocket outlook" files, avant go content and, heaven forbid, a short video file and you don't have any memory left at all... you can't even rub two bits together!
If you don't want to spend the coin for the PC Card expansion pack and battery time isn't a big issue to you, then this is a great solution. You can throw in any of several compact flash modules or, if you are a real space junkie you can use an IBM microdrive in it. At about a fourth of the cost of a PC Card pack you can add in that extra 128 mb. A warning tho. Given the opportunity to add in more storage, you will want to. I think everyone who can will want a Microdrive in this thing at one point or another. Sure, it drains the battery a bit more but in my opinion that is more from you using the content you carry more often and not a serious drain from the expansion pack.
Happy computing.

This a good product for its price. For (...)dollars you can add a modem or expand memory or add a wireless ethernet or ethernet or make your IPAQ GPS capable. But one thing product lacks is that it uses the battery of the IPAQ so it reduces the time you can use the IPAQ. The PC card expansion has its own battery so it helps the IPAQ last a little longer. And the PC card expansion has more items that can be used with it. So you just have to see which is more usable for you the CF card expansion or the PC card expansion or none if you dont need the expansions.

The single compact flash expansion sleeve is a minimal way to go for expanding your iPAQ. The iPAQ can play mp3's directly off compact flash, there are a lot of available expansions for compact flash.
It might be wiser to look at one of the "PC card expansion sleeves" as they include an extra battery! You can pick up Compact Flash adaptors for PC cards cheep, like under ten US dollars.
Compact Flash memory can be found at fairly low prices.
With this expansion installed - the protective cover which comes with the iPAC 3765 is a fairly tight fit.

Great Deal on IPAQ expansion pack
I ordered this refurb expansion pack with a little hestation; as always one is never quite sure what a refurb will be like. At the price it was offered I couldn't pass it up. Read more

Wonderful! Slightly bulky though.
I bought this for my iPaq 3650. It works great but it adds a lot of bulk. As most of iPaq owners know, the iPaq is slitly bulky by itself, so when you add the CF Exp. Read more

Problem is not with the product
My problem with this product is not the functioning of it, but the fact that cases made for the IPAQ, won't support use of this product!!! Read more

A must have for all ipaq users
Although it increases the weight of the unit, it is well
worth this extra storage space given.

Not bad, but not great either
For 40 bucks, you can't really go wrong, or can you.....
Listen, if you are using this just for the purpose of backing up files, go with it, but if you are going to be using this... Read more

Works perfectly
I agree with most other reviewers, that this SHOULD be included when buying an IPaq. All the others do. Read more

Good...But big
Before I begin, I love my iPaq. However, this is my biggest gripe with the iPaq, they need this expansion pack to throw a CF card into them. Read more
