5.0 out of 5 stars NEC MobilePro P300, February 18, 2003

This review is from: NEC MobilePro P300 Pocket PC (Electronics)

Pros:
With the use of StrongArm 206MHz CPU, it run all built-in applications with a very high speed, even faster than most xScale 400MHz machine because the current OS is optimized for Strongarm but not for xScale CPU.
It plays movie smoothly with about 25fps using PocketTV.
I think the P300 is one of the smallest dual-slot pocketpc nowadays, with the use of CF+SD/MMC, you can use many peripherals on CF such as GPS, Wifi, Bluetooth easily with a relatively low price. CF memory is also much cheaper than SD.
The big screen looks great in both indoor and outdoor, the metallic casing gives you a high-end feel than those plastic case.
The 4 app buttons lit on with a blue light when pressed that similar to Asus A600, and there is a 7-colour LED at the top of the screen that can set as different types of notification.
There is a removable hinged cover that can protect the unit.
I bought this P300 in Hong Kong at about US$256, maybe this price is the lowest price for dual-slot pocketpc now!

Cons:
32MB ram is too small for regular use, a memory card is essential.
The SD slot is not SDIO, that means you can only use the slot as memory expansion.
The battery is not removable.

My husband is very picky and in the past he would go shopping for PDA's but he could never make up his mind as he could not find everything he wanted on one PDA. This one does it all! You can use it for work and play. He took it out of the box and just started using it without even reading the manual, it's just so easy!. He loves it.
