1.0 out of 5 stars Because of Design, Doesn't Work With All PDA's, January 30, 2003

This item seemed to be the right price at the right time. My eagerness to try this product out was matched by the speed of the shipping (thank you Amazon.com).

SO... after work, I installed the drivers and software and plugged the device into my Audiovox Maestro (for those in the know, this is simply the Toshiba e570 with less RAM and sold under another manufacturer). BUT IT DIDN'T WORK. Going over the troubleshooting in the manual, it said to make sure it was plugged in and to make sure that the pocket pc worked. THAT'S IT!!!

After waiting quite some time for a response from their email tech support, I hunted down the number of this place (Xirlink d/b/a Veo). For those wondering, it is [phone].

Anyway, FINALLY got someone in tech support and was told that, because of the EVER SO SLIGHT rounding at the top of the Maestro, the camera was about 2 mm too short for the contacts on the prongs.

Also, I would like to confirm that the construction is flimsy. I would have liked to have tried this item out... but I didn't get to! :(

This is a very simple camera. Don't expect bells and whistles with this camera. The best resolution is 640x480. After taking a few pictures the jpeg was about 45k. You can specify an alternate path, so you can store the images out on a flash card, nice touch. There is some room to change the brightness, which does help some. The product seems a little flimsy, cheap plastics. However, if you need to take quick pictures and quality is not an issue, this little camera will seem to do the trick. Included is a sleek carrying case and software for your PC to create albums. After taking a few snapshots I did notice the battery did drain, and my iPAQ is the older 3635, which is notorius for quick discharges. My idea is to use the camera and a compatible MS Access database to capture people that I meet, so I can finally remember who I meet.

I too just purchased a VEO Photo Traveler for a Dell Axim, and experienced the same problem as a previous review described. Because of the off-center positioning of the CF card slot and the slightly rounded top of the Axim, the card would not seat properly. I spoke with VEO tech support and they indicated that they had two separate versions of this product and had made a version specifically for Dell that I guess is only available on the Dell web site :(.

I am working on getting an exchange with them right now, but from a product marketing standpoint, I would think that they need to improve their descriptions of which PPCs this will fit in.
