Excellent.. but not for everybody
By Dmitry Glozman
I was looking for small inexpensive pda (Windows pocket PC) that I would use for reading books, playing few games, and keep my contacts. There are only few like that available in US. IPAQ RX4200 just came out and I decided to give it a try. My previous PDA was Dell Axim X3.It is smaller than most PDAs, especially a screen (only 2.8 inches) but it is well build and very comfortable in hands. Reading books on rx4200 is very comfortable (I use Haali Reader - excellent free program for reading books). Screen is bright - IMHO better quality then Axim X3 - and PDA is very comfortable in hand, especially in landscape mode. The stylus is good size, the only issue is it is placed in the bottom left corner (if you hold PDA in landscape mode) and it is a little difficult to take out.Overall I like it a lot - due to its size and build quality. For people who want to play games on it - there might be an issue - there is no directional pad at all on this PDA, so basically only games that can be played on it are those with stylus.

good for med students.
By J. Catanzaro
Got my PDA right when it came out. Windows makes it easy to use. Used it during my internal medicine and pediatrics rotations so far. Downloaded Harrison's, Harriet Lane etc. for it and it worked well. I have yet to have a single problem with it. Slim design fits right in my shirt pocket during rounds. Added a sweet 1 GB card for it, because its not like a LifeDrive, and it holds everything i need, including some mp3's for listening while reading or playing games on it. Battery life is good. Very impressed overall

By David Slater
The 4200 has worked well for me.I have downloaded several medical reference books and software packages that are easily retrieved and read on the go.Swapping files with my home computers has been as simple as any other external thumbdrive. Drag and drop.I purchased the device for it's weight and size as I had not wanted to be bogged down running from call light to call light as a patient care technician or during clinical training as a nurse.I have to go fishing for it in my multi pocketed cargo pants, as it is light enough not to notice.I installed a 2gig card and loaded some music to de-stress and have been pleasantly suprized by the sound quality. The few pictures I loaded are impressively clear and sharp.The wireless hooked up without any problems at home, at school, and at the hospital. I like the way the emails are summarized so I can view who is writing without worrying about having bits added.I use the calendar,and it sinks with Outlook without any problem. I also use notes.The ability to quickly jot something down(or voice record a thought) has solved the thicket of post-it notes I use to contend with.The touch screen has worked very well. Letter recognizer gets it right most of the time, which is impressive given my handwriting.The ability to surf the web has been the least satisfying, although a fast check of the weather, sports scores, or news has been useful.I downloaded a free map program that works really well for a quick check on directions around town.I understand that many phones are now capable of many of the same functions, but I'm glad not to have the distraction of the phone on me while at work or school. This is a tool for productivity. I find the phone a tool for wasting a lot of time.So now i'm dependant the rx4200 which is a good thing.If I must have something to critize it would be an inability to really personalize the today screen. There are commercial software readily available to change it but I haven't bothered as the navigation works well enough for now.What's very cool is that you can whip it out anywhere.I think I'll go play with my IPAQ now on my hammock.Perhaps read about last nights NBA game,review some concepts from yesterday's lecture, look over the upcomming weeks events, write my sister a quick note, look up my mother in laws latest complaint, listen to my new music, add a few sentences to the word doc paper I'm writing, and the kids well think I'm out there playing games. I could do that to if I had the time.
