Summary: Great little system
Comment: this is a very nice little system. it's a little out dated but what do you exspect buying old tech. it has very good functionality, easy to use. alot of people complain about the key board but i think its perfect for the king of tool your buying. it's not a full size laptop, so it's got to be compact and i think hp did a really good job doing that.

Summary: Brilliant!
Comment: Don't think PDA...think small computer. Because that's what this really is. With new micro computers such as the Asus EEE now becoming popular but still costing heaps, time to have another look! Can do everything on this unit, including play movies with freeware software, plus do all of your office tasks and internet browsing. New memory card sizes make it a lot more valuable than when it first came out...add a 2GB card, and store lots of movies, documents, presentations and MP3 files!
Customer Rating:
Summary: not a great item
Comment: It is not a great item if u just fancy a touch screen without much functionality and outdated techology
Customer Rating:
Summary: Small but Sweet
Comment: This is a marvelous device, great for a writer. I can work on my stories on the fly and synchronize to my laptop for editing.
Containing Excel, Word, Power Point, Outlook, it is everything you can ask for in on-the-go computing.
The charge lasts about 9 hours at a time; I plug it in every other night to keep it topped off, and carry it in my pocket on the subway.
Lay in an extra battery if you can (before HP stops making the product - they are up to Jornada 900)

Summary: Good memories but you can't go home again
Comment: I am on my 2nd Jornada 720; the first one I positively loved, but in the rush to upgrade (and free up some money) I sold it in 2003.
Recently the Jornada handhelds have fallen into Bargain Bin status, and I picked up my current 720 and a 680e (older sibling) for almost nothing. The 720 is by far the snappier and better of the two. The 680e is a little heavier and bigger, and better as a mobile typing platform.
However, these are 1998-2000 era machines; and things have changed substantially. Heck, they can barely play video! The two biggest signs of obsolescence are the serial cable for connecting (though ActiveSync still works) and Pocket Internet Explorer 4.0. For most of the serious business stuff people would use these for such as taking notes, spreadsheets, calendar and contacts, these are invaluable.
However, the lack of a modern web browser hurts severely, as checking your e-mail, accessing bank accounts, corporate intranets, secure websites, etc., becomes difficult or impossible.
Still, despite all the whiz-bang functionality of the Pocket PC toys, I still prefer the palmtop format. I've had more than a few people wonder what these new gizmos were I was taking notes on at meetings, not having any idea how old they are. And for discreetly being able to type notes/ideas there's nothing better. The 720 can support flash cards and PCMCIA network cards, so it can (or was) useable as a mini web terminal with a wireless card.
That was a lot of fun, being able to whip it out, surf the web and take care of errands/business, and put it back in your pocket while the old school road warrior is still trying to get their laptop booted up and connected.
While the 720 is at the tail edge of usefulness, it's still a neat little computenmaschinen to have around.
