$150 Pocket PC system with PCMCIA slot!

[dman]

Anyone tried playing games yet? Does it register simultaneous keypresses, so you can use directional and other buttons at the same time?

And can we confirm both a CF slot and PCMCIA?

I've had one of these pocketPC's and the only reason I got rid of it was it's size. If you like ipaq's though, get it!

i think it only has a pcmcia and u need an adapter if you want to use a CF device

That sucks, whenever your wireless you can't use any programs you've installed in CF or PCMCIA hard drive. Still great price though. I'm buying it just to use as a GPS unit, with my serial/usb Earthmate. Thanks for the link!

It has a PCMCIA _And_ a CF slot???

Is this right?

It does have a PCMCIA slot, it does NOT have a CF (or SM) slot. You can pick up a PCMCIA adapter for relatively cheap I am told. Maybe $20 to $25 or so.

Awesome post. Thanks.

Does anyone know a link to where a Pocket PC 2002 upgrade can be found?

 

[Askalon]

I just wish they had more RAM in them. I my IPaq has 64 MB of RAM. I am thikng of selling off my Ipaq and getting one of these just for the savings....

2002 upgrade can not be obtained for manufacturer. i'm sure we can get it illegally though.

Has anyone confirm that the above email is indeed the address of "kod_mod"?

I have a dumb question,

can you use it with a keyboard?

Thanks,

The description on eBay says: "The cradle allows direct standard keyboard plug in".

Does anyone have more info on this?

Duh, ignore me

It's over now. People have started biding it up over $150 on Ebay.

Amigo P600C are pretty big unit. But this is because of PCMCIA slot built in feature. The screen seems bigger than Ipaq and I like the screen bright control scroll on it's left panel. This unit comes with PC2000 operating system and upgrading to PC2002 is possible but not thru the manufacturer. The package comes with a leather case, Cradle, Travel USB sync cable, AC and the unit itself. It also has backup battery so don't need to be paranoid about losing all the info when battery runs out.
