"I was excited about the new iPAQ 111 but it hasn't really lived up to my expectations."
Portion of actual user comment on amazon.com

Users are generally pleased with the performance of the HP iPAQ 111 and find its features very good. The hardware configuration of the iPAQ 111 is considered acceptable for day to day use, but running more than 4 programs is reported to cause significant slowdown.

The screen has received mixed opinions from users. Some find its quality very good, while others find text unreadable and viewing very difficult due to low resolution. All users agree however that the touchscreen is very responsive.

The Wi-fi connectivity has very good results, but most users have not tested the bluetooth connectivity the HP iPAQ 111 offers.

Users have found the keyboard to be very good and praise the software keyboard that looks like a real one.

Even though some problems have been reported with the iPAQ 111, most users are very pleased with their purchase and would recommend it to others. The good hardware configuration and large number of features make it very attractive to PDA users looking to replace their old units.
