Review of Toshiba e335 Pocket PC

I used to be a die-hard pocket pc fan. My first PDA was Casiopia E200 with Windows CE 2.0Toshiba e335 is my latest PDA, actually 6th PDA.It's interesting to tell you folks that my 5th PDA is SONY Clie SJ30 color with Palm OS.After using several lines of Pocket PCs - 1 Casio, 3 iPaqs, and now Toshiba.I can now say honestly to all of you that Microsoft has too many bugs.Most of the problems (big and small) Pocket PC users experience is all becuase of problems in Pocket Windows OS it self.It is just not reliable as Palm OS period.You don't have to take my word for it.You can try Palm PDA and Pocket PCs like I did and see for your self, although it can cost you some money.To put things simple, I was getting more work done with the SONY Pda with Palm OS than I ever managed to do with my Pocket PCs (old and recent)Sure, Pocket PC roks in looks and all its multi-media features.I downloaded tons of MP3 and JPG pics into my Toshiba PDA. but Pocekt PC is more of a toy than a work horse like Palms are.It's just hard to get any work done with Pocket PCs.It's just not as efficient and qucik as Palm OS is.Toshiba e335 like other Pocket PCs, suffer from similiar Windows releated problmes.Syn. problem, locks-up, (Microsoft's fault)and screen releated problem, power releated problem (Toshiba's fault)I somewhat regret buying Toshiba e335 as I expectd more from the latest Pocekt PC technology that it would be more like my SONY palm. After just one use of Palm based PDA, I can truly say that Palm has more experience in making PDA os than Microsoft does yet.I wish the next Microsoft pocket windows will be more like Palm combined with powerful MP3 and graphic features.
