Amazon.com Product Description

Eye-catching as well as highly functional, Compaq's iPAQ 3765 Pocket PC features a powerful new operating system, CompactFlash expandability, and a fast Intel processor. Its 64 MB SDRAM and 32 MB ROM provide enough memory to hold a robust package of applications while leaving you a lot of room for your own applications.

The enhancements and improvements in Microsoft's Pocket PC 2002 operating system make the iPAQ 3765 even more powerful and easier to use. You'll get improved handwriting recognition, more reliable synchronization, increased security, and the ability to chat via MSN Messenger. It also features new Pocket versions of Outlook, Word, Excel, and Internet Explorer.

Work hard, but play hard, too. The iPAQ 3765 can play digital audio files (both MP3 and WMA) using the Windows Media Player software. It's also compatible with audible.com files, for listening to audiobooks, radio broadcasts, and more. You also get the Microsoft Reader e-book software.

The color TFT screen produces 4,086 colors, and you can view the screen from many angles and in a variety of lighting. Using the optional expansion jacket, you can add memory and modules--such as modems and cameras--using CompactFlash cards.

Other highlights of the Compaq iPAQ include a microphone and a speaker, as well as an audio-in jack. It features an infrared port for wireless data transfer. The Compaq iPAQ uses five buttons plus a five-way joystick. The iPAQ connects to either USB or serial ports. The iPAQ allows you to input data in your own handwriting, by soft keyboard, or by voice recorder. Both audible and visual alarms alert you to a scheduled event.

At 5.11-by-3.3-by-0.62 inches and weighing 6.3 ounces, the iPAQ 3765 is sporty and small, fitting in your hand or sliding into your pocket with ease. Compaq has also built in utilities so that frequent actions--such as switching between tasks, adjusting volume, and changing backlighting--are only a click away.

The iPAQ 3765 has a built-in lithium rechargeable battery that gives up to 12 hours of battery life. It also comes with a docking cradle, AC adapter for battery charging, and a USB connection cable. Compaq offers a one-year warranty on parts and labor.

Amazing.......2004-03-24

The Compaq iPAQ 3765 is an amazing PDA. Well, it's not really a PDA, it's an actual Pocket PC. You have to see it to believe it. It's got Pocket PC 2002, and it's awesome. It's got Microsoft Pocket Word, Pocket Excel, and basically Pocket outlook just spread into mini programs. If you don't want to sit at your computer and read your emails cause your in a rush, just sync your computer with your pocket pc and your ENTIRE inbox will be synced to your iPAQ. I basically created my iPAQ into a super iPAQ. I got the keyboard(which is fantastic), the dual slot flash card expansion pack, a 256 meg flash card, and a MGM flash card reader. A Palm pilot is NOTHING compared to what this thing can do. THey have so many application for this pocket pc. You can play your MP3's on windows media player, watch movies or clips on PocketTV(Download the software), Play games such as the Famous Age of Empires(INCREDIBLE) Rayman, Packman and many more. Print with it, play multiplayer games, make cartoons on PocketFlipbook(Download) surf the net(Need wireless), and more. Plus they now have mad an espansion card so you can get PHONE SERVICE on it. This is one of the greatest Technological creations ever.

awsome.......2003-11-07

i paid $120 on other sites the same thing was going $499

A high school junior.......2003-10-02

It helped me tremendously when doing my school work, This is because I could type notes on it (with an ipaq compatible keyboard, not included) without using a BULKY and indiscreet laptop, and easily EDIT my notes (sooo awesome and better than using the old fashioned wire-bound paper notebooks) when I transfer the notes to my computer. Highly recommended for students. BUT, the aspects of it that helped me in school are ones that you could find in almost any PDA retailing about $150 and up (due to "DocumentsToGo" and "4.0 student" software. Both are very necessary for students). You see, I had a Sony Clie SJ20 before I upgraded to this, and I realized that both did the same in terms of school work.

The main thing I don't like about it is the seemingly false advertising from compaq, saying you could get internet access. Not that you can't, you CAN, but only after purchasing

1) an expansion pack: WHEN YOU ADD THE EXPANSION PACK, FORGET THE TERM "POCKET PC" BECAUSE IT WILL NOT FIT WELL IN YOUR POCKET. It also makes it heavy. I hate the expansion pack because it's so bulky, and you can't find any cases on the market to fit the ipaq and the expansion pack, except for the case made by the manufacturer. I actually considered making my own case for it (because I'm into arts and crafts) just so I didn't have to spend more money on a case. Due to the expansion pack, I wanted to upgrade to one of the newer and smaller models of the ipaq because the unit is so indiscreet with the expansion pack.

2) A compatible Sierra Wireless Aircard: a lot of places don't even sell them

3) And setting up the internet service you will get (your new account) through a phone company. Hard for me, some places don't do internet access through pocket PCs.

Not to mention that the expansion pack is another $70-100 added onto the original price of the ipaq, and there's the price of the aircard and internet service (so monthly payments mean more money added onto the unit). So, when the company says, "internet access", be very wary of what you're getting into because a lot of leg work and money is involved. In total, the things previously mentioned are four extra things that would have made me not buy the ipaq if had known about them before.

The other thing I wasn't satisfied with is the windows media player, on which you can play MP3s. You can only play about seven of them, unless you install more memory (and getting more memory means getting a memory card, which means getting a dual slot expansion pack, which means more BULK...uggghh). I haven't tried a movie or any visual on it yet.

The battery power dies out quickly as well. So be prepared to see the "main battery low" sign appear on the screen every couple days or so (with regular usage).

Overall, if you want true satisfaction with this product, be willing to spend an extra $200-300, in addition to monthly internet service payments, and go through a lot of leg work.

MY SUGGESTION: buy a more expensive PDA that has built in internet access (well, if you want internet access at all...and if you don't, it's not really a pocket computer/PC), or simply save lots of money and don't buy a PDA with internet access. It seems that there are lots of great PDAs on the market that have all the same features that the ipaq 3765, minus the internet. Overall, the whole internet illusion that is set forth by pocket PC manufacturers isn't as easy to obtain as it seems with any pocket PC out right now (because even with the ones that claim they have built in internet, you still have to buy a specific and very expensive internet card, in addition to monthly service payments. Hope this helps!!

I'm Not Surprized...It's a Compaq Right!.......2003-02-22

I like the features of the unit. The PC compatibility, the ease of the async software and the display. However, like many many others, I am very disappointed with the longevity of the battery life. To put it bluntly, It SUCKS! Maybe 4-6 hours in the standby mode while not in use and at best 1-2 hours when on. It must stay in the charger to be any good at all. Also, with no backup battery to hold data, a long day or trip is out of the question unless you can charge in route. My advise...look at another option to purchase if you need to use this other then on your desk and in the charger cradle.

Poor battery life. Large size. No integrated media slot........2002-10-28

The battery life is pretty bad. Battery looses it's charge after a few days even if you don't use it. Had to buy an extra charger for the office. Device is never ready when I need it.

Device is large and troublesome to carry around. Grip is a little slippery. Newer models have integrated CF or SM slots. Wish I had spent the extra money for that.

Otherwise it's nice. Bright display.

Who wants a peice of Microsoft History?.......2007-06-28

Just having this card in my machine get's rid of the bad Juju and promotes healthy microsoft edicate. I hope Microsoft makes a note book and workstation since there hardware is what works with microsoft software. Thanks again. Hope to see more microsoft in my machine. You know what? I don't even care if something comes out with a faster connection. I would not sell my card right now, and I don't think it would be fare to look at anything faster, I would probably mess up my brain. Besides, I don't remeber asking for anything faster when I first had a computer, and when the speed addicts find my machine again I know it will get stolen. But there's always the Microsoft lawsuits that come after that. I hope this set's everything straight.

Simple Success!.......2006-05-23

I've been using 2 MN-730s with a MN-700 base station for several years with NO problems or quirks whatsoever. With the limited availability of these Microsoft hardware items lately, I've been forced to install other wireless cards (Belkin, Linksys, etc..) in the new PCs we've purchased. Without exception, the Microsoft wireless products are far easier to use and much more reliable in our experience, to any of the other products.

Covers the distance I need.......2005-02-16

When searching for a adapter I had trouble finding reviews that talked about how they performed over a extended distance, this one is working great so far, I'm using the mn730 with a linksys wireless G router that is about 350 feet away in a seperate house and although it indicates my signal strength is very low most of the time, I have no problems with the connection (with no additional antennas), i took a speed test and it reports I have about 800k downstream bandwidth, plenty enough for me. installation is simple, just make sure to watch out for static electricity.

Great Deal!!.......2004-12-22

Microsoft is getting out of the network hardware market, you'll find great deals on this stuff. I have 3 of these (got for $15 each), using them on Windows ME and XP (SP2) without any problems. They work with my Netgear WGR614v4 router and I have SBC Yahoo DSL. It's true that XP won't find/load a driver for card, but just load up MSBN from the CD or downloaded from MS site, then delete MSBN, you don't need it with XP. My kids are surfing and IMing all day long, no loss connections, no drop outs, no problems, extremely stable product.

Product Description

This 9-pin impact printer is blazing new trails in productivity. Engineered for dedicated printing in the most demanding warehouse and point-of-sale applications, the ML320/321 Turbo can easily run twice as long as most printers in its class! It can simplify any job on virtually any stock, and it's economical enough to put wherever you need data on the spot. The ML320/321 Turbo puts the "work" in workstations for wholesale or retail sales counters, even for service or manufacturing environments. Its relentless performance comes from the rugged printhead design that keeps your print images sharp for a 200-million character life. A lighter, stronger, more efficient motor reduces friction, heat build-up and wear. The long-lasting rack and pinion drive system ensures print quality longer than belt or cable systems. Plus, an impact-resistant chassis protects the entire mechanism, even in the harshest environments. For precisely formed output, a patented optical sensor accurately positions the printhead on the page, first time and every time. And the auto-tear feature accurately positions continuous forms for a clean tear at the perforation - eliminating wasted forms. This reliable, flexible 9-pin impact printer can meet your needs today and in the future.

Excellent unit if you can still find one.......2007-06-11

If you take multiple notes and have to be able to later review them quickly this unit can save hours of time and frustration - once in the cradle you can jump back and forth, "rewind" and "fast-forward" with ease. Also, no more fumbling with microscopic controls and indecipherable output, the cradle controls are large enough to use easily, and the internal speaker provides much clearer replay.

I don't know if Panasonic still makes these - I bought mine refurb, but they do show up on eBay from time to time.

Crappy Support.......2002-11-02

I ordered the Scan Maker with high hopes due to the outstanding ratings that I reviewed on many sites. I am not a techie, and was impressed by those reviews. However, once I received the scanner and called for help in setting it up, my hopes declined dramatically. You have 3 options for support. 90 days free basic support, $15 per incident for "advanced troubleshooting", and email support. There is also what is called "General Consulting" support @ $30 per call up to 30 minutes, and $1 per minute after that.

None of the calls are to 800 numbers.

The support you get is non-existent. The operators ask what is the problem, then they immediately send you a pre-written email. Which in my case, wasn't what I needed. After calling again (at my cost during the 90 days free help) I got another person who sent me a different email. That did help, but it didn't answer all my questions.

The Auto Document Feeder is weird. The primary "part" needed to guide the paper and cover the glass during the auto-feed is a little plastic piece that is not easy to put in place.

Don't even get me started on the manual and what it says about how the feeder is supposed to work.

Maybe you need to be a techie to operate the user-friendly, easy to operate scanner.

Needless to say, I'll be trying HP next.

Horrible Customer support and scanner quality.......2001-05-03

Impossible is the word to describe trying to get in touch with Microtek customer service. Not only is the product extremely unreliable, but customer service and technical support would rather you not call them if you have problems. I have owned two Microtek scanners, both products not supported by the manufacturer

This is by far the best portable karoke machine that I have bought! I have bought about five over the past several years. This memorex is great because it is so compact. The top loading cd is great! My friends and I have nicked named it R2D2. The only problem is that it is no longer manufactured, or manufactured under a new design (ugly).
