    Good price with great functionality. When reading reviews from users or reviewers, i start to think am I will feel comfortable using this PDA. But after I bought and use it, it's not as bad as thought before. I feel comfortable either using it landscape or portrait. For battery issues, I've been use this for listening musics for around four hours (using other player, not windows media player 10 it has on it's package), and it's only loose 30% of it's power.
