I have had one of these for three years now and it's absolutely first class.

Now he tells me I think I paid £275 for my Ipaq 1710 ,,,,I wrote this before I read this post....

I have an Ipaq 1710 with a wired stat receiver with Tom Tom 5 UK street map / Europe street map and I just love it, but on my wish list is a compact all in one Garmin which I understand has short wave traffic information so no expensive mobile phone calls like Tom Tom.

I don’t know why this should be because they must use the same mapping information, my Ipaq put me in the next road when I pull my car on our drive yet the Garmin has me on my drive??? and it has full postcode input, my TT only puts me in the town.

Anybody know how one changes the battery in a Ipaq 1710 as this is one problem if you use an Ipaq if the battery drains you have to re-load the software which could be a pain if you don’t have your computer about. The battery will only last two days without having a re-charge and yes the unit is off.
