Product Description:
As a busy professional, getting more done in less time is a challenge you face every day. You need a convenient and reliable way to store your information - and keep it up-to-date - while away from your desk. Small and light, the HP Jornada 720 Handheld PC delivers the power, speed, and flexibility you need while on the go. Packed with memory, it lets you run the applications you need, as well as send and receive e-mail and use the Internet to do business away from your office.

Amazon.com Review:
One of the nice things about Windows CE devices is that manufacturers don't have to stick to a specific design. They can make large screens or small screens, add keyboards or rely solely on the touch screen for input, and basically do whatever they want. Hewlett-Packard decided to make a do-anything device when they designed the Jornada 720, and on most counts they have succeeded.

The device sports a keyboard just large enough for comfortable touch typing and a large 640 x 240 screen that makes Web browsing and document editing much easier than is the case with a smaller device. This useful combination means that most people will be able to use the Jornada 720 as a notebook computer replacement. However, if you're looking for the ultimate in portable handheld computing, you'll have to look elsewhere.

The 720 is about as loaded as a Windows CE device can get; it comes with an integrated 56 Kbps V.90 modem, docking station for easy connection to a PC, AC adapter, and rechargeable battery. It's outfitted with 32 MB of RAM and a 206 MHz StrongARM processor that really makes applications fly. On the multimedia side you get an integrated speaker and stereo headphone jack for audio playback, and one of the most beautiful TFT active matrix displays we've seen. It can mix and match more than 65,000 colors at once, renders very crisp text, and never had trouble keeping up with our input like inferior passive matrix screens do.

The very thing that makes the Jornada 720 so useful--its relatively large size--is also its biggest drawback. Its weight can make it unwieldy, and there's no good way to get a grip on it when there isn't a flat surface to use it with. We ended up accidentally pressing keys far too often when holding the unit with one hand, though with a little practice juggling becomes much easier.

If you are graduating to the Jornada from a smaller handheld (such as a Palm) instead of slimming down from a notebook, prepare to be underwhelmed by its portability. Expect to be impressed, however, by its zippy performance, generous display, and expansion possibilities. --T. Byrl Baker

Pros:

Large, colorful display makes working with large documents practical
Keyboard is large enough for touch-typing, albeit at a slower rate than a full-sized keyboard allows
Comes standard with so many features that you likely won't have to buy upgrades for some time

Cons:

It's heavy and too big for most pockets
Difficult to use without sitting it down on a flat surface

Amazon.com Product Description:
The 32 MB Jornada 720 is designed for the busy professional and is a convenient and reliable way to store your information and keep it up to date while away from your desk. With the Jornada 720, you can access your critical data with the high-performance processor, high-speed memory data bus, and 2-D graphics acceleration. It features a comfortable keyboard (three-quarters the size of a normal keyboard) with embedded numeric keypad and a touch screen. The quick-launch screen icons and user-configurable hot keys make finding the information you need easy. Enjoy a crisp, richly colored display with a 640 x 240 resolution.

The Jornada 720 software allows you to send and to receive e-mail while away from your office. It features Microsoft Pocket Outlook and Internet Explorer for Handheld PC 4.01 (as well as the desktop version of Microsoft Outlook 2000). Create or edit documents as well as spreadsheets, and view presentations using pocket versions of familiar Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.

At just over a pound, the compact HP Jornada 720 Handheld PC fits easily into your briefcase or handbag and offers you the advantage of up to nine hours of continuous use. It comes with a docking cradle that supports a serial connection to your PC, allowing you to synchronize with your desktop or notebook PC to keep all your work current. (You can also use an optional USB cable to connect to your PC.) It's powered by a rechargeable lithium-ion battery that lasts up to nine hours and includes an AC adapter.

Other features include PC Card Type II, CompactFlash Type I, and Smart Card reader card slots; and an infrared port that can connect with compatible IrDA- equipped devices. It also has an audio speaker and microphone, a headphone jack, and a built-in voice recorder.

The Jornada is backed by a one-year warranty.

- Great little system
this is a very nice little system. it's a little out dated but what do you exspect buying old tech. it has very good functionality, easy to use. alot of people complain about the key board but i think its perfect for the king of tool your buying. it's not a full size laptop, so it's got to be compact and i think hp did a really good job doing that.

- Brilliant!
Don't think PDA...think small computer. Because that's what this really is. With new micro computers such as the Asus EEE now becoming popular but still costing heaps, time to have another look! Can do everything on this unit, including play movies with freeware software, plus do all of your office tasks and internet browsing. New memory card sizes make it a lot more valuable than when it first came out...add a 2GB card, and store lots of movies, documents, presentations and MP3 files!

- not a great item
It is not a great item if u just fancy a touch screen without much functionality and outdated techology

- Small but Sweet
This is a marvelous device, great for a writer. I can work on my stories on the fly and synchronize to my laptop for editing.
Containing Excel, Word, Power Point, Outlook, it is everything you can ask for in on-the-go computing.
The charge lasts about 9 hours at a time; I plug it in every other night to keep it topped off, and carry it in my pocket on the subway.
Lay in an extra battery if you can (before HP stops making the product - they are up to Jornada 900)

- Good memories but you can't go home again
I am on my 2nd Jornada 720; the first one I positively loved, but in the rush to upgrade (and free up some money) I sold it in 2003.

Recently the Jornada handhelds have fallen into Bargain Bin status, and I picked up my current 720 and a 680e (older sibling) for almost nothing. The 720 is by far the snappier and better of the two. The 680e is a little heavier and bigger, and better as a mobile typing platform.

However, these are 1998-2000 era machines; and things have ... Read More
