    Good Points: Looks good
    Seems physically robust
    Has CF and SD expansion


    Bad Points: Frequent reboots
    Poor battery life
    Poor siting of audio controls
    Atrocious support from Toshiba


    General comments: Would be happy with this Toshiba e740 PDA if not for the frequent (several times daily) reboots with complete data loss. Most of the time spent using it is backing up or restoring.

    I found that I was always accidentally activating the audio record button as it was placed in exactly the position that your fin ...

    The Toshiba e740 Pocket PC is an excellent machine. I have the Bluetooth model. Great compatibility with Win XP, does more than I need it to and FAST (*406 mhz).
