If you have ever bought any technological gadget, then you know how quickly they can become obsolete. Technology moves at an increasingly rapid pace. A brand new computer built in 2007 is considered obsolete or slow by January of 2008. It is this rapid advancement in technology that keeps us on our toes and keeps us reaching for the next best gadget to buy. One of the most popular technological gadgets of our time has been the Compaq iPAQ Pocket PC.

Back in the day, the Compaq iPAQ Pocket PC 3835 was the ultimate in technology. It contained pc software that was similar to many applications running on desktop and laptop computers, but instead in a more portable device. The hand held device featured 64 MB RAM and 32 MB ROM, and featured a 240 x 320 color screen that was far superior to many other models of the time. It certainly was more than the Palm had to offer, but it only got better.

The 3835 had the fastest StrongARM processor at 206 MHz and featured an expansion slot for additional capabilities to add software and hardware.

The biggest turn for Compaq/HP has come in the way of the pocket pc Smartphone. This Smartphone is a great blend of the cell phone and pocket pc. As other companies have shown, more people want to combine their pocket PCs and their capabilities of making and receiving calls and turn it all into one amazing pocket pc phone. This does not even factor in the added advantages of getting a camcorder and camera, plus Bluetooth and Wi-Fi capabilities.

As we have seen before and you will undoubtedly see again over time, technology is moving at an incredibly advanced pace.

It was a great palm pocket pc to own and use, but along came Hewlett-Packard’s buy out of Compaq and suddenly a new world of possibilities opened up. The 3900 series models featured a faster XScale processor and offered more available features and programming.

Competitors force companies to come up with faster, better models as a way to keep pace with the demands of consumers who want bigger memory, faster processing speeds and slimmer designs. The Compaq iPAQ Pocket PC 3835 had to give way to the new 3900 series. Even that series is now becoming obsolete as Hewlett Packard continues to develop new technology.
