HP iPAQ rx3715 review

Tom's Hardware Guide takes a thorough look at the
HP iPAQ rx3715, which uses a Samsung 400MHz CPU (with Dynamic Voltage Scaling, like Intel's Speedstep, slowing CPU clock speed when little power is needed), packs in a 1.2 megapixel camera, 152MB of ROM memory, Bluetooth, and WiFi. We've mentioned it before, but HP's spin on the rx3715 is that it's a "Mobile Media Companion", and thus it comes pre-installed with Nevo software so it can double as a universal a remote control, as well as some other programs that'll allow you to stream videos from your computer
(though the software is a bit rough at this point and you can't stream MP3s). But besides all that, the most astonishing aspect of the rx3715 is the battery life, which lasts a whopping 8.5 hours with wireless off and doing basic tasks, and still some 7 hours of use with WiFi on, definitely top marks in the Pocket PC world.
