Love this device 
2008-04-28
I purchased this item for just storing phone numbers and addresses that I can take with me. But it does so much more. I would recommemd this product to anyone who whats an organizer. It keeps track of your appointments, you can make notes if you need to and so much more. I am very glad that I purchaes this mobile organizer from Asus.
QUICK and SPEEDY Shipping. GREAT PRODUCT! 2008-04-21
The seller did a GREAT job shipping this product. The product itself is very user friendly and a very nifty tool for its price when compared to PALM or HP.
Had to cancel...

Had to cancel because of the delivery time, I was in a short trip to US. Nevertheless, great service and perfect refund.
Slow. Very Slow. 
2008-04-06
I had a Palm TX for 2 years, and loved it. But it died. The only additional functionality I wanted in a newer device was ability to play the Windows Media format, since most radio stations will only stream in that format. Unfortunately I bought, and had to return, the Asus A626. It ran extremely slow. I've seen other Windows Mobile devices in the store that run fast enough. But not this dog. Worst of all, it wouldn't play a WMA stream from a major radio station (CKLW), nor would it play any Shoutcast streams. I just bought a new Palm TX.
Love my pocket pc 2008-04-06
I purchased this handy little gaget for my budding business. I looked into Pocket PC phones which are double the cost of this little unit. Plus added monthly fees. I own a Palm pilot and was hoping this would come close to it in performance. Let me just say, I was very impressed. Syncing is a cinch, navigating is great, I don't always have to use the stylus the touch screen reads fingertips very nicely. I enjoy that I can change from portrait to landscape, the Excel mobile is just perfect. I have not tried the wifi/internet yet as what I purchased it for isn't necessary to access the internet. This thing is 20 times better than my old Palm Pilot. It comes with a case, very nice. 2 stylus. I love the hold key to lock the buttons as I carry this in my purse. I compared it to the HPIpaq and I feel they are very similar but this one was the better choice for me as it was a bit cheaper but still had the power I wanted. It has a SD card slot and if you have a card reader (my laptop has one), loading your data directly onto the card makes syncing not necessary all the time. I was suprised it didn't come with a cradle like my Palm Pilot. However, I'm glad it doesn't have one, I can say I hate those things, I much perfer a cable. This little guy will also charge when plugged into your laptop (like an Ipod). Mine came with Windows Mobile 6.0. I'd recommend this to anyone looking for this power but doesn't want a Pocket PC phone and all it's expense and monthly outrageous fees.
Great PDA except for video 2008-06-19
I have used this pda for several weeks now and I really like it. It is well-made and has great sound quality from earphones, and even from it's little speakers, considering the size. It runs Office files and other files such as the Bible plenty fast. It's only weakness is playing back Windows media video files. I have found that keeping files limited to 385kbps CBR works well. In order to look good and play smoothly, the best resolution I've found is 240x180 pixels at 24fps, instead of 320x240 pixels, which is the max screen resolution.
I have not tested the WiFi very much, but it has worked fine in airports. It does use the battery up quickly.
FYI, creating play lists in Windows media player is tricky. To create a playlist, you first need to add whatever files you want into the Now Playing directory. You may need to start playing them. Then you can hit Menu>Save Playist and give it a new name.
A good deal! 2008-06-18
I adore my ASUS A626. I use the contact list, task list, schedule, and documents daily in my job as a pharmacy technician. When I upgraded from my last PDA, I chose the A626 because it was an affordable Pocket PC, a great alternative to the Palm based PDA. Granted, my favorite games are unplayable now as the Pocket PC and Palm systems don't 'mesh' properly, but I love my A626.
The only downside I can see is the lack of accessories. I have only found one case for this item, and the case isn't that convenient (It has to be opened to write or page down in a document).
My personal pet peeve is I can't 'page down' in word on the handheld. I read documents on my handheld quite a bit, and the only way to 'page down' is to tap the bar on the side of the page. I've gotten too used to pressing the 'down' button on the direction pad of the handheld... But, that is just a pet peeve.
Am I glad I bought it? Yes. Would I buy it again? Definitely.
rolling disappointments 
2008-05-27
stoked to get it, specs seemed great, but got it and was distressed about thickness of it..oh well, just takes getting used to...but weird lag time from press of power button and actual display on and ready to use....not long, but longer than expected...then the OS seemed so slow....and for all its memory, it did not seem to juggle more than a few applications being open....THEN the final straw....after syncing one day, it would not power up...hard reset got the ASUS screen, the green Windows screen, then the screen would go black and the buttons would flash their blue backlight a few times and then nothing would happen...or the red light that indicated wifi connection would flash a few times and then nothing....all of this after less than 30 days of ownership....
ipaq 4000 series still the best in my book...too bad you cant put WM6 on those...oh well, asus...i am not impressed
ASUS 626 2008-05-08
Good machine. Needed a replacement for an aging pocket PC. Did not want a phone to infiltrate my pocket PC. It interfaces with my home PC seamlessly and has added functionality my old PPC did not have. With bluetooth and WIFI it is a great little PC. If you want a powerful hand held PC then, this is it.
Asus A626 2008-05-01
I bought the Asus A626 PDA as a gift for my son after having read several positive reviews. He seems to like this PDA very well so far.
