Also to be commended is the mostly excellent design of the unit. Even with dual expansion slots one for SD and the other for CF cards the unit is very thin and lightweight.

This makes for a PDA that's not only very capable and can run lots of software for the Pocket PC that's out there now, it's also easy to take it along with you. Looking at the bottom edge, again you can see that the unit is actually very thin. Looking at the bottom also reveals the switch which controls the onboard wireless network adapter. Integrated WiFi is a nice touch and is very useful for retrieval of e-mail or lightweight web browsing.

In our testing experience, the onboard WiFi adapter works very well and we have had nearly no problems using it. Others have mentioned that the WiFi quits working after certain software installations but we have been unable to duplicate this.

With the onboard WiFi adapter you can also synchronize to your desktop or laptop computer. You can even remain connected to the ActiveSync desktop software to do such things as perform backups or even install and remove software programs. We have only a few minor complaints with the WiFi adapter.

First, when you synchronize, the connection between handheld and desktop PC is not easily broken short of powering off the unit. Actually, we have found that opening ActiveSync on the device and tapping "stop" will disconnect you, though this does not seem to be documented anywhere.

If you should need to dock the unit after using wireless sync this could be a problem. Another of our complaints is the relatively short range of the adapter. While the adapter continues to work quite far away from our access point it seems that signal strength is shaky and falls off quickly even from short distances of only a room or two away from the access point.

The IR hardware though certainly present leaves a lot to be desired. The port is on the side where it would have been better placed at the top of the unit. Who wants to hold their PDA sideways to beam information? It seems that the implementation is barely functional. Battery life is the most important point of any mobile device like the E Thankfully it doesn't disappoint in this regard. The provided battery will run the unit for about 2 hours with reasonable use of the WiFi adapter and moderated backlight settings.

When we used the PDA to play an audio book with the backlight off we got at least three hours out of it before we tired of listening. The battery was still pretty well charged though. Toshiba does offer for sale a much larger battery in terms of both capacity and actual size. It clips onto the back of the PDA, thereby making it a bit thicker to hold though it should run much longer with that battery.

Of course, if you use a modem or other power hungry device with your PDA, you might really appreciate the extra runtime of the battery. Getting the battery in and out is an easy enough task.

Toshiba designed a very solid locking mechanism for the battery that holds it in securely. While we like this design very much, the battery could probably be made to move in and out of position a little more easily than it does now. It uses volatile memory for its main storage.

That is to say that if power is removed the memory loses its contents. Thankfully Toshiba does provide at least a small "buffer" of some kind to keep the memory running while batteries are removed or changed. While on the subject of memory, the Toshiba E comes with 64MB of main memory. This memory is shared between storage and programs that are running.

In our tests this has turned out to be enough memory for most programs that we used on the PDA. However, with some of the intended uses for this devices being media playback or even audio book playback, we feel the amount of main memory should at least have been doubled to MB.

Also, some programs are rather large like the Adobe Acrobat mobile reader program. We would highly recommend purchase of an additional CompactFlash or Secure Digital card for use with this PDA if you want to load large programs or play media clips.

If you want to use the PDA to play back MP3 or Windows Media format files, you won't be disappointed by either audio quality or volume from the earphone port. Output is stereo and it drove an average pair of earphones quite well. It also worked well with a cassette shell adapter used to feed the audio into a tape player. The unit has a multipurpose port at the bottom for connection to at least the USB cradle and an external display adapter.

There is probably more functionality than that present, but we don't see Toshiba providing cables for sale to use the plug as a serial port or even break it out into a variety of ports It would be nice to see at least a pinout of the connector, so that those with the experience could make their own "breakout boxes" or optional connections. As mentioned before, overall design of the unit is excellent.

It isn't rounded like the Compaq iPaq, but rather is a much more squared off design, which we prefer. However, there are a few things about the design that aren't so great. The IR port is located on the side of the device, making it a bit of a hassle to link it up with another computer or PDA. Another small design problem is the location of the voice recorder button. Whenever we grabbed the PDA to pick it up or remove it from the provided slipcase, we found ourselves always hitting the voice record button and turning the unit on.

It proved annoying enough to turn the voice recorder shortcut off, but that didn't stop the unit from turning when the button was pressed. The carrying case provided for the unit is certainly more than adequate and is easy to use.

We'd prefer it if Toshiba had included a case where the PDA could remain inside and simply have the front cover flipped open, though. At least such a case is offered as an option. Popular Links Help finding a driver. Recently Viewed. Where's my model or serial number? For computers click here..
