 At
0.5 inches (1.27 centimeters) thick and weighing about 5 ounces,
the Compaq Aero 1550 pocket PC fits in a shirt or jacket pocket.
It is the first of the Compaq Aero series to adopt Microsoft's
latest operating system for PDAs that includes pocket versions
of Microsoft Word, Excel, Internet Explorer, and many other
applications. Despite its thin and light design, the Compaq Aero
1550 packs 16 MB each of RAM and ROM and features a 70 MHz
processor.
Besides the Microsoft Windows operating system, the Compaq Aero
1550 is loaded with Compaq's own QMenu, Qutilities, and File
Explorer programs. These utilities place frequently used
actions--such as switching between or closing tasks, adjusting
volume, and changing backlighting--only a click away.
Other
features of this Pocket PC include an infrared port for
one-button data transfer, a CompactFlash card slot, a
microphone, and a headphone output.
The Compaq Aero 1550 delivers up to 14 hours of use through its
rechargeable lithium-ion battery. A backup battery and an AC
adapter help keep the unit charged so you never lose your data.
In addition to these features, the Compaq Aero 1550 offers a
one-year warranty on parts and labor.
