The expansion jacket adds incredible versatility to the IPAQ when used with the right products. For example plug an IBM Microdrive in and store 340mbs worth of files! There are also 1GB versions making the IPAQ the most powerful PDA on the market. Do make sure you check specifications when purchasing network cards or other drives for the expansion sleeve because it may have compatability issues. All in all though a 5 star product!

Q: Why so much more than the CF sleeve? A: a battery
21 Jun 2000
Amazon Verified Purchase
In case you're wondering, the PCMCIA (PC Card) expansion pack costs more because it's got its own rechargeble battery (PC Cards need more juice than CF cards). I assume it recharges from the cradle along with the iPaq. It's bigger the the CF sleeve, of course, but if you want to be the first on your block with proper wireless web access (none of the Palm web clippings nonsense), you'll have to take the PC Card expansion route.

Bulky, but very useful
9 Oct 2001
Until the recent release of low power CF wireless lan cards, this was your only option for going mobile with you iPaq Pocket PC. I've used the sleeve extensively with a Cisco Aironet 340 WLAN card and it works great. Want to go wide area? Slap in a Seirra Wireless Aircard and truely go mobile.
While the sleeve is a bit bulky, the heft definately is out weighed by the usefulness. With new Pocket PC 2002 iPaq's (or the pending upgrade from Compaq for current owners), you can use VPN features while away from the office. The nice thing is Compaq seems very commited to the current form factor, meaning that even if you buy a new iPaq, the sleeve will still work for some time to come.

I've got an ipaq 3835. I'm using the PC Card sleve with a Sierra Wireless CDPD modem, which draws very little power. Perfect tool for the remote sysadmin.
