Hitachi SH-G1000

 

Let's start by admitting that PDA/phone combination devices just can't be as small and light as regular cell phones. Crucial PDA considerations, such as display visibility and input convenience, work against size and weight. But if you don't insist on...

This thing is fantastic.

 

I read all these reviews on Epinions and decided to purchase the unit anyways since I got a really good deal. I was expecting it to suck after everything I have read about it on this site. Well I was suprised to find out that most people that have ...

Durable - reliable, until it dies completely

 

Vibrate mode is akin to a palm sander. Ring is nice and loud.

Tends to die for no reason and need replaced.

A very useful clunker.

 

I have this unit for over a year now and I'm loving it. It's basically a hand held computer with a phone. It's clunky, but it does everything I want. I can review my MS Office Excel spreadsheets and Word docs. It has a USB port so I can easily copy ...

Does Excel, Word & PDF. A voice rec that is not person specific.

NO Support. Bulky.

Consumer review (epinions.com)

Gee, a $1,000.00 PDA/Phone. What was I thinking???

 

A good friend (no, really) turned me on to the G1000. A ground breaking converged device now showing it's age. Lots of features and relatively easy to use. Poor phone integration, awkward when held like a conventional phone - a headset is a must. ...

Feature rich, web-on-the-go

Bulky, balky, book sized beast ; expensive and of questionable practicality and reliability

A Computer AND a Phone!

 

Thumb Board makes typing quick. Expandible SD slot. Easy to backup.

Expensive. Bulky. Takes some getting used to as a phone.

A Computer AND a Phone!

 

I purchased the Hitachi G1000 six months ago with my tax return. Sprint was offering a deal that marked it down from $650 to $500 and my wife actually encouraged me to get it (sorry guys, she's taken). I felt very nervous dropping so much ...

Overall good useful device, but some minor issues...

 

Massive feature list. Performs acceptably.

Minor reliablity issues. Needs maintenance release from Hitachi.
