Battery never lasts a full round, biggest load of shyte but in keeping with everything else relating to this shyte company.

Whoever designed them never thought that while signing usually touch the screen with their little finger! This makes the machine think that the stylus is touching there and bollocks the whole thing up, usually requiring a "clear" and a resign!
Really the ergonomics of this pda is so wrong and the designer hasnt a clue tbh

When I was being trained to do the training on them, we were told they were worth £1500 each. In one office, I had to send 15 back because they were faulty.

Thery told us they were £3000 so i would say £300! There is no way they are worth £1500 or £3000 !

Although I don't see the ones we use but then I remembered that ours are about 10 years old (technology wise ).

The small courier firms round here use the same PDA's as us. The money RM apparently spent on them they could've got some that were'nt the size/weight of a brick. Do we really need all the functions/buttons that are on them. I've never had to send a message, you can't use the phone. The only good thing on them is the Sat Nav and that is'nt the best.

The ones we have are the CN3 and they are not 10 year old tech! They are about £1500 at full retail although RM got them a LOT cheaper when they bulk bought them originally. However if you lose/break one and RM have to buy a one off they will pay near enough the full price.

Quite right 10 year old technology would be far superior

There worth £500 each

Not known anyone to break one, but have known to lose one though.

Several have been broken in my office, they end up in the back of the van and someing falls on them they break really really easily.

Normally a hard reboot will fix them though

I normally find a hard boot is better.

Ours are 3 years old now and tbh I've seen them many years ago (the software has been updated but then that happens to every computer system) but the thing is I've seen other delivery outfits with much smaller and more ergonomically designed so why didn't RM buy the better ones??

[Pat Ostman]

so why didn't RM buy the better ones??

Is that a rhetorical question?

I know, a two year old thread but I couldn't resist.

Mate received a phone call on one of them last month on delivery, someone flogging pet insurance!

Does the PDA really need to remind you that the battery is running out 572,176 times a second?

The one i had today was a right pile of crap,told the PHG that i will refuse to use it again,it kept switching off,poxy thing.
