Jul 2003 Posts: 22 Thumbs up 2215 replacement grips!!! HP finally listened and
is providing replacement grips for the Ipaq 2215. The kit includes the grips and
some other things, though I'm not sure what. The technician thought it included
the battery compartment cover and a new carrying case, but couldn't confirm that
for me. I simply called HP tech support, they confirmed I was still under
warranty, and then put it in the mail. I already received an e-mail that it
shipped. Here's the instructions for ordering and replacing, directly from the
HP web site: Please note that, if the side grips (Spare Part Number 349036-001)
of your iPAQ Pocket PC h2200 unit are damaged due to a defective slip case, the
side grips and slip case can be replaced by you. The replacement side grips and
slip case can be ordered by you, please contact our Technical Support at
1-800-652-6672, options 3, 1 (enter 10 digit phone number), 2. If you are a
first time caller, your phone number will not be registered in the database. You
will need to enter your phone number twice and then wait for the routing center
to put you through to a Technical Support Specialist. To remove the defective
side grip(s), complete the following steps: 1. Hold the iPAQ pocket PC on its
side with the side grip facing up and the Secure Digital (SD)/Compact Flash (CF)
card slots pointing away from you. Note: Ensure that the side grip is free from
any oils or slippery substances that may prevent proper grasp during this
removal procedure. 2. With your right thumbnail, press firmly and hold the lower
(pointed) end of the side grip. (This will help release the locking tab
underneath the side grip.) Caution: Ensure that no pressure is exerted on the
display panel. Exerting pressure on the display may result in damage to the
display. 3. Place your left thumb on the middle of the side grip (helps to
disengage the four contact tabs underneath the side grip more effectively) and
slide the side grip up about 1/8th inch. 4. Lift off the side grip. You can also
view the video to remove/replace the h2200 Side Grip, please visit the following

Jul 2003 Posts: 22 Quick service! I just received the package today. New grips
and a new battery compartment cover. Is the battery compartment cover causing
folks problems? Anyway, the grips are a "snap" to put in. However, once they
were in, I notice that my Ipaq is a little thinner and can now slip out of my
metal case (Innopocket) when the lid is open. Strange, but I'm still happy!

option... PPC Techs have released a Do-It-Yourself Replacement Cover Kit . The
kit contains detailed, fully illustrated instructions and all the tools &
components needed to replace the side grips. Each kit contains: 1. Torx
screwdriver, size T-6, to remove and install the case/cover screws. 2. 3 longer
replacement screws to mount the side covers. (An extra screw in case one is lost
during install) 3. A left and right cover. It seems a bit pricey to me but they
look good on especially if the ones you had are gone! Attached Images File Type:

the do it yourself kit grips are anodized aluminum, not rubber like the
originals, they are pretty nice looking, and come in other colors (red and blue,
I think). Does anyone have these yet, if so, share with the rest of us. rscanady

I ordered the famous 'replacement grips' from HP... and the package that arrived
contained... grips identical to the old ones, as far as I can tell! Black
plastic, and snap on the same way. This is a 'fix'? HP will go the way of
Compaq, I predict. I'll wait to see how long these last... but I predict I'll
need to order (and pay for) the anodized aluminum clips I saw in an ad. rdpark

Join Date: Jul 2003 Posts: 4 I had replacements from HP and they were better
than the originals but still not great. They never started breaking or falling
off completely, but they did scoot up slightly from putting the PDA in my
holster case so I just got the anodized aluminum ones from PPC techs. Pricey,
yeah, but they will last forever and never come off. And they look a lot better
than the cheezy rubber ones also. I only wish the silver ones had been available
when I ordered mine... __________________ i own a pda Scott W is offline Scott W

View Full Version : Metal Side Grips for the 2215! IPAQ HQ whitelyt
http://www.ipaqhq.com/images/ppctechs-metalsidegrips.jpg22xx Metal Grips Have
you had issues with your rubber grips falling off? If your 2215 is still under
warranty you can get a rubber grip replacement kit from HP. However, word has it
the Pocket PC Techs are soon coming out with metal side grips. There is not a
lot of info as of yet so they could be metal or they could be aluminum. In
either case it would be much sturdier than the rubber grips. The metal grips
look very nice and it could be a big hit when and if Pocket PC Techs releases
them. whitelyt The grips are reported to be anodized aluminum. They will also
come in different colors. The grips should be posted on Pocket PC Techs website
soon for pre-order. xboxlord I don'tsee this being a big seller. Most 2215 users
I've heard have said that they like the grips because they are different from
the unit and they are great grips so the unit doesn't slide out of your hand.
Also, from the picture, the metal "grips" don't look too great. whitelyt I guess
until you have a 2215 and have went through the issue of having the rubber grips
falling apart you wouldn't/couldn't appreciate someone developing something like
this. I have had to get replacement grips for mine in the first 4 months I had
mine. HP was very quick to get me replacement grips. Now one of my grips are
starting to act up and I am constantly pushing down on them for them to stay in
place. When the grips start to wear the beautiful look to the 2215 starts to
diminish. xboxlord But how do we know that these grips won't also fall off or
start getting loose? I'm not saying I know what it is like, I am just saying
those metal ones don't look very comfortable. Maybe HP should release some
colour grips, that would be kinda neat. whitelyt Well we wouldn't know. I am
sure that Pocket PC Techs will make a review available for us to make a judgment
call. tomtrauma I'm with Xbox, let HP make a better mouse trap. I also think
that colors would be a nice bonus. Mine are still there but I do have one side
that keeps creaping up at one end....... whitelyt As far as I'm concerned I
don't care where better grips come from whether it is HP or PPC Techs. HP could
surely make better grips but for as long as the 2215 been on the market I would
highly doubt that HP would ever look at something like that when their minds are
on future products. So what happens now is that if you have a 2215 that goes out
of warranty and you need replacement grips, you will have to buy the package
from HP. Surely if you retire your 2215 then that won't be a problem. But for
some that might use it over an extended period of time continuing to pay for
rubber grips is going out the world backwards IMO. xboxlord I would highly doubt
that HP would ever look at something like that when their minds are on future
products. HP is a very responsible company. I don't think that they only look
forward to see if they can get new products out better, but I know they also
help customers with older products. In October last year, I had a problem with
my old Jornada 565 and it was still under warranty (I loved buying a 3 year
replacement plan) so they sent me a brand new model. In fact, they didn't have
any 565's in stock, so they sent me a 568 because that was all they had (the
only difference is 64MB RAM asopposed to 32MB. The point is that even with old
products, they helped their consumers because they realize service is important.
allklrnoflr I think it's a great idea and hopefully others follow suit and give
us more options. Can't remember which site I was on but someone actually made
wooden replacement grips. Looked real classy. xboxlord If they were wooden grips
with a nice finish like they have in luxury cars, that would be sweet. Or maybe
nice leather grips would look good. Now that I look at the metal grips, it looks
like there is a screw that holds them in. I didn't think this screw was on the
original, was it? V-Man I saw the wooden grips also. Unfortunately, the guy who
made them only made a set for himself and had no plans or intentions of making
any for distribution. They looked great though. I think he used rosewood and
finished them beautifully. Wish I could get a pair like that. If I bookmarked
the site at home, I will edit this post and add the url. V-Man JmE Here is the
link that contains both the PocketPCPassion link and the Brighthand link. :)
http://www.ipaqhq.com/boards/showthread.php?s=&threadid=755 -JmE- allklrnoflr
The one from pocket pc passion look much classier like the woodtrim you see in a
car. The screw on the metal ones looks a little frankenstein, like I said I just
hope this motivates others to come up with things like this. TLC I personally
think that the metal grips look pretty cool! xboxlord I don't personally mind
the look of them, because I love the brushed metal look, however, the grooves
for the fingers look to have sharp edges and different people with different
hands will have difficulty with that. Cheryl I don't think there is a single
product that everyone likes or uses. So that's ok. I think they look sharp, too.
But I also like the original grips and have had no problems with them so I will
probably not change them. allklrnoflr alright I take it back, they just updated
their website these come in three different colors and they look real sharp.
xboxlord I do agree, the black looks very nice, but they haven't removed those
sharp looking edges. whitelyt Edges might look sharp but I highly doubt that it
is. I think that they look very sharp (good) and I like the option of getting
them in different colors. I am wondering if they will be offering discounts
initially for them. whitelyt For those that have not seen the updated page, here
is more info on the grips.... iPAQ 2200 Do-It-Yourself Kits
(http://www.pocketpctechs.com/i2200diykit.asp) Cheryl Ooh..they do look very
nice. But I don't think I want to spend $40 to give my 2215 a new look. whitelyt
Originally posted by Cheryl Ooh..they do look very nice. But I don't think I
want to spend $40 to give my 2215 a new look. Yeah, it would be nice to see a
special introductory offer.... tomtrauma The new colors would really be a nice
additon to a great PPC. The price is a little high as you all stated, I would be
interested if the price were a little lower whitelyt Because of requests by many
customers, PPC Techs have added a silver Side Cover kit to the list! The kits
are expected to start shipping 3/5/2004 or sooner. iPAQ 2200 Do-It-Yourself Kits
(http://www.pocketpctechs.com/i2200diykit.asp) allklrnoflr Lucky to be a 2200
owner right now, I have also read that they are trying to add a flip cover to
fit with the custom grips. No case with protection is great, makes me kind of
miss the flip cover that came with my Clie TG-50 Cheryl That would be nice. The
kids or the dog got ahold of my Sena case *boohoo* so I am in the market for a
new case. A flip would be great! Cheryl Originally posted by whitelyt Because of

Do-It-Yourself Kits (http://www.pocketpctechs.com/i2200diykit.asp) I don't see

just me. I kind of like the blue myself :). vBulletin v3.0.1, Copyright

really been contemplating those grips for awhile now. But gee whiz that price.
$40 for side grips is just too harsh for me to justify, especially with new
devices on the horizon. I think $25 is a much better price. I just received some
new grips from HP and plan on saving them for when my 2210 eventually makes it's
way on eBay. I'm waiting to see if any interesting VGA Pocket PC come out in
June, if there's something interesting my 2210 is gone! Wasn't there some guy
that made wood grips? __________________ Roderick Pommier | Old Post 04-16-2004

Post # Yep - there was one gentleman who made wood grips. Just one set for
himself. It just took too long. The more I look at these, the more I realize
that the price really isn't that bad. The quality is great and everyone
compliments them. *shrug* But if you are looking to upgrade in the near future,
I can certainly understand waiting. But think of it this way: With these grips
on your 22xx series iPAQ, if you were looking to resell (especially on eBay),
you would have a leg up on the competition: a Modded iPAQ. That's good for at
least $50 more than you probably would have gotten originally.

Posts: 21 Post # Tim makes a good point. I haven't seen the grips in person but
it looks like their high quality metal and they seem to look really good
(especially the blue ones, they match the hp logo! ). I agree that they would up
the going price of your 2200 if you auctioned it on eBay. __________________

Search with IceRocket Posted by: KevinCTofel Posted on: Monday, August 02 @
12:48:12 CDT IceRocket.com is another internet search engine in the market,
competing with the likes of Yahoo, Google, AltaVista and others. Engadget ran a
small information piece today describing a truly nice feature that could be
useful for PDA and SmartPhone usage: search by e-mail. Here's how it works
according to IceRocket: "Icerocket.com offers the easiest way to search from
your handheld device. If you are looking to search the web, news, or pictures
IceRocket has a solution for you. All you have to do is send a blank e-mail with
your search term in the subject line and within seconds you will receive a
response with the results you need." The first pic shows how you submit your
search request....just put your search term(s) in the subject line. The second
pic shows the results that are e-mailed back. I did the "vain" thing and sent an
e-mail search of my name....just to see how long it would take to get the
results. I received an e-mail with the first 5 hits within 60 seconds, which I
think is very reasonable. There is also a link to click for additional hits.
Part of me says, "If I'm already on-line to search the web, why not just do the
search via the web?", but another part of me says "Nice feature!". What do you
think, would you use this? Source: Engadget Discuss in the Forums Read More...

A ''Major'' Language Support Pack Posted by: Justin Posted on: Sunday, August 01
@ 21:05:18 CDT "A new Language Support pack for InPad input method has been
released. It includes stroke sets for handwriting recognition for all major
European Languages based on Latin, Cyrillic and Greek alphabets. It also
includes the Thai alphabet. More than 30 languages are now supported. Support
for other world languages is under development. You can use and customize these
strokesets with versions of InPad for PocketPC and TabletPC. Thanks a lot for
users of InPad for their input and advice." Inpad is a interesting way of
writing on your pocket pc and more information can be viewed here about it. They
have released a major language support pack which apparently gives you more than
30 languages! It looks pretty cool and I suggest that you look at it, and it
also is available for Tablet PC. -Justin. Discuss in the Forums Read More...

Posted on: Sunday, August 01 @ 20:55:02 CDT Negotiations between union members
and their employer were at an impasse. The union denied that their workers were
flagrantly abusing the sick-leave provisions set by their contract. One morning
at the bargaining table, the companys cheif negotiator held aloft the morning
edition of the newspaper. "This man," he announced, "called in sick yesterday!"
There on the sports page, was a photo of the supposedly ill employee, who had
just won a local gould tournament with an excellent score. A union negotiator
broke the silence in the room. "Wow!" he said. "Just think of the score he could
have had if he wasn't sick!" Only in Real Life... As a higway patrolman, you
hear many excuses by those caught speeding. Once, the driver ran back to my
patrol unit to tell me someone in his car was sick and that he was taking her to
the hospital. I let the man go, but was suspicious when he declined my offer of
a police escort. I decided to follow him. By the time we reached the emergency
entrance of the local hospital, I was feeling a little folish about not trusting
the man. When I noticed he was having difficulty getting an elderly woman out of
the passenger door, I ran over to offer my assistance. It was then that I
overheard the struggling woman say, "Leave me alone! You told him someone was
sick, so you be the sick one!" That is when I wrote the ticket. -Justin. Discuss

What do you want from Pocket PC Tools? Posted by: Justin Posted on: Sunday,
August 01 @ 20:43:01 CDT PocketPCTools has grown over the last year or so,
giving you up to date news and some laughs along the way, but really, how can we
make our site different to encourage people signing up and reading our posts
more than other sites? We do realize that many sites can be the same with the
same look, same feel, and the same news. We want to customize PPCTools to
accommodate the ever growing diversity of people and their specific needs. This
is were you come in. Design: PocketPCTools looks ok, right? But how can we make
it better? What improvements would you like to see? Many designs look familiar
and how can we make ours more user friendly and more neat and tidy? We would
like to hear some feedback on the design, maybe a colour change or making things
aligned? The front page was made over slightly a while back, mainly with a new
logo and sidebars, but if you do notice, the boarders in black around the tabs
don't match up with the blue colour. These are things that need to be fixed, and
while we do this, what else would you suggest? Reviews: When it comes to
reviews, we really don't have very many. Do you want to see more reviews and
more Running Reviews? If the Running Reviews become popular we can instate those
with more admins participating and then we can incorporate logos and buttons in
that module. What do you say? What items do you want to see reviewed more? Would
you like software or hardware and what type of each? Navigation: The navigation
around Pocket PC Tools has been good, not too many complaints here so far. Is
there any bugs or error messages that you get that we can fix when you go around
the site or are any pictures not working? Is the forum not logging you in
properly or can you not see new posts or posts that have been replied too? If
you have any problems, please tell us! Self improvement will make this site much
more professional, more enjoyable and hopefully more popular. All in all, I do
think that you can expect to see changes within the next month or so, and if you
have any ideas at all please post them in this forum so that we can try to
incorporate them into the design and clean up stage. Thanks, The PocketPCTools

Toshiba/Audiovox The Toshiba e830 appears to be for real! Posted by:
signothefish Posted on: Friday, July 30 @ 17:15:01 CDT jacdoc05 in the Pocket PC
Thoughts forum was doing some research on FCC approval for upcoming Pocket PC
devices, and stumbled across some recent grants. One has the FCC ID of
GKRP5TH6300, which appears to be the HP H6300 and the other has an ID of
GKRPPCE830W. The e800 had an ID of GKRPPCE800W, and was granted on September
19th, 2003. The device with an ID of GKRPPCE830W, which I am assuming to be the
rumored Toshiba e830, had two Digital Transmission System (DTS) devices with
description " Pocket PC With 802.11b and Bluetooth Transmitters " granted on
July 28th, 2004. Plus, the FCC label has the following inscription: " Toshiba
Pocket PC e830 ". In fact, it appears one device will be a Bluetooth version and
the other a Bluetooth/WiFi version. Could this be the elusive e830? I'm willing
to bet so. Discuss in the Forums [6 Replies] Read More... Send to a Friend

official response to WM2003SE Posted by: barry Posted on: Friday, July 30 @
12:48:49 CDT A while ago, we reported that HP was not going to make Windows
Mobile 2003 Second Edition upgrades available to existing iPAQ owners. Needless
to say, many of you were in an uproar about it and a petition to "make" HP offer
this was set up (not by us). We at Pocket PC Tools wanted to know the real
reasons as to why HP is not making this upgrade available, so we asked. This
morning, we got an official response. One quote from the response is as follows:
" Why from time to time, does HP decide not to offer operating system upgrades?
HP reviews and evaluates all Microsoft releases to determine compatibility on
its handheld devices. Not every product that HP introduces can successfully be
upgraded to new or updated Operating Systems. Some of the reasons are ROM size,
hardware limitations, and 3rd party application incompatibility. Some features
that new operating systems and applications contain would require hardware
component changes that are not always feasible in the existing device design
layout." Read the entire FAQ on this in the Read More link . Discuss in the

DIANE'S DISCOVERIES Essential Hardware Reviews from New Products Editor Diane
Dumas Search site Search Encyclopedia of Software and Accessories Browse
Encyclopedia Hardware accessories are an essential part of making the Windows
Mobile experience productive and happy! Whether it’s a case to protect your
investment from the hard knocks of everyday use, earphones that spare you the
agony of a tangled mess, or a TV to catch up on the daily news—they enrich our
user experience. Here’s some of the best hardware I’ve discovered over the past
few months. For more hardware picks you can also read my Bluetooth Fever article
(on page 36) for some Bluetooth connectivity favorites that I’ve found recently.
CF card TV Tuner Watching TV on a Pocket PC is finally a reality! This accessory
adds a TV tuner, an A/V input, and an RF input via a Type I CompactFlash card
interface. Not only can you watch over-the-air and cable TV broadcasts, you can
play videos from an external source such as a VCR, DVD player, or camcorder, in
either landscape or portrait mode. The telescoping antenna folds away, and a
carrying pouch is included. The tuner is powered by 4 AAA alkaline batteries.
It’s available in PAL or NTSC versions, and I’m told by the company that they
are working on a Windows XP driver, which should be available in a month or two,
for use with notebooks and Tablet PCs. TV CF Card turns your Pocket PC into a

http://www.pdapanache.com DRY PAK If you’re in the mood for some hard outdoor
play on the weekend, here’s an excellent solution to protect your Smartphone or
PDA. DRY PAK is a waterproof pouch that will hold most PDAs, GPS units, or cell
phones. The nice thing about it is that you can operate the device while it’s
inside the pouch; even talk and listen through it. It’s made of strong, durable
thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) that is not affected by extreme heat and cold,
it’s watertight down to 60 feet, and it floats. I haven’t actually tested the
“60 feet” claim, but the pouch seems very solid and well made. It comes with an
adjustable neck lanyard and a belt clip. DRY PAK Use With: P/PC, P/PC 2002,
Smartphone, and Windows Mobile 2003 Price: $14.99 URL: http://www.drypakcase.com

was really getting tired of untangling the wires each time I used my headphones,
but I no longer have to worry about that thanks to the retractable cords on
these stereo ear buds from JAVOedge. The cords extend to a maximum of 47 inches
and retract into a small spool when not in use. You have to remember to pull on
both ends at the same time when you’re extending them, or they’ll jam. Other
than that, this accessory works quite well and produces clear sound. It works
with most PDAs that have 3.5 mm stereo headphone jacks. JAVOeBuds eliminate
tangled headphone cords. Use With: P/PC, P/PC 2002, Smartphone, Windows Mobile

PocketPCTechs Anodized Aluminum Grips for iPaq h2200 Series Since PocketPCTechs
announced the new h2200 series replacement grips many users have been asking the
same question: Can these grips be used with an InnoPocket Aluminum Case ? To
answer this question PocketPCTechs sent me a replacement kit. The installation
process is very simple if you follow the instructions provided by PocketTech.
The first thing to do is to remove the old grips. To do that hold the unit
between both hands and apply pressure to the middle and bottom of rubber grip
and push it towards the top of the unit. Once the grips has moved about 1/8"
pull the grip up and remove it from it's original place. Having both grips
removed you will see two screws (one in each side) near to the top, using the
Torx T-06 tool provided by PocketPCTechs remove both screws. The new anodized
aluminum grips are left & right keyed based on the screws hole and cover
extensions, so it's impossible to install the right one in the left size of your
h2200. The installation is simple, insert the bottom tip of the replacement grip
in to the unit and them seat it slowly until the screw hole is properly aligned.
Right side grip. Two longer screws are provided in the kit (really there are 3
screws counting an extra one just in case you lose one) to replace the original
screws. Using the Torx tool insert them. Be sure that you do not over tight.
h2215 with new anodized aluminum grips installed. Even without having finished
the installation I already knew the answer to my question of could I use these
grips with my InnoPocket Case? Inserting the h2200 in the case. h2215 with the
Anodized Aluminum Grips installed and using the InnoPocket Aluminum Case. The
answer is YES. Both accessories can be used together without any problem.
Conclusion : The Anodized Aluminum Grips from PocketPCTech are very well made
and in my opinion is a solution that will last for ever in your h2215. I got a
second pare of rubber grips from HP and they were falling already from my h2215,
this second pare was free because the unit was under warranty but my question is
how long HP will send me free grips? Is there anything I don't like from this
solution, yes, the price. I still think that 40 dollars is more than what any
one would like to pay for this kind of solution even if it's the perfect
solution, and it's the perfect solution, I don't have any doubt about it. Would
I recommend the Anodized Aluminum Grips to h2215 owners? Yes, if you have the
money and you want to put an end of this situation of your rubber grips falling
from your Pocket PC this is the best way to go. Finally I would like to Thanks
Leonard from PocketPCTech for sending me the grips used in this review. PC

Gadgeteer Hands On Review : iPAQ HP2200 Series Clear Case by Julie Strietelmeier
D ate: 01/21/2004 Let us know your comments on this review and read what others
have to say. Product Requirements: Device: HP 2200 series iPAQ Remember when the
coolest thing in the world was a clear replacement shell for your Palm Pilot or
Palm III series PDA? I don't think I've ever seen a clear shell for a Pocket PC,
but for those of you that are into such things, I have something that may
suffice: A clear case for HP2200 series iPAQ from SuntekStore . This clam shell
style case is made from crystal clear durable plastic and is molded perfectly
for the HP2200. The PDA snaps into the bottom half of the case and is held there
by two posts which lock into the two slots on the back side of the PDA. Once
snapped into place, the cover can then close perfectly over the front of the
PDA. Cutouts in the cover exist for the power button, applications buttons and
navigation button. The case is a little too thick to allow for easy button
access though. This is especially true for the small power button cutout, which
is almost impossible to press with your fingertip. The navigation button is the
easiest of all the buttons to use while the cover is closed. Game players that
are interested in this case will probably opt to play with the cover open
instead of closed. Opening the cover is a little tricky. I found that the
easiest way to open it was to place two or three fingers in the large button
cutout area and press down while lifting up with my thumb hooked around the
bottom cover's ledge. When opened, the cover can flip around a full 360 degrees.
It isn't very comfortable to hold it completely folded under the PDA, but having
it hanging behind your hand as your hold it, is a nice way to get it out of your
way. The back half of the case has holes for the speaker and reset switch, while
the top has an open area over the compact flash slot. This allows you to keep an
oversized CF card plugged in while the cover is closed. There is also a cutout
for the earphone jack and stylus. The cutout for the stylus is pretty much
useless though. There is a small plastic lever built into the back of the case
that you can use to pop the stylus up. The problem is that the stylus doesn't
pop up far enough to grab hold of. Not only that, the little lever thingy fell
out the 2nd time I tried to use it. Basically, you'll want to use a separate
stylus with this case. The play through aspect of the Clear Case is convenient
and the style itself is unique. With a price tag of less than $20, you really
can't go too wrong with this case. Just make sure you buy a multi-pen stylus to
use with it. Price: $18.95 Pros: See through, play through Cons: Buttons hard to
press when cover is closed Stylus is not accessible Can's sync/charge with
cradle Let us know your comments on this review and read what others have to
