IPAQ 2215 (2210) vs. IPAQ 4150

Ok, I kind of feel bad posting about IPAQ when this is an Axim site but from what I read so far everyone seems very helpful around here so I thought what the hey ...

I'm a student in college and was looking to get a pocket PC. I first looked at Axim because I have a Dell desktop. After doing some studying, I was thinking an IPAQ looks a little better for what I want to do (or eventually).

Both IPAQs are not too much different and both have Bluetooth which is cool because it looks like that's the direction things are moving to. My problem is that I don't know a whole lot about PDA's (never had one) so I'm confused about how important the CF slot on the 2215 is. The 4150 has an integrated WiFi which I would get some use out of but only a SDIO slot while the 2215 has both a CF and SDIO slot. I know you can also buy a WiFi card to go into one of the slots so if I wanted I could get WiFi that way too. The 4150 is about $50 more I believe.

Any suggestions? Thanks for any help offered!

Note: Shelley, did you end up getting the 2215 (2210)?

If you know you are going to use WiFi, get the 4150. Any savings on the 2215 would be wiped out after buying a card for it. But if WiFi is not that important, two slots are mighty handy. Remember, CF memory is cheaper right now, too.

There are also a larger number of CF Accessories; GPS, cameras, ertc.. There's an SDIO camera now though IIRC. and yeah CF memory is much cheaper
