Casio CASSIOPEIA IT-2000D Manual de usuario descargar pdf (Pagina 3)

For example, you can install a Mobile

Video Player that enables you to play

Casio-format movies on the Cassiopeia E-

100. You can also install the Mobile Vid-

eo Desktop Converter to convert .mpeg,

.avi, and other file formats to the Casio

movie format. Are you getting this? With

the Mobile Video Player running on your

Cassiopeia E-100, you can watch movies

on a computer you hold in one hand.

I also tested the digital camera, which

is available separately for U.S. $299.

The digital camera is about the size of

my index finger. You slip this attach-

ment into the CompactFlash slot and,

using the rotating lens in the middle of

this silver spy camera, take either still

shots or video.

Using the software that ships with

the camera, you can then store the still

shots in a digital photo album on your

Cassiopeia E-100. You can also convert

these shots to .jpg files and either store

these files on your PC or attach them to

e-mail messages.

Something To Think About

Between the color display and fun

extra features (including a cursor pad,

which I never used), the Cassiopeia E-

100 was not surprisingly the heaviest of

all of the palm-sized products I tested.

The Cassiopeia E-100 fits into its leather

case like a glove but is quite bulky—not

something I’d want to carry around in

my pocket, although it would fit easily

into a purse or briefcase. (Unfortunately,

I carry neither.)

The Cassiopeia E-100 is also the on-

ly Windows CE product I tested with

the power button on the left side of the

product. I found this location surpris-

ingly less convenient than having the

power button in the front, as other

handhelds have. Also, don’t expect a

lotof clear help from the manual,

which leaves a little to be desired.

COMPAQ AERO 1530: WHO WOULD

WANT IT?

The Compaq Aero 1530 will suit any-

one who finds a color display an unneces-

sary luxury but who insists on a Windows

CE product that’s small and light.

Something To Talk About

The Aero 1530 is the smallest and

lightest of the Windows CE products I

tested and is the only one that I’d be

willing to carry in my pocket. The Com-

paq Aero is as long as the other Win-

dows CE products (5.1 inches) but half

the depth (only .49 inches compared to

the HP Jornada 430se’s .9 inches).

Granted, the Aero 1530 doesn’t have

the color display that the other Win-

dows CE products I tested have, but its

16-color gray-scale is the most crisp of

all the gray-scale handhelds I tested.

(The others have only 2-color gray-scale

displays.) Lack of color extends the Aero

1530’s battery life, which at up to 14

hours is longer than the battery life of

any other Windows CE product I tested.

Something To Think About

The Aero 1530 is noticeably slower

than the Cassiopeia E-100 and Jornada

430se. The Aero 1530 has only a 70 MHz

CPU compared to the Cassiopeia E-100,

which has a 131 MHz CPU, and the Jor-

nada 430se, which has a 133 MHz CPU.

HP JORNADA 430SE PALM-SIZE PC:

WHO WOULD WANT IT?

Anyone who wants a Windows CE

product, demands color, and likes a lot

of extra software will find the HP Jor-

nada 430se Palm-Size PC ideally suits

his or her needs.

Something To Talk About

The Jornada 430se has all of the fea-

tures other Windows CE products have

plus a few extras, including a promo-

tional pack for the James Bond movie.

This pack includes earphones, a key

chain, coupons for three James Bond

movies, and a carrying case. The carry-

ing case has a soft plastic screen cover

and openings for the CompactFlash

slot, ports, and external buttons so that,

theoretically, you never need to remove

the cover.

Unlike the other Windows CE prod-

ucts I tested, the Jornada 430se does not

have external buttons for launching ap-

plications. Instead, like Palm OS products,

the Jornada 430se has on-screen buttons.

By default, these on-screen buttons launch

the Contacts, Calendar, Tasks, and Land-

Ware OmniSolve applications.

OmniSolve is a financial problem solv-

er that you can use to calculate loan pay-

ments and currency conversions, among

other things. In addition to OmniSolve,

the Jornada 430se ships with more soft-

ware—approximately U.S. $150 worth—

than any of the other handhelds I tested.

Among my favorite additions was Utopia-

soft Hum 1.61, which enables you to listen

to any music in MP3 format (and the mus-

ic sounds pretty good).

Something To Think About

As with other Windows CE prod-

ucts, the Jornada 430se has limited

battery life. Depending upon how ex-

tensively you use the Jornada 430se

while traveling, you may need to re-

charge it while you’re traveling. Fortun-

ately, the Jornada 430se—like other

Windows CE products—has an AC

adapter that plugs directly into the

product. Unfortunately, this adapter has

three parts: a cable from the electrical

outlet to the AC adapter, the AC

adapter, and then another cable from

the AC adapter to the 430se. This

three-part design is not terribly con-

venient. Imagine arriving somewhere,

getting the flashing signal that the
