IPaq accessories make using your IPaq handheld computer easier than ever. First of all, you need a carrying case, and they aren't not just for nerds anymore, you can strap a belt case on and carry your handheld into meetings, to your home office, or out to the field to collect data or take notes. Save your breast pocket for your pocket protector and get the right tool for the right job.

Some of the most important IPaq accessories are for power. Like any handheld computer, they use batteries--sometimes quicker than you'd expect. Even though battery life has been extended in the past few years, batteries still die. Battery packs, auto power adaptors, and AC adaptors keep your IPaq powered up and ready to go.

Other IPaq Accessories

A little gadget here and there can let you get even more use from your handheld. A keyboard, for example, lets you enter data or notes faster than with a stylus, and a foldable keyboard is even cooler; mine is the envy of everyone who sees it. Another cool plug-in is a GPS (Global Positioning System) receiver--you'll never get lost again.

While these IPaq accessories get more function out of your computer, they don't protect it. The best accessory you can get is protection: crushproof and waterproof cases keep your handheld safe whether it's in the field or in the filing cabinet. Don't trust your co-workers or Mother Nature; a precious device will always find a way to fall or accidentally get pushed from its desk.
