Classic Tech: Compaq iPAQ H3600 in 2020

The late 1990s/early 2000s were an interesting time for technology. We slowly transitioned away from bulky laptops, and cell phones were paving the way to their current ubiquity. Eventually, Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) and cell phones merged to give us the devices we keep in our pockets, that essentially give us access to all of humanity's collective knowledge.

In this video, I take a look at Compaq's (HP) iPAQ 3600 series, which was their first color iPAQ, running Pocket PC 2002, an earlier version of Windows Mobile that we saw on phones such as the Sprint PPC 6700, and the HTC Mogul. While it's no Palm Pilot, I never personally owned one, so this was my first foray into the PDA realm.

The video is an exercise in patience as this device is on its last legs and requires me to apply pressure to parts of the screen for it to display normally. I hope to find some more old tech that I personally used and still have in storage as it's pretty fun to uncover relics of the past, without which we couldn't be where we are today!
