Compaq Aero 1500
Am trying to get back into flying with a glider which had a Compaq Aero 1500. Would like to fly before making any changes to instruments. Somehow this PDA doesn't want to wake up any more. Does anybody still have one of these archaic PDAs lying around, and in working order?

"Amazon has (expensive) replacement batteries still available. https://www.amazon.com/Replacement-C...1538804&sr=8-1 " $80.00?? Ouch! For just a little more you can buy a Quad core Sony Xperia 3 on Ebay and run XCSoar. Makes a great glide computer!

Fully standalone except for a booster battery it will work fine.

Compaq Aero 1500
don't have one of those, but I do have an HP iPAQ hx4700 that has some life left in it, at least on the charger stand. Haven't used it in years, but still have original packaging and all the parts/documentation. Let me know if that's of interest to you, and we can arrange it.
