"Error: unable to save the file"? Cant save pics

Hello,

A little over a week ago i got my iPaq 211. I love it. Just today
though I tried to save a picture from the internet by holding the
stylus on it, and tapping save image. I get "Error: unable to save the
file". On every single picture I try, I cannot save it. I can save the
banner from the home page which is stored locally anyway. I have
plenty of storage space.

I know this is a common problem. I just found it on many other forums
with no solution. Does anyone here have an idea?

Thanks,
Bret

A pretty common problem. Give a try to other, image saving-capable browsers
(Opera Mini / Mobile / NetFront etc.)

Bret,

I have Ipaq 4700 and thinking about replace it with Ipaq 211 - only if
it is considerably faster.
If you don't mind I have few questions:

Where did you buy Ipaq 211?
How much did you pay?
If this is not your first PDA - is it much better then your previous
one?

Thanks,

Zalek

Well I dont think I can be of too much help. This is my first PDA. I
absolutely love it. The resolution is incredible making video playback
very sharp. The speed is pretty good too, but I cant compare it to any
other PDA. Overall though, I give it an A+.

I bought mine off the HP website as soon as it became available. I
paid $450 for it. Worth it so far.
