Why the 928 failed is difficult to fathom since its specifications abounded with glittering technological marvels and the level of its engineering was so superior to most of its contemporaries that it had few legitimate rivals.
Fortunately for the 928, it is now finally being allowed to break free of all the undeserved labels that were applied to it so many years ago and in, some circles, is even becoming somewhat begrudgingly recognized as a true classic.

When people look at you when you’re driving a 928, there seems to be an assumption in their eyes that you’re having a wonderful time.

Once the 928 has been held in the hand other features start to be enjoyed, the rubberised surround at the sides and base (this avoids the slippery grip problem encountered with the naked iPAQ, XDA and the LOOX) give a comfortable grip and the thumb sits naturally on the up and down buttons.
The 928 is fitted with an internal battery (carrying 50% of the charge of the external battery) which serves to protect you against data loss in the event of the external battery running low.

 HP Jornada 928 Wireless Digital Assistant - Review : Handhelds - CNET Asia
Hewlett-Packard’s Jornada 928 was well into development before the Compaq merger, and will retain its HP design and badge, although it may be the last handheld to do so.
The Jornada 928 will be available standalone or bundled with a small CompactFlash-interfaced digital camera--the camera’s drivers are preinstalled in the ROM of every device.
The device itself is also on the large side: in direct side-by side comparison with O2’s xda, the 928 WDA is slightly wider and considerably taller--around 10mm is added by the second phone-only display.

 928 FAQ
If your 928 has the Bosch Hammer connector (next to the passenger seat), whenever the battery is disconnected the Electronic Idle Control in the LH computer may need to be re-adapted.
Check the condition of the bolt or wingnut at the point where the battery ground lead is attached to the car and if it shows signs of rust clean it up and apply battery terminal protector (usually supplied in aerosol cans).
You can now be confident that your battery is safe and secure and that your 928 will have been unaffected by the battery change.

 Meade - #928 45º 1.25" Erect Image Diagonal - Model Number: ME-07217 - $42.95
While this is fine for the planets, the moon, or even the Sun (with the proper filter!), most people would rather see earthly objects in their correct orientation.
The #928 Diagonal Prism (smaller of the two diagonals in the photo) accomplishes this image correction and, at the same time, places the eyepiece at a convenient 45-degree viewing angle.
Use the #928 with the 1.25" Eyepiece-Holder (07182) for Schmidt-Cassegrains or Maksutov-Cassegrains (standard on many telescopes), place in the #1209 Microfocuser's 1.25" adapter on LX200GPS and GPS-SMT telescopes, or slide directly into the 1.25" focuser on refracting telescopes.

The 928 clutch being of a hydraulic design has no "adjustment" the fluid enters the system as needed to maintain the relationship from clutch master cylinder to slave cylinder.
In addition, there is a plastic cup between the clutch throwout bearing arm and the ball stud that supports it on the bellhousing that wears out and causes a rattling noise that goes away when you press the plutch pedal.
