As with most products from Geeks.com, the HP Jornada 728 Handheld PC came securely packaged and arrived without damage. The package itself has a simple design, without pictures or a list of specifications. This unit is actually a refurbished unit; we’ve had a chance to review a number of products from Geeks that have been refurbished and never had a problem with any of them.

Opening the package, we find the unit securely packaged inside some custom foam inserts. Along with the PC itself, the package comes with a docking cradle, a main and backup battery, a power adapter, a serial port cable, system software, and a detailed instruction manual.

Taking a closer look at the Jornada, we find a slightly large-size unit (size comparable to a Sony PSP slim) with a grey top cover and a black bottom. The Jornada is probably too large to fit in your pocket but definitely would fit in a purse or carry-on case.
