240x320 16 bit color, standard size for the era. Yes mobipocket works on it and I actually like it better than micro-read (uread or whatever, I don't know where the micro key is and I don't want to look) on this device as I can completely get rid of margins on all sides and it almost seems that there is a whole page to read there.
The big reason for the upgrade for me (from an IPAQ H3635 pocket PC that is really old) and my PALM TUNGSTEN T2 was the wireless internet and better screen (and easily replacable battery). It's kind of fun going out around town and seeing how many unsecured routers are pumping out a free wifi hotspot! The screen is much better than the old pocket pc which was not backlit but front-lit but not much better than the Tungsten.
I have successfully installed a packet sniffer and am now trying to get youtube playing on it. That is supposedly possible.
It was a hundred bucks well spent and I got a case and a couple of memory cards for that same hundred bucks.
I have been able to successfully download books wirelessly to the device (from fictionwise) but I have been kind of dissapointed at how little direct download software is available. I seem to have to use my PC a lot to install programs right now but I would guess that will eventually happen less and less.
If I can ever get my wife into the e-book thing I may give this to her eventually and look for a PPC with a VGA screen next.
