Many moons ago, I owned an #HP #95LX. Now I finally own one again. ๐ Probably way overpaid for it, but that stuff isn't getting cheaper anytime soon anyway.
That moment when I bought a NOS NEC MobilePro 900 WinCE Handheld PC off eBay due to unfulfilled childhood/teenage desire-fueled nostalgia.

Amazingly, I get at least 4 hours of runtime off the never-before-used LiIon pack. I say "at least" because I haven't actually tried to use it longer on battery yet.
I even got it connected to WiFi with an old Prism2.5 card. Too cool.

Oh, and I have an insane JDM Sharp HPC coming soon.
The HP LX family of #palmtops was far from the first to run DOS, though - the DIP Pocket PC (aka the #Atari Portfolio), the Poqet PC, and some others come to mind - but I'd argue that it was the best thought-out of them.
Most DOS palmtops were, at their heart, DOS machines first - you usually got a bare minimum of PDA functionality in the form of a TSR, but they expected you to run DOS applications to actually do anything.
