Possible iPAQ 5450 Battery Problem?
Posted by Jason Dunn in "THOUGHT" @ 11:54 AM
I received a message today from an anonymous reader who had an interesting experience when ordering a 5450 from HP:
"After resolving some online ordering issues (HP's website doesn't like suite #'s in the address) my order was finally cleared today. However, the 5450 is on backorder. One of the order status clerks indicated HP suspended shipments of the 5450 so they could resolve a battery issue. The clerk had no further information, although he did say his system indicated shipments would resume the first week in January. I'll let you know if I hear more. I'm anxiously awaiting the new 5450!"
I wonder what the battery issue is? I have no firm information on this, so please treat this as a completely unsubstantiated rumour.
