Rumour: HP iPAQ hw6800?
Posted by Darius Wey in "NEWS" @ 09:30 AM
"I happened to be at HP today and got a chance to see, hold and play with the upcoming iPAQ 6800 (name to be finalised). I hadn't read anything about it so thought I would send you a note. It is in essence an O2 Atom but with HP firmware and in a silver case with a 6500 style plastic fold back screen guard. It has: Windows Mobile 5, tri-band GSM with EDGE, FM radio, 2.0MP camera, Bluetooth (with A2DP & AVRCP support), iRDA, 802.11b & Mini-USB 1.1 port. Memory: FlashROM 128MB, RAM 64MB. This is a real product and from what I hear is due for release in April '06."
Mr. Anonymous at Mobility Today claims to have seen HP's version of the O2 Xda Atom. According to him/her, it's been tagged the iPAQ hw6800. Between the two, specs are essentially the same; even tri-band support stands. It was previously reported that the device would feature quad-band support. Do take it all with a grain of salt. We'll endeavour to get you finalised specs in the near future.
