iPAQ hw6910/hw6915 Appears on HP UK Site
Posted by Darius Wey in "HARDWARE" @ 10:30 AM
HP's second-generation iPAQ Mobile Messenger series has just appeared on their UK portal. Both the hw6910 and hw6915 have an Intel PXA270 416MHz processor, 64MB RAM, 128MB Flash ROM, a miniSD slot, a 3.0" (240 x 240, 64K-colour) square-screen TFT-LCD, Bluetooth 1.2, 802.11b Wi-Fi, quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE support, IrDA, integrated GPS, a 1.3-megapixel PhotoSmart camera (hw6915 only), a backlit keyboard, a 1200mAh Li-Ion battery, and Windows Mobile 5.0.

Now, we play the waiting game and watch for an official price tag and release date. On paper, the hw6900 series seems a lot more powerful than the Treo 700w, but for multiple reasons, I believe the latter will still end up being the more successful device. Your thoughts?
