iPaq 110 and 210 Apparently Cost Money

From rumor to fact, we've watched as HP has revived their iPaq line. The first two units will be coming out in just two days, on October 8th. Featuring Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, identical 624mHz processors and WM6 Pro, the cheaper 110 will run $299 while its older brother the 210 will cost $399.

Of course, with contract, they'll cost you a lot less. Wait. They're just PDA's, or, "phone companions" as the models are called in HP's press release. And there are no contract rebates for "phone companions."

Damn. [HP and HP via engadget]

Revived HP iPAQ 900, 600, 200, 100 Line (Some With 3D Maps, Mountains and Buildings)

Those leaked pics and specs for a new line of HP iPAQs turned out to be spot on, U.S. model numbers aside. Led by the formidably spec'd iPAQ 900 Business Messenger smartphone, the lineup consists of another smartphone (600 Business Navigator, the 900's QWERTY-less little bro), two "classic handhelds," (the 100 and 200, "classic" meaning Wi-Fi, no cellular) and a jazzed-up GPS unit (300 Travel Companion). Press release laying it all out after the jump.

HP iPAQ Photos and Specs Leaked? Rumblings of HP's return to the hand held world are looking more solid with a complete lineup of very legitimate looking iPAQs. We'll run you through it wham-bam-thank-you-ma'm style. Hit the jump and let's do this thing.

HP IPAQ 510 Voice Messenger: A Half-Assed Revival for the Brand

HP's IPAQ brand is back from the dead with this slim phone that looks nothing like the whale-ish IPAQ PDAs of yesteryear. The Windows mobile 6 phone has additions by HP that let it read emails and other text sources, and let you do your best Piccard impressions to open apps ("Computer! Make it SO".) The phone has EDGE data, and WiFi. Laptopmag's Sarah Anderson, got an early look, and had mixed reactions.

The Good:
Battery life of 6.5 hours, narrow. Voice recognition. Skype support (eventually.)
The Bad: Hefty 5.7-ounce weight. 0.7 inches thick. Synthesized voice sounds mumbly. More »

Cingular Rolls Out TeleNav GPS Navigator Service

Along with its shiny new HP iPAQ hw6920 it launched today, Cingular also rolled out its version of the TeleNav GPS navigation service, barking out turn-by-turn directions without requiring you to buy a separate receiver. Yep, these phones have a satellite receiver built-in. More »

Cingular Gives Birth to New iPaq

It took them awhile, but HP finally managed to push that iPaq hw6920 smartphone through Cingular's digital womb. We're psyched to see that the new smartphone will have many flavors of wireless including EDGE, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth. The phone's camera coulda been better (it's only 1-megapixel), but the 3-inch screen should be good for framing shots (and for our failing eyes). Memory is also expandable via a Mini SD slot. You can snatch yours today for $599 clams. More »

HP iPAQ rx5900 Travel Companion Reviewed (Verdict: Best Hybrid Yet)

HP pals up with Tom Tom, and the result is the iPAQ rx5900 Travel Companion ($599), bringing together well-designed hardware with a friendly user interface. Laptop Magazine liked the way it feels like a full-fledged GPS device and a first-rate pocket PC, too, with neither seeming to be an afterthought. More »

HP iPAQ rx4000: Mobile Media and PDA Hybrid is Sexy (For an iPAQ)


HP, we've always loved you for your brains. But we're glad you've gone ahead and made a mobile gadget that doesn't look like its meant for the corporate goon-squad. What we have here is a design-y Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC device, with WiFi and Bluetooth for net-and-more connectivity. Like most full featured Windows Mobile devices, you can use it with VOIP apps like Skype. I didn't sight much more info out in the wild, so I'm not sure about availability. But unless there's a cult of HP brewing up fark'd iPAQs, we doubt this is a fake photo or a false rumor. More »

iPAQ USB Music Dock

Stop the presses, a non-iPod music player dock is on the loose. Designed for the HP iPAQ rw6818/6828, this dock does most everything you'd expect a dock to do, like charge your player and play back your tunes with a set of stereo speakers. Even though it's designed with the iPAQ in mind, a line-in lets you connect other music players as well; if you still own a CD player, you're in luck. More »

HP Wont Include 3G in Smartphones Until 2007

HP vice president Chi-Teik See said HP won't support 3G in its smartphones until at least next year. Despite 3G's comparitively fast 384kbps bandwidth and the numerous 3G handsets already available, Chin-Teik noted that 3G occupies just 3% of the cellphone space, calling it a nascent market. He also mentioned that 3G s subscription and hardware costs are prohibitively high. Because of these market conditions, HP's iPAQ rw6800 and iPAQ hw6900 don't include 3G support. More »

HP Releases iPAQ hw6900 Smartphone

HP introduced its iPAQ hw6900 Mobile Messenger, running Microsoft Windows Mobile 5.0 and claiming to be the first smartphone with four radios: quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE, WiFi, GPS and Bluetooth. Also included is a 1.3 megapixel camera. A key feature of this unit is its ability to play along with Microsoft's Messaging and Security Feature Pack included with Windows Mobile 5.0, which pushes e-mail, calendar, tasks and contacts. For that GPS receiver inside, North Americans will get Microsoft Pocket Streets 2006, while Europeans receive Tom-Tom Navigator 5 and one free city map. HP says the hw6900 will be available in North America this summer, and everywhere else this spring. HP says pricing will vary by region. More »

HP hw6900 Series Leaked

Looks like HP is popping out a new iPaq, the hw6900 with Windows Mobile 5.0, Wi-Fi, and a mini SD slot. It's essentially the hw6515 sans full-sized SD card slot. All we've got so far is some sort of manual for the hw6910. More »

DavesiPaq = MobilityToday

So it looks like the PDA is truly and verily dead. The venerable DavesiPaq, home of all things PDA, is now MobilityToday, which is focusing on old men wearing jackets and other mobile technology. Anyway, it's interesting to see the old guard move on past the buzzwords of yore. More »

HP iPaq rx1950 - The Small One

Lots of handheld news today. The iPaq rx1950 looks like a stunted little thing but it's quite powerful and runs Windows Mobile 5.0. The 3.5-inch TFT screen is another plus but the 300Mhz processor places this firmly in the lower stratum of handheld majesty. Styling, however, is just about perfect and Windows Mobile 5.0 apparently kicks butt. More »

HP iPAQ hx2795 Reviewed (Verdict: Fast)

I am so far out of the PDA loop that it's nice to see that, in a way, I'm not missing much. PDAs are following the same path they've always taken—shadow the laptop market as much as possible and dumb things down a bit for on-the-road apps. Amazingly, however, the hx2795 comes with a 624Mhz processor which is just about as fast as you could please. Built-in WiFi also adds a bit of sass and the design, a far cry from the iPaqs of old, is bordering on minimalist. More »
