I still maintain the last great standalone PPC was the HX2750. Nothing since has come close to that level of performance, and the built in fingerprint scanner was a perfect way to easily lock down a device without having to enter an alphanumeric password on a soft keyboard.
I just don't see any real focus from HP. The devices look nice, but they just seem to be basic spec pda's. We're a long way removed from the days where HP/Compaq used to innovate in this space.
Also I guess my needs have moved on too. When I can pick up an HTC Touch Pro for less than a 210, I'll deal with some of the compromises (slower cpu, smaller screen) to use the more feature packed device (more RAM/ROM, gps, cell radio, best keyboard on the market) and carry one less bulge on my utility belt.
