Are there any Pockets PCs that have both built-in WiFi and Bluetooth? If so, are they any good in their other features as well?

My partner wants me to get a Toshiba e805, and I like it, but since I iknow I'll be using Bluetooth, it would be nice to have native Bluetooth instead of it coming from a card. But I want a PPC that is as "acclaimed" as the e805. So, if there is anything out there, let me know. Thanks!

The HP iPAQs 4150, 4350, and 5550 have both WiFi and Bluetooth, but they don't have CF (although the 5550 will accept a CF sleeve).

There are very few units that have CF, SD, WiFi, and BT. Those include the Fujitsu Loox 610 and the Asus A716, although they're not readily available in North America yet.

None of the aforementioned devices have the e805's 480x640 screen, though... on the other hand, the 4xxx iPAQs are amongst the most compact Pocket PCs on the market.

So, does the Toshiba e805 have CF, SD & Wifi? Just not Bluetooth (without a card)?

The e805 does not have Bluetooth built-in, though.
