Anyone been into a Telstra shop lately? I got a little surprise, HP1940 for $199AU and 2210 for $250. For those in the US, thats roughly $140 for the 1940 and $170 for the 2210. Looking around at other Aussie Pocket PC shops your likely to pay almost double anywhere else.

Tis insane, of course at the shop I was at they were well and truly sold out :(

Plenty here in Perth. ;)

And in fact, when I was in Melbourne a month ago, Myer was having a cheap sale with similar prices.

They want to get rid of the older stock so they can focus on the new stuff.
Good prices though.

For sure. :) Although at the price that the h1940 and h2210 is selling for, I'd much rather pick up one of those than pay hundreds of dollars for the rz1715. :clap:

The HP 2210 is better than that new lower end model anyways! All it is missing is 2003SE.

Exactly. And in my opinion, WM2003SE does not make up for half of the features missing in the newer models which are tagged with the same or greater price. The rz1715 is certainly pricier than what the Telstra shop is selling the h2210 for. Get your h2210 while you can!
