Sweet!

I was very hopeful for the H2200 but now I'm not so sure.
1. No CF slot
2. The same 900 mAh battery as the H1900

I can't seem to open the users manual I or III but users manual II mentions the Nevo remote software. That's a good sign at least. It appears that there is also a Bluetooth printer service but no mention of bluetooth headsets :evil:.

it DOES have a CF slot [manual # 3, section 7: Expansion Cards] ...

in the specifications [and most of the manual], there is a typo [it says CD storage, should say CF storage] ... it is very obvious that the manual is still a 'work in progress' [go to page 1-8 in manual#1 .. apparently, 'Bill will give me the rest of this info' .. hahaha]

it is hard to tell if it is type I or type II @ this time. however, i m guessing it is a Type II, but i m NOT 100% sure of that.

*Sigh*.... if only they would put in a much larger capacity battery like the Axim.. :roll:

[Crystal Eitle]

I want one!!!!

NOW!!!!! :microwave:

(any word on how much these are going to cost?)

[delfuhd]

woo! I dont freaking care about the battery, it has a cf slot! sweet, I'm definitely getting this, but I can imagine it'll be over 400 usd.. I hope its affordable to nice lil high school students with crappy jobs :evil:

I don't think I can sell my current ones to get the money, either.. lol ok well time for me to stop whining. The h2200 looks so sleek and sexy, i assume it wont be expandable with past expansion packs tho? I haven't read all the details, but it loks like it won't work...

Hmmmm.... With the timing of this FCC document I'd expect this to be out in a few months and be one of the first PocketPC 2003 models. The (draft) manuals clearly show Pocket PC 2002. Does this mean it won't be PPC 2003 or just that the software and manuals aren't finished? :?

there is not enough info @ this point .. brighthand.com has a lil article on the h2200 also: http://brighthand.com/article/HP_iPA...s_FCC_Approval

and looking @ this pic, the GreatWallB runs on a PXA255 400 Mhz with the A0 core stepping with 64MB ROM & 64MB RAM

The manual says "Intel Cotulla" for processor. I wonder whether Cotulla is just another name for the PXA255?
