"HP’s new handhelds represent a pocketful of power and connectivity, with something for everyone. Both the h4150 and the h4350 comfortably surpass expectations. Both the h4150 and h4350 ship with 64MB of memory (55MB of which is available to the user), employ the same Intel XScale PXA255 processor running at 400 MHz, and — unlike competitors such as the Toshiba e800 — deliver 802.11b Wi-Fi and Bluetooth."

Our very own Anthony Caruana is branching out and writing reviews for a magazine in Australia. In this case, his article concerns the two 4000 series iPAQs. Way to go Anthony! :way to go:

Wow. Dunno where they got that price. Standard cost for a 4155 is $450, but newegg beats that by $50:

Also, this is HP's recommended retail price. The street price is considerably lower. However, the increased exchange rate for Aussies isn't being seen in dropping prices for tech products yet.
