Though I'm not a fan of changing flash formats I'd say if miniSD performs like SD and consumes less power (I assume from the size that it uses less) then I'd make the switch (of course buying a MPx 220 with miniSD has helped me appreciate miniSD more)... I might start selling my SD cards and get a miniSD equivalent (since an adapter comes with purchase I can use it in my SD devices and miniSD devices).

Still undecided if I'd pick the hw67xx over the HTC Wiz though... waiting for those reviews... :wink: hehehe

Not bothered about 240x240. Convenient device for me.

Not really. Flash memory's power consumption is already negligible, and a decrease in size isn't likely to bring much if any decrease in power consumption. Even if it did, the change would probably be on the order of a minute or two of extra battery life per charge.

I've seen many articles relating to the Windows Mobile 2005 and the new mobile messenger.
Doesnt Windows Mobile 2005 use softkeys which the mobile messenger is lacking? Also would HP really want to put Windows Mobile 2005 on a machine whith an almost retired processor speed?

I think The mobile messenger is amazing but its lacking in so many areas.

The Pocket PC still has a touch screen, so a softkey layout on a device which lacks dedicated hardware softkeys is still possible - because (a) the left and right softkeys can still be mapped to existing buttons, and (b) you can still tap on the left and right softkeys on the screen. Take the X50/X50v for example - it will still be receiving Windows Mobile 5.0 despite it lacking hardware softkeys.

I don't see why not. Windows Mobile 5.0's requirements aren't composed of a whiz-bang processor. Upcoming Windows Mobile 5.0-ready devices will have processors starting from as low as 200MHz. What the hw6515/hw6715 has now will be able to handle the job, IMO.

It was previously given the Q2, 2006 release date, though more specific details have since surfaced - so, it's now June, 2006.
