Well I noticed that you can add the 1930 and 1940 to your cart, as well as the 5500, but you couldn't add the 2200... so I noticed that when you added them to your cart the URL used an ID to identify what you were adding... and I noticed that all of the above had IDs close to eachother (except the 2200 of course). So I tried ID numbers from 12200-12265 to see if the 2200 was in there somewhere, just with no link :mrgreen: but alas, it appears as if those iPaq's are "surrounded" by service plans... I think by the time I was done I had > $250,000 in my cart from Linux server warranties and service agreements.

Oh well, it was worth a shot, right????

Chances are all new XScale devices will use the PXA255 processor instead of the PXA250, which will have the higher bus speed.

I live in New Zealand, and was talking to the NZ HP mobility product manager last week who said that the 2200 series will be released slightly later here in NZ. He indicated mid to late Q4

someone at brighthand posted the link for ordering the new ipaqs

http://www.davesipaq.com/index.shtml

if you read the details of the 2210 and 1940, you will notice this,
the 2210 battery last up to 12 hr/ charge and 1940 only last upto 8 hrs. How could this be? 2210 use 400mhz xscale and 1940 use samsung 266mhz. Doens't really make sense to me. Do you think the 255 version of 400mhz xcale could make such a different in battery life?

Well, this depends on what Pocket PC 2003 supports in its processing code. The new XScales are not only faster but they are also more efficient and power effective. This is not supported in the current OS (ARM v5 vs. ARM v4.5 [i think]); if PPC OS 03 supports the former, it makes sense because the XScale is more power efficient than the ARM processor.

One thing I noticed when I looked at Dave's description of the iPAQ 5550 was that you no longer got the Cover Pack; instead, they're giving you a holster and belt clip.

It's a pretty safe bet to say that the 5550 at least will have the PXA255.
