Jornada 928 Photos
http://www.jennybeauty.it/home/news.asp?displaynews=yes&del=no&id=285
Vincenzo sent me a link to an Itallian site with photos of the HP Jornada 928. It almost looks like they were taken with the HP Pocket Camera off another Jornada...
I'm really looking forward to this device if they make a CDMA version...and give it 64 megs of RAM. The baseline "Pocket PC Phone" units will have 32 megs of RAM according to a news article I read, so hopefully HP and Toshiba will release multiple units with different specs.
I'm curious to know how many of you would leave your cell phones behind if you had a Pocket PC Phone...time to vote! (remember that you don't have to be registered to vote)

Slightly off topic for a second...what better way is there to take pictures of a new Jornada then with the HP Jornada Pocket Camera?!?!
...oh, I see your point, a 3.3 megapixel camera probably would take a better picture :wink:

Looks like the link is dead...
Problems with the javascript linking to the asp page. Best to link to the site: http://www.jennybeauty.it/home/news.asp
and then click on the news story.
You can see the reflection in one of the screens of the 928 and for sure, it was taken with the HP Pocket Camera. This camera does a decent job outdoors, but indoors - terrible.

Uggh, terrible pictures, but cool device! I would leave my cell phone behind for a Pocket PC phone... If I had a cell phone :wink:.
And I agree with you Jason, they NEED to make a Pocket PC Phone with 64MB of ram. I can barely get by on that much now days. Hopefully they will get the idea! 8)

I don't like the idea that my Pocket Pc serves as a phone also. I'd much more prefer the GSM/bluetooth/Pocket PC scenario.
I don't always carry my Pocket PC, because it's too big.
I think Smartphone 2002 will do the trick for me... I don't use Pocket Excel/Word anyway.

oh boy, unfortunately Italian is one of 5 languages I know.
he is writing there that this phone has such features like:
- active cover (I love active covers, I used it in motorola Accompli;
after you open it the display goes ON and you can then take incoming call automatically)
- two processors (??? one for phone and one for PDA???)
and also: DUAL DISPLAY, one small LCD display too!!!
I just wonder WHAT EXACTLY this second display is displaying????
Is it name and number of person who is calling???
Oh boy, the question is only one for me: I take it if it has possibility to PAUSE MP3 PLAYBACK for taking phone call and come back to mp3 after call finished!!!!???
and 32 MB ram is too little of course...

Combined Phones and PDA
I would very much like to have a PDA with cell phone capabilities built in. Mostly for data reasons, but also for the occational call. Utimately I think a Pocket PC with Blue Tooth and an a matching Blue Tooth phone is a better combination. Then you're not locked into a specific manufacturer's phone or digital technology. Two separeate device optimized for two separate tasks with an ability to work together is a better solution than combining and comprimizing both. Just think of the difference in battery requirements for each device. What do you sacrifice? The ability to make a call or use of your PDA.
A quote from long ago...
"What do you get when you combine a PDA and a cell phone? A Brick!"

ooooo, phatty (excuse my slang) question. That is really an interesting thing to think about. What does happen when you have something playing on the speaker and get a call. Also, I wonder what would happen through the headphone when you get a call?

I also do not need my PPC all the time, but I can't be without my phone often. If they could make a PPC as small as a phone then great, but it would get a little hard to write on the screen, etc.
For me a bt phone (cdma 2000), bt enabaled PPC and a NEXTLINK.TO bt earpiece would be heaven.
