Default HP Announces the iPAQ 1940

http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/ima...623-HP-1940.pdf

Today, HP is also announcing the impending release of the iPAQ 1940 units.



While HP doesn't have the specs up on their press kit page, I've linked our copy of the data sheet. The unit, an evolution of the 1910, has a Samsung 2410 266MHz ARM processor, 64MB of RAM (and apparently most will be actually useable), a 3.5" transflective display, integrated Bluetooth, an SD slot explicitly capable of SDIO (and which will be compatible with a 802.11b SDIO card), and is .5" thick and weighs 4.37 oz. For those of you who don't need the CF of the 2210, this sounds like an ideal unit.

2.5 mm headphone jack?!? Very odd imo.

All 1910 series devices use that. I agree, would have been better to fit a more standard size for simply a headphone.

Anyone knows how that Samsung chip performs?
Can it be overclocked?

I am curious... I would have thought, at least from what I can see from Austrlaia, that built in Bluetooth is less "useful" than inbuilt WiFi.

Just my $0.05

Not from my perspective. I mainly need to be online with my PDA when I'm outside/not-at-home, and then I use GPRS and bluetooth.

Hmmm... looks like I'll be selling my Axim with Socket BT-card soon if this unit is as cool as it sounds ;-)
