Default iPAQ 4350?

http://www.pocketpcitalia.com/preview_hp_4350.asp

Pocket PC Italia has specs and a diagram of what might be a new iPAQ. Obviously, we have no confirmation -- but it certainly looks interesting!



The other specs seem fairly similar to the 2215, except that the unit is rumored to have both WiFi and Bluetooth, and a much larger battery (1560mAh, larger than any other previous iPAQ). And finally, is it me, or does this diagram look a little like the Treo 600?

Looks spiffy, but I was never a fan of typing on a "thumb board." Guess I'm just too used to a normal keyboard setting

I too thought I could never really "get into" a thumbboard....until I tried out a sidekick for a few weeks. Man, once you got the feel for the keyboard, typing fairly long emails, posts and IM sessions was much easier. Still, I dont mind having only a SIP, keeps the size of the device down.

Does it look like the Treo? Sure, not that the Treo's keyboard location and design is anything but obvious. So, i'm not sure the iPaq design team is really stealing much in terms of design-ideas.

Anyway, nothin' like stealing a good idea. That's progress.

And, this unit (with a built in keyboard) will well be the most popular iPaq sold, when it/if is released. Just one more step closer to burying the Palm-esque species to the depths that they belong.

Default Why so long???

Hi,

Why do all PocketPCs with a keyboard need to be so long?

Here's what I'd like to see...
