The device also offers Bluetooth wireless connectivity to provide Internet access via a compatible mobile phone when you're out of range of a hotspot. The A716 is powered by an Intel XScale PXA255 processor clocked at 400MHz and runs Windows Mobile 2003. It contains 64MB of SDRAM, with 53-55MB available to the user depending on which language you choose (55MB for Western languages; 53MB for Chinese)." __________________ Want to contact me personally?

I was seriously considering the HP 4150 but was discouraged because of the yellow tint issue and the lack of compact flash slot. I am crazy about this one, because first of all it IS the fastest ppc on the market, since it is just the a620 with wifi, etc... and it is the same price, even cheaper than the HP4150 (i found the a716 for $399 US). However, according to reviews it cannot use bluetooth and wifi at the same time. Has this been true for the a620 as well, and will it be a disadvantage for me in any practical way? I just remembered that none of the previous ones had wifi, sorry about that.
