iPAQ h6315 To Go On Sale August 26th?
Mobile Gadget News has a brief blurb about when the 6315 might actually be available from T-Mobile:
"You want a date? Here you go, right from HP Shopping: 'T-Mobile is the exclusive service provider for the HP iPAQ h6315. Service plans and coverage information will be available on August 26, 2004.'"
Sounds to me like the 6315 will be the earliest of the next-generation Pocket PC Phones to hit the market. That said, even August 26 sounds like a long time away.

Apparently the lack of responses on this topic shows that we who want the h6315 know when it is coming out, and this is old news to us!

Possibly, and it wasn't a huge piece of news, although I posted it because it's a slow news day and for the lurkers' sake.

I think the big question is this... T-Mobile's website has a sign up form so current customers can get one of these before the official release date. Does anyone know when T-Mobile's going to sell them to their customers?

I submitted the presale signup form to the "Submit News" link about 1 1/2 weeks ago when I learned of it, and never heard back. The link is www.getmoreconnected.com if anyone wants to sign up to be able to "buy it early" (Supposedly, hopefully, before Aug 26)

Ah... I so very nearly had some 'bigger' news for you... but that will have to wait *slightly* longer it seems... :wink:
So - is anyone really that excited by th h63xx now? It does seem that, now we know it won't get WM2003 SE, the shine has gone from it...
The XDA III looks like the new PE hope now...

Uhm. I am not quite sure that 6315 is 'next generation'. The processor is not too impressive, non VGA, only 64+64 memory ...
'next generation' PPCPE should have at least 624 mhz (adjustable according to the processor load to conserve power), VGA, 128+128 memory, CF+SD slot .or. dual SD slot.

Personally, I don't care about the processor / memory on it. I have had my fill of "oversees" phones in the US - can't get support, can't get service, can't get accessories. I'd rather have a phone here I can have supported & warrentied, and sacrifice speed.

I guess I was looking more for the term of "next batch". Besides, it is the first integrated WiFi+GPRS Pocket PC. There's a few right around the corner, but they seem to be poised to make it to market first.
