HP iPAQ hx2750 Pocket PC Overview Published on HP.com
"Optimal combination of performance, expandability and secure wireless capability to meet any business demand. Featuring the Intel� PXA270 624 MHz high-performance processor and offering 256 MB total memory (128 MB ROM and 128 MB SDRAM) - up to 214 MB user available memory including 93 MB iPAQ File Store. Integrated Biometric fingerprint reader protects key business data by allowing unique fingerprint authentication (or a combination of a PIN and/or fingerprint) to the device. Integrated Wi-Fi (802.11b) enables high-speed wireless access to the Internet, e-mail, and corporate data solutions at the office, from home or at Wi-Fi hotspots. Bluetooth-enabled for simplified data synchronisation, file sharing and printing between personal devices and peripherals."
People were wondering where the 128 MB RAM iPAQ was, and here it is: the iPAQ hz2750. It has the usual WiFi, BT, etc., and a fast 624 Mhz processor. QVGA though, which is a bit odd for a high end unit. The biometric fingerprint scanner is back, which is cool. It mentions a CF modem, so it must have a CF slot - but when it talks about memory expansion, it only mentions SD. A little odd...and I have to say that I don't like the way it looks. Hopefully it will be better looking in person!

Too bad HP isn't giving consumers everything new and liked in their PPC's.. The 4700 is close, but the price is just too blah for me...
256 meg? when it says 214 avalable, then an extra 93 meg File Store, does that mean the 256 and 93? so it would be more than 256 meg?

Would have to see its price compared to Dell's X3i. Fingerprint feature is something I can live without but extra memory is nice to have although I can live without it for the time being. Why didn't HP include these features on their high-end (and expensive) unit baffles me.

I like some of the features of this thing, but I wouldn't buy it -- I "really" don't like the way it looks at all. As mentioned above, I hope it looks better "in person"... The Dell X50v is much more impressive IMHO...

128 MB ROM + 128 MB RAM...but not 100% of it is usable.

Indeed, it makes NO sense. The 4700 is high-end in EVERY way except for the 64 MB of RAM...and considering how much RAM is needed to play back big VGA video files, 64 MB of RAM just isn't enough. :-(

This thing has an identity crisis....
QVGA...low end machine?
Nope it's got a lot of ram -- multimedia machine?
Nope...it's got a biometric scanner and game-unfriendly buttons, as well as no camera.
So...business machine? Nope, no VGA.

The same reason the 4700 only has 64MB of memory?
