Default iPAQ hw6500 Comparison Shots: My Diety, It Sizes Like A Treo

http://davesipaq.com/news/004814/ip...6500_comparison

"Apparently some more comparison photos appear on the web...This person states the units are quite close in site and shape to the treo and puts a side by side comparison of them.. "



For comparison's sake, I've superimposed the Treo over the hw6500 from the photos on Dave's iPAQ, showing that the hw6500 is slightly taller, and a few centimeters wider than the Treo. Otherwise, it sizes pretty nicely, and is significantly smaller than previous keyboard-laden iPAQs. Now all we need are definite release dates and juicy deals to start appearing!

Holy crap...that thing looks beautiful. I am most definitely going to be getting one. I love how small it is! And it doesn't have the antenna sticking out...I never liked the antenna-ridden devices. :-)

That square screen still bugs me though. But I guess there was no choice if they wanted to make a device that small.

I'm betting that the only applications that will have issues with the square screen are games. And since I hardly ever play games on my PPC, this isn't an issue for me. :-) As long as solitare works, I'll be happy. :mrgreen:

Close but no cigar. If rumors about an imminant WM treo from PalmOne are true, then why would you get the clone whenyou could have the original...

Looking very very good. I just hope HP has a few tricks for the very stylus dependent WM2003SE.

Not really an exclusive as they are billing it on their site considering the link made its way here first and the pictures came from here...
