HP's first attempt at a Windows Mobile Smartphone has the best of intentions, but the not so best of specs. Regardless, there seems to be a little buzz going around on this device, with reviews and unboxings pictures appearing across the internet. Personally, I'm not too impressed with this device, as you may have already heard me say. Take the voice software and slap that on my BlackJack and I would buy it in an instant. In case you haven't had your fill on this device, check out the links below. Hopefully there isn't much of that 15 minutes left for this device.

Considering the cutting-edge technology that many companies sweep under the rug because it doesn't align with consumer interests, it baffles me how this product made it to market. It's a big phone with a tiny low-res screen. What good is wi-fi on a 176x220 screen?

In addition to what onlydarksets said, why is anyone giving this phone the slightest attention? Because it's HP? That's pathetic. As it stands today, nearly every US carrier has better WM Smartphones than this outdated unit.
