Here's a pic of the 1910 replacement. Enjoy.

hei, is this for serious man?

What kind of 200MHz proc :?: :?: :?:

It is real. This came from an HP roadmap paper that was given to me by one of their reps.

What kind of 200MHz proc

Doesn't say. That picture is all that I was given. I mean, there's more than just *that* part of the picture, but that's the only place where the 2200 is showed.

I hope you did not sign any non-disclosure agreement with HP. Otherwise, you would be in deep trouble if this was true. Since I assume HP wouldn't tell anything without getting a NDA signed, the possibility of above being true should be low.

[Eitel]

Nope. I didn't signed anything.

As for being real, well, you tell me.

NDA´s are not THAT frequently signed, more often then not presentations happen in an atmosphere of trust.

Maybe this H2200 will be an addition to the range rather than replacing the 1910?
The case looks to be different and I like the way that there does not seem to be too much bulk added around the screen.
If true, this is potentially a great PPC. I'm sure HP will have SDIO on this one and hopefully sort out the memory deal as well. Plus of course we know now that we can run the 20mHz chip at 300 mHz.
Embedded BT as well as all this in a package not much bigger than the trusty Vx? Sounds like a winner to me.

Sure... sounds like a winner but remember that HP still wants to clearly separate their high-end device and their low-end device. Hopefull they don't aim this device as their new low-end device and instead aim for a middle-end.

I sometimes wish another manufacterer had come up with the 1910 design, then I'd be more confident that a future device would be more beefy without sacrificing size.

I have learned from another source that the iPaq 2200 will have SD and CF slots built in. Also it will come with the new PPC2003 operating system.

I hope you're right. That kind of unit will also need a much better battery than what's in the 1910 I would think to support both SD and CF. I couldn't imagine them maintaining such tiny form-factor w/ the addition of CF... assuming the 1910 becomes a big hit (which I think it will be), I don't think it would appear intelligent to stop producing 1910-sized units. I also wonder what's coming up for their high-end devices.... continuing without built-in CF support will not help sales when a cheaper unit is available with better media support.

It wont come with such a teeny battery.
Its HP´s answer to the Axim.

if this is really true, then i feel the 3900 series is not a worthy deal!!

[air-turk]

Is there a time-frame for this 2200 series?

I already bought a 1910 (love it by the way) and would have to buy another one soon. (The Wife has already started complaining I buy a new pda every 6 months).

I have heard from someone who has talked with an HP rep that the 2200 series will ship "sometime in summer 2003". The same rep told him about the built-in CF and SD slots and the PPC2003 system.

They'd have to sell it close to the price of the Axim then... I've heard that their profit margins are already slim on their $299 HP1910...

Following are two links to the FCC pages describing the iPaq 2200:

Funny how it reminds me of those *ugly* Dells...
