My beloved IPaq (the first model) finally died. It cetianly was worth what I paid for it, and I miss it. Even after I could no longer sync it, and the battery wouldn't last more than an hour or so, I used it.

But now, it's time to look forward. In May I should have enough cash to buy a new PPC. Oddly enough, that is likely when new models will be out, or about to come out.

I need rumors, folks! The machine I want needs to have BT and Wi Fi. No built in keyboard, please. I would also like a CF slot, as I already have a couple of memory cards, but for the right model I'd get new ones.

The VGA screen thing is nice, and I hope more models have that when I'm looking.

Battery life is also important. I don't need the leader, but I certianly would like something that didn't need to be charged more than once a day.

I know lots about current models, and have my eye on a few. What I'm looking for is any news about models about to come out.

in may, june or july, the new ipaqs will come out. I think its safe to say that a new 5000 series will come out. Vga, wifi, bt, expansion packs, and maybe even a hard drive.

(perhaps the next 2000 series unit will have wifi, bt, and cf)

the future looks bright
