Actually, there has been a lot of discussion about the hw6900 series already. See these threads:

Unfortunately, the release date has been pushed to Summer 2006, so it's a long wait from now until then.

I have been using a 6315 for some time and I'm currently testing the 6515, but other than the GPS I don't like it as much as the 6315, the 6900 seems similar to the 6515 but with OS5 and WiFi. I'm going to look at something other than HP, any suggestions?

I assume you're after one of the newer Phone Edition devices with Windows Mobile 5.0, and one that includes a thumb-board? If so, you have a few options: Palm Treo 700w (from Verizon), Fujitsu-Siemens Pocket LOOX T810 or T830 (will be available in Europe later this year), i-mate K-JAM (or other HTC Wizard variant), Sprint PPC-6700 (also known as the HTC Apache), and i-mate JASJAR (HTC Universal; great hardware, though a little big).

8O Have been looking for all of these, everyting from Sprint does not work if you travel outside the US (e.g. Europe, fare East) or does not have GPS. The next best is the Fujutsu Siemens but misses the 850 radio (has UMST instead) needed in the US for GSM. I could not find a combination with all these gadgets except the HP 6915. There are great tools but I want not compromise more as I have too.
