Looking for PDA with USB host [Archive]

I am searching for the following:

PDA (no phone)
descent size touch screen (3.5" +)
Windows Mobile 6 (latest)
USB Host (integral, not CompactFlash card)

I searched here for this, and found a few posts, but too many get off on tangents. I did see someone mention the HP 210 has USB host, but I do not see it in the specs on their site.

Thanks.

Thanks.There's a special cable required for the HP iPaq 210. Some more details (including at least one user's experiences with it) can be found here (http://www.mobilitysite.com/boards/ipaq-200-series-ipaq-210/227804-fb112aa-ac3-usb-host-cable-found.html).

Unfortunately, someone else also posted here that HP is not providing upgrades for MW6 (to MW61.), which my client needs/requires.

Then it looks like your only option would be the HTC Advantage - though that might be more than you're looking for.

Yes, it is. I have opted to tell my client to get the 210 just so we can get development started, and we'll deal with WM6.1 later.
