Brighthand Has Images Of HP Mobile Messenger
http://www.brighthand.com/article/Pictures_of_iPAQ_Mobile_Messenger_Leaked
Brighthand has obtained some images of the HP Mobile Messenger, also thought to be called the iPAQ hw6500, we discussed yesterday.
A perfect application of a square screened device, something Windows Mobile 2003SE is capable of. With the push email capability from Good Technology, this will be a serious threat to the RIM Blackberry.

I am only hoping that GOOD has upgraded their software alot. It has alot of palm influence. It is obvious from anyone who has used it.
No groups for contacts etc.
Otherwise looks like a good device.

quick get me a napkin....
If this is the next generation 6000 series and HP fixed all the bugs from the 6315, then I can't wait. My 6315 will be a nice additon to my pocket pc museam/graveyard.
Hay chiuahuah!!! Muy Caliente!!!!
:devilboy:
I hope T-Mobile picks this baby up, otherwise Verizon here I come.....

*gasps* Square screen? This is a perfect implementation of the square screen, as it makes a perfect form factor for a cell phone. Blackberry killer? Yes! Maybe even a Treo killer! 8O

After seeing the new deivices, the xda IV and the BenQ, this thing looks like another one of HP's designs of really unattractive pocket pcs. How's about outsourcing the design again HP, you sure are saving any money and passing that savings on to the consumer. Too me, this ppc is an ugly try at the treo 650 design.

This. Is. Not. Helping.
Man, I'm never going to get a PDA Phone at this rate.

Huh. Curious why they'd choose to distribute GoodLink over the Blackberry client. If I understand properly, in order for a device to interface with Good's system, you need to have the Good software installed. Far more companies have BES licenses/installed than Good. Am I missing something? For an HP device, I think it's pretty damn good looking. It's no Apple, but it's a lot better than that beast of a device 6315.

I got sick of waiting and bought a Treo 650. Yes WM is better, but the Treo is already here! I couldn't wait another minute, and I'm happily using the unit all the time. Connectedness is absolutely awesome. I can see that I'll never buy an unconnected pda again. Too bad I just got an x50v my wife now uses for bubblets and solitaire. I love the unit, but it feels naked without a cellular antenna!
