eCost.com is selling the HP iPAQ h6315 for a shopping cart special of $545.00 only. We do not see any mention of needing to sign up for any contract to obtain this price, so that’s very good news for retailers and users of cellular equipment in the US.
Noted are 2 MIRs from eCost/Epson with a [...]

‘Tis the season to be jolly for new gadget launches, awright … Only this year, it’s ever more exciting that the years gone by. The Fujitsu-Siemens Pocket LOOX 700 series, Asus A730, Toshiba e830, HP iPAQ hx2000 series … and now the Tungsten T5 from palmOne and Axim X50 series from Dell. Woohoo!
We like how [...]

All we did was take a Friday off, and suddenly we have sightings and rumors of not one, but 3 new Smartphones due out before the year’s out.
Over at Smartphone Thoughts, we read that a Qtek 8020 manufactured by HTC has been spotted in another website. As mentioned by in the article, it does look [...]

Too amazing not to share: Smartphone Thoughts shares with us an amazing deal for a PQI 1GB Secure Digital card for only $103.00!

It’s limited to 10 pieces per customer, so don’t you folks be thinking funny stuff! We do wonder though how is it that Newegg’s pricing this so low. PQI is quite a popular [...]

According to HP’s EOL timeline, the iPAQ h2210/2215 will be discontinued by 31 December 2005. That leaves buyers quite a bit of time to grab this very popular iPAQ at very good prices - before its due replacement the iPAQ hx2000 Series (3 versions) comes online for sale November 2004 with expected prices between $500.00 [...]

The extremely slim and lightweight Toshiba e400 Windows Mobile 2003 powered handheld is now going for only $174.99 at TigerDirect after its exclusive $25 MIR; expires 31 August 2004 - the best price we have found anywhere on the Net.

The HP iPAQ h6315.

The now-available-at-retail h6315 ($599.99 RRP) under-performs so badly on Spb Benchmark Index tests by Mobile Gadget News, it’s outright scary. But here’s the irony of it all: Less than 24 hours after the test were performed, the reviewer reported back that it just works fine and dandy; running the h6315 with loaded [...]

We found an interesting thread in HowardForums: Forum member andresalazar was commenting that he’s trying to get the HTC Typhoon (also popularly known as the Orange SPV C500) Smartphone for his company deployment, and has been in contact with i-mate in the US.

One of the things about the gadget-driven industry is that manufacturers can never be too early in releasing it products.
We cannot recall exactly when is it that Motorola faded from the mobile phone races - probably right after they released and piggy-backed (for way too long) on the popularity of its flip phones back in [...]

Here’s a good read; we liked the part where the reviewer finds the iPAQ rz3715’s battery life beyond expectations for a Bluetooth and WiFi equipped handheld. We don’t know what HP did to extend its battery performance, but guess that it has plenty to do with the Samsung processor the rz3715 has buzzing under the [...]
