Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
Too bad, it's not out in the states. It looks pretty rugged.
suck on that USA!
Rumor is its because of the hole Qualcom thing.
"We didn't want your stupid iPAQ anyway."
...Yes we do!!
"That's fine, though, HP, whatever. We didn't want your stupid iPAQ anyway."
ummmm....I did
I got one word for ya'...
eBay...
Still, its a loss of a cool gadget. I'd wish it was here just for competition sake.
i think they were afraid that if released in the us that engadget would call it an iphone clone and give it a horrible review because it doesn't have stupid fruit all over it.
put a qwerty on it and call me.
its called the 910.....

Not its not, the 910 is a smartphone while this one is a Mobile Phone, so a querty who still be very welcome.
@Yannick: no, they're both smartphones - they're running the same OS on the same processor and have the same connectivity.
The only difference is the keyboard and last I checked, that wasn't what determined a smartphone's credentials...
I like the bigger screen and that neat scroll wheel thing.
Will probably be available in CannuckLand within 10 years
I blame Apple, and hear me out on this one before you flame:
HP probably canceled because the market right now is over-saturated with smart phones, due to everyone's attempt to counter the iPhone.
AT&T already has the iPhone, so they will not provide anything that would compete with it's coolness, because they want people to buy it, plus they already have the Tilt.
Verizon has the Voyager to counter the iPhone, and the also have Samsung i760
Sprint Just got the HTC touch to counter the iPhone, and they also have the mogul.
T-mobile just got the Shadow to counter the iPhone, they also have the wing, and who can forget the infamous Paris Hilton sidekick.
"That's fine, though, HP, whatever. We didn't want your stupid iPAQ anyway."
haha... someone's jealous...
If the USA returns to colonial status under the crown of England, will we get it then?
maybe, if you replace those monkeys with stamps glued to their hands at the US patent office with some real intelligent people ;)

Dam I want one and this is much better than the Touch, Mogul, or most things out there because.. the processor !!
Bloody Fast processor !!!!
Yay i can buy one at last keke
Well, if this thing's build quality is anything like the HP iPAQ 510 that's being sold at the local Staples, I'm glad they're not selling it. I was excited when I heard Staples was carrying the iPAQ 510, unlocked and out the door for $$399 CDN, (it's now $299) that I rushed to the store to check it out. When I picked it up I knew right away that I didn't want one.
I'll have to agree with Engadget on this one... I didn't want it anyway.
Hahaha, at almost $800. HP can keep their stupid iPaq. That's rediculous.
