iPaq 210 finally ships, gets reviewed {Engadget}
Feb 18th 2008 9:37PM I suggest you check the math again. The iPaq has a street price of $390, plus $110 for 32 GB of memory. That's as compared to the street price of $500 for the 32 GB iPod Touch. In exchange, the iPaq has a better screen, and uncompromised software.
Nokia Siemens completes LTE field trial, 173Mbps worth of success {Engadget Mobile}
Dec 28th 2007 6:45PM Those 100-plus meg speeds were only a few hundred meters from the base station. Not a kilometer.
T-Mobile's 3G portfolio gains momentum, Samsung t819 next {Engadget Mobile}
Dec 14th 2007 12:01AM AT&T has sole rights to all iPhones sold in the US, both the current and any further models, for five years. There's no way that there will be an iPhone compatible with T-Mobile 3G.
Verizon updates T&Cs to further redefine "unlimited" data usage {Engadget Mobile}

Verizon updates T&Cs to further redefine "unlimited" data usage {Engadget Mobile}
Nov 4th 2007 4:11PM It sounds like a lot, but it's actually only around 160 MB per day. That's a lot of email, but not that much if you start using advanced applications, like large streaming video. For instance, a Slingbox connection at 400 Kbits eats 180 MB per hour. At one megabit, it's 450 MB per hour. Also, some websites can reach impressively large sizes, as can Word documents, attachments, and software updates.
5GB is certainly enough for the large majority of users, those who don't need video or a replacement to a WiFi connection, but it's still not "unlimited" no matter how Verizon tries to bribe the dictionary people.
HP's iPAQ 110 and 210 delayed? {Engadget}
Oct 22nd 2007 7:30PM Lew, you're mistaken. These units were never priced at $199 and $299. They were originally reported as $299 and $449, though the latter was later marked at $399.

Oct 14th 2007 4:27PM If you seriously believe that a 4" VGA LCD with touchscreen can be gotten for $12, then you're resistant enough to reality that nothing I can say is going to help, other than to note that your estimate is probably 6-7 times too low, even in large bulk. Try actually pricing out the parts. Otherwise, I don't have time to waste playing with you.

Oct 7th 2007 10:27PM Carlos, see my reply upthread for an explanation of why you're wrong.

Oct 7th 2007 10:21PM Carlos, you're quite mistaken. The iPaq is only two ounces heavier than the iPod Touch. The iPaq does have 802.11g, and sports twice the battery capacity of the Touch for much longer life. Also, unlike the Touch, it supports removable and expandable memory, up to 32 GB right now and 64 GB soon; Bluetooth headphones; a larger and higher resolution screen; spare and extended batteries for even more runtime; third-party software; and superior audio and video format support.
In short, the only things the iPod Touch has on it is the Apple interface and the Touch's thickness. As for third-party apps on the Touch, Apple seems intent on breaking these.
