Adama, I understand you 'review' for "Brighthand", but there are other sites worth visiting. The one that quoted the prices is; http://www.infoworld.com/article/07/09/05/Ipaqs_1.html.

Sorry you feel this is incorrect, but I did read this on a very early review of the units. I will endeavor to locate the original review that stated the prices, but I am positive of the figures. Also, why are you rising to HP's defense of their pricing?

It seems somewhat obvious what HP is up to. There was the initial pricing that seemed reasonable, ($199 for the 110 and $299 for the $210). Later articles shortly afterwards raised both prices by $110. Possibly the pent up demand for a new PDA versus yet another so-called smart phone that manufacturers feel everyone wants, made HP's marketing feel they could justify the "new" , higher prices.

Then came Apple's decision to drop the price of their grossly over priced iPhone. This placed HP's PDA/phone's price in jeopardy. If HP wakes up, has a more realistic price for their PDAs, there is a good chance they could take a decent market share. After all not everyone wants or needs a "smart phone", especially one that is locked into a communication monopoly giant.

By holding off for now, then later releasing the units, HP may announce a ‘price cut’ across the board for their PDAs – if not, I still have my antique Toshiba, that still works well, and there is a large market of used PDAs that still will do the job.
