Finally, a worthy replacement for my HP iPaq hx4700 (also HTC-made for those of you who weren't aware). My criteria for retiring my iPaq was the inclusion of current wireless tech (wifi/bt/gps/3g) and phone without sacrificing a nice large hi-res display. Also didn't want to give up solid build quality i.e. the magnesium alloy body.

Can someone comment on the build quality and materials used in the HD2? I sure hope they didn't go with a plastic body and battery cover!
(has that option been there since pre-3.0? i never noticed it before)
I was wondering why there was a connect to 'PHONE' or 'PSP' option in firmware 3.0 when I was reactivating the remote play on my PSP yesterday after getting back my launch 60gb console from repairs.
waiting to load onto my first gen Asus 4g/701... the one that started the revolution!
The nexto (various flavours) have been very good... and blazing fast transfers are a plus. you can load it up with any size notebook drive of your choosing and can find versions with various interfaces. some even have USB host to offload USB keys or other drives, even.
Tried on my primary computer but wouldn't boot after I had installed it -- it wasn't liking that my primary boot drive is in a RAID configuration. I then tried to install in my first gen EeePC -- wouldn't install even on my nLited WinXP -- it needs over 3GB on the boot drive to install! Has anybody been successful in installing Presto on an SD card or a USB drive?
I'm SO ready to get my C64 emulator fired up for this device. Hopefully it'll be cheaper than the launch pricing I spent on my either my VIC-20 or C-64. With the screen, this will function like the dream computer I couldn't ever afford, the SX-64 'portable'.
Just tried and the deal doesn't seem to work --- anybody try with success?
I'd have to say that my HP iPaq hx4700/4705 is still a winner -- still can't find anything 'current' to rival the hardware of the device that I continue to use to this day (with the help of 3rd party WinMo 6.X development community). My ideal device would be my hx4700 with a phone. 3G data and GPS would be bonus, though not a necessity.
I would only charge for the initial hardware fee, and then for each month that my service is active have Sprint provide me with service credits until my net cost for the box is $0. After that, either have no more ongoing fees or (wishful thinking) have them continue to provide the credit to offset the rest of my Sprint services.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I commonly need to boot a system from an external disc and take a snapshot of the host system. I also then need to burn a copy of the image to a DVD. While I can do it with two separate external devices, and two power supplies, and two I/O cables, it'd be nice to find a small dual-drive enclosure. It would need to have USB, eSATA, and FireWire. Either slim-line or half-height bay for the optical burner would be fine, and space for either a 2.5- or 3.5-inch hard disc. Any ideas?"
