At least they got WM5 on this one.  But honestly, EDGE?  We've had EV-DO almost 2 years in this country and we're supposed to be OK with the slow data rate of EDGE?  Where there is not EV-DO, there is HSDPA, so there's no excuse for HP.  It needs to have either HSDPA (backwards compatible with EDGE)or EV-DO!!!!!!  My Pocket PC 6700 from Sprint has fast EV-DO PLUS WiFi (something Verizon insists on crippling) and the unlimited data plan for EV-DO on Sprint is $7.50 per month vs. Cingular's $25.00 to $49.00 per month for slow EDGE.  Pass on this one and get the Sprint PPC 6700 or at least the Verizon Treo 700 or PPC 6700, or the Motorola Q with EVDO when it comes out.  When will HP finally "get it"?  Of course I was scratching my head 3 years ago, asking the same thing of Palm, and now look - their OS is dead, and they now use Windows Mobile as their OS...  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sprint PPC 6700 User]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 10th 2006 10:43PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HP iPAQ hw6900 Mobile Messenger solid details]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/10/hp-ipaq-hw6900-mobile-messenger-solid-details/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/10/hp-ipaq-hw6900-mobile-messenger-solid-details/</guid><description><![CDATA[It is inlcluding a SirfStar III GPS chip! sweeet!<br><br><br><br><br><br><a href='http://www.insidepda.de/pocket-pc,HP-iPAQ-Pocket-hw6915,technische-daten,129.html<br>'>http://www.insidepda.de/pocket-pc,HP-iPAQ-Pocket-hw6915,technische-daten,129.html<br></a><br><br><br><a href='http://www.releasereview.com/hp9615specs.aspx&article=new<br>'>http://www.releasereview.com/hp9615specs.aspx&article=new<br></a><br><br><br>http://www.releasereview.com/hp9615specs.aspx&article=new<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[b52down]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 11th 2006 8:06AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HP iPAQ hw6900 Mobile Messenger solid details]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/10/hp-ipaq-hw6900-mobile-messenger-solid-details/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/10/hp-ipaq-hw6900-mobile-messenger-solid-details/</guid><description><![CDATA[I like my iPaq W6315 as a Pocket PC, but as phone it is the least reliable thing ever.

Anyway they gave door prizes of the latest to be released with WM5 from Cingular and hence my unit (took my finance to a seminar and she won the grand door prize and gifted it to me - sweet: ) had been promised end of December -- to early January and now it looks like end of 1st Quarter?<br><br>Cingular's devCentral developers web site doesn't even show all of the planned to be released phones!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Joe Graehl]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 12th 2006 2:46PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HP iPAQ hw6900 Mobile Messenger solid details]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/10/hp-ipaq-hw6900-mobile-messenger-solid-details/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/10/hp-ipaq-hw6900-mobile-messenger-solid-details/</guid><description><![CDATA[It looks like the hw6900 will come with TomTom Navigator GPS software.<br><br>Also, at 21mm thick, it will be thicker than the motorola Q, which is only 11.5 mm thick.
