Surveylab's $8,500 Pocket PC

So $8,500 sounds like a ridiculous amount to spend on a Pocket PC, especially one that's really just a modified iPAQ h5550 from HP. But Geekzone reviews Surveylab's ike (which is mainly meant to be used by utility workers and other people who probably won't be paying for it themselves), and for that extra eight grand they put the iPAQ h5550 into a special ruggedized casing and add GPS, a digital camera, a laser range finder, and a digital compass.
