Scathing review HP's new rz1715 Pocket PC

Wow, so this is one of the most negative reviews we've seen in a while. The reviewer seems genuinely angry at HP for making the iPaq rz1715 so crappy. Though to be fair, the specs are less than impressive, even for a low-end model. The construction is universally cheap, except, amusingly enough, for the stylus. Continuing in the humorous vein, he rz1715 manages to underperform its predecessor, the h1945,
in all the performance benchmarks, which is certainly not the way things should be. We're not going to give a blow-by-blow on the rest of the review, but given that the rz1715 lacks built-in wireless, has a mere 15MB of RAM
available for actual use (after system processes are taken into account, and costs a massive $279.99, we just can't see people flocking to the shops if this review is even remotely accurate.
