This looks like the last gasp for the iPAQ line. HP is trying to jump on the bandwagon of Blackberry, iPhone, and so on. But 3 years ago and more, they had iPAQs that worked as a phone, camera, MP3 player, had Windows apps like Word and Excel, and could browse the Web and use Bluetooth headgear.

What's really the tragedy here is that even though the iPAQ had most of the iPhone features years ago, HP's technical R&D never corrected the incredibly serious bugs in the old 4000, 5000 and 6000 series models. Application memory was mysteriously crippled. OS corruption propagated onto backups. Users like my brother and I had to reset the units several times a day, with hard resets (lose all your contacts, appointments, and tasks) every month or so.

Gradually, customers got wise, and the office supply stores here in the States dropped the iPAQ line. Now that HP is trying to resurrect the iPAQ, I say, good luck -- it's their last chance, and it may be too late at this point.

I'm a big fan of the iPAQ range, and though my old 6515 is getting past it's use by date, it still works pretty well (I do find that the phone is a little on the quiet side).

I've only had to do one hardware reset on it. I do find that every other week it needs a software reset, but that is a Windows Mobile issue, and not the iPAQ's fault (all the other makes of Windows Mobile PDA's ive dealt with have the same issue).

I will seriously consider getting wither the 610 or the 910 as my next phone. (toss up between them and the new TyTN II from HTC)

> The 110 is expected to retail for $110 (£55/€65)

Fifty-five quid! You sure about that?

Pocket PC Thoughts are reporting the 110 is $299 which means a UK price of £189-£199. Shame, I was excited for a minute.

I was going to buy one just for the hell of it! What a shame Reg got a price wrong (again).
