Has HP done it again? Canceled a Pocket PC Phone (Edition) ? Over at BarginPDA.com It certainly seems like it, since someone with supposedly connections to a project manager within HP said in BarginPDA’s forums that: “OK we saw the pictures.Problem this device was a testing device. I am sorry to say that this device will not make it to the consumer market.Also we have notified pocket pc italia to remove their pics and story. We will not release any pda with gsm anytime soon. Sorry.”
In the discussion relating to that linked article, he/she also added that: “I already said to brian that i heard it from a friend of mine.One thing to consider is to look at the specs.The Ti [processor] is old and they are coming out with an upgraded version.And only 64mb is in comparising to the xda 2 too little.Don’t get me wrong.I hope my friend was wrong and that HP america hasn’t informed europe yet.I guess we wil have to wait till CeBit.If it isn’t presented there,i will guess my friend was right and HP will not come out with a GSM device anytime soon.”
I can already hear Pocket PC enthusiasts screaming “Nooooo!” in despair. Many are hoping that the device is or will be reality this year and I can not say that I blame them. WiFi, GSM GPRS, VGA camera and Bluetooth is an impressive package for a Pocket PC. Come on HP, don’t let us down!
