HP to finally ship the iPAQ 900 series business phone

June 10th, 2008 by

We first heard about HP’s iPAQ 900 / 914 3G Business Messenger in September of last year, and after a series of delays (which seem to be endemic to the iPAQ line), it looks like the device is finally set to start shipping. Nothing much has changed, except that a Windows Mobile 6.1 device with a 2.46-inch display, WiFi, GPS, HSDPA, and a 3 megapixel camera isn’t exactly the hot sheets it was almost a year ago. That said, that chubby case hides a 1800mAh battery, which should let enterprise users get their business on for the better part of a full day. Should be shipping around the world starting June 30, although specific worldwide dates will vary.

HP iPAQ 900 series smartphone hits the FCC

April 17th, 2008 by

Filed under: Cellphones

HP’s iPAQ 900 series smartphones haven’t exactly had the smoothest of releases (’round these parts at least) since they were first announced way back in September of last year, but one of ‘em has at least managed to recently trickle out into the hands of the lucky folks at the FCC, which could possibly indicate that it’s actually nearing a US release. In case you missed it, the Windows Mobile-based phone was previously hinted as coming to AT&T in its iPAQ 910 incarnation, although the FCC unsurprisingly doesn’t have anything to say about that possibility. If you want a better idea of what may be in store, however, you can find plenty of pics of the device (including a peek at its innards) and its complete manual at the link below.
