The MWC 2008 - Live Report

On its booth, HP showcased the iPAQ 600 and 500 series, but the 900’s were strangely missing. We’ve no idea if they have been cancelled though. The 600 is well sized for PocketPC and stays OK in the hand, but we are not really sure of the idea of the ‘virtual scroll wheel’ situated over the numeric keypad. Well, it is very responsive, but doesn’t have confirm functions and so, after you’ve scrolled, must press another key. Here we must note the presence of a numeric keypad – something untypical for WM6 Professional phone. As specifications, the phone is very promising – global GSM with 3G, 3-megapixel camera, GPS, WiFi. We are liking it, so we will get it for an in-depth review in near future, so stay tuned.
