HP To Release Two New iPaqs
One of the things that HP gained from the Compaq merger was their market leading PocketPC product line. They plan to hold onto that lead with two new iPaq models. One model will be a slim low-end model for consumers. The high-end model will feature Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and fingerprint security. Having used a PocketPC with both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, I can say it works really well. I used Wi-Fi to grab email and updated Avantgo around the office. When I left the office, I used Bluetooth. This is a perfect example of how the two technologies are are complementry.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
