HP to finally ship the iPAQ 900 series business phone

by Nilay Patel, posted Jun 10th 2008 at 3:47PM

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.

This looks like the unholy offspring of a T-Mobile Dash combined with the keyboard of a Centro.

I know the PDA market is dead (and has been for some time), but everything that HP has done to the iPaq line is just so sad. They took a leading brand and just absolutely killed it.
