HP iPAQ 510: It Lives!

Looks like HP resurrected its near-dead brand of PDAs. The new iPAQ 510 is a strange, yet slim phone device that runs Windows Mobile 6 and comes with features like Skype, EDGE, Wi-Fi and extended battery life.

Despite packing some decent features, we still have no clue why HP would continue the iPAQ brand. Says Laptop Mag:

The HP iPAQ 510 Voice Messenger is a solid phone for people who like the idea of having Outlook in their pocket but don’t need a QWERTY keyboard. HP does a nice job of not only incorporating the Windows Mobile 6 OS but improving upon it as well. If you have your heart set on a high-performing Voice Commander functionality, though, you might want to wait for round two before spending $300.

They end up giving the iPAQ 510 three out of five stars, not exactly what I’d call earth-shattering. If you really have a lot of cash to spend, then I guess you could drop $300 on it—though I’d try to avoid doing so.

john (Who am I?)

this reviewer probably doesnt even own this phone because it does NOT come with skype, nor does the phone support it. Idiots.
