Honest 836 Report post Posted October 22, 2008 HP's New Smartphones Revealed One emphasizes voice communication, the other affords easier data exchange HP has unveiled two iPAQ branded Windows Mobile 6.1-based smartphones featuring new navigation control. The two new iPAQ smartphones -- Voice Messenger and Data Messenger were displayed on the HP website with dedicated pages each and are targeted at the business mobile users. The Voice Messenger has candy bar form factor while Data Messenger is a slider with touchscreen display. The Voice Messenger has a 2.4-inch LED backlit display offering a 320x240 resolution, a 20-key QWERTY keypad, WLAN (the radio support includes 802.11 b/g with WPA2 security, 3G-ready supporting Quadband GSM/GPRS/EDGE, HSDPA, HSUPA and Tri-band UMTS). This phone sports Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard running on 128MB SDRAM, 256MB Flash ROM and also features 3.1-megapixel autofocus camera, A-GPS and has 1260mAh Lithium Polymer battery. While the Data Messenger carries similar specs it mostly differs in its 2.8-inch 320x240 touchscreen display. Since it runs Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional, editing of documents through the Mobile Office pack will be possible; interestingly it sports the Opera browser as well. Surprisingly, this model has a 1140 mAh Lithium Polymer battery by default -- not a lot of juice for a touchscreen enabled device. However both phones feature a power save mode. Both phones have an optical sensor that offers five-way navigation control. The iPAQ Voice Messenger will ship on 5th November for $532 while Data Messenger will ship for whooping $665 on 22nd November. It might take a while to hit Indian shores and we'll keep you updated on the same. Courtesy : Techtree Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
