3GSM World Congress 2005 coverage: photo review: iPaq Mobile Messenger h6500 compared to Orange SPV C500 + close up of keyboard
February 15, 2005 [Pocket PC phone] | By Edward J. R.

Update: this phone has display resolution 240x240, not 200x200 as we reported by mistake earlier! (thanks, Hubert from UberGizmo for noticing it!)

We have been talking with HP folks today (audio interview in form of podcast we will publish soon) and apart from taking ultra-high resolution photos that you can see in this news item, we obtained also some interesting information about this phone.

Here is photo of iPaq Mobile Messenger h6500 taken without flash:

Some highlights from the interview with HP today:
  • this phone is coming to the market in April 2005 and it will cost around 700 Euro or in other words "the same as current HP iPaq phone h6300"
  • the built-in GPS is compatible with NMEA standards and accessible under serial port for regular Pocket PC software
  • confirmed: this phone indeed has 240x240 pixel screen
  • when out of GPS range this phone is switching to triangulation when cell IDs of 3 cells in cellular network are used to calculate position
  • HP forbids its employees to reveal technical specifications of this phone yet, but we have got confirmation that it will be faster than HP iPAQ h6300; we have been told that detailed specifications of this phone will be released in April 2005
  • no built-in Wi-Fi but SDIO compatibe SD card slot
  • 2 card slods: SD SDIO and mini-SD
  • it will be sold in 2 versions: with built-in camera and without built-in camera ; this phone is targeting enterprise market therefore version without camera will be provided
