HP is not ashamed of putting its own label on Pocket PC phone designed by Quanta : HP iPAQ rw6815 launches in Europe
October 11, 2006 [Pocket PC phone] | By Edward J. R.

After being officially available in Asia for some time already, the HP iPAQ rw6815 comes at last also to Europe (but apparently not to USA).

HP is so shameless! Once being known for big innovations, now it is just sticking its own label on products not only manufactured in Asia but also designed there: HP iPAQ rw6815 has not been designed by HP but is just a re-branded O2 Xda Atom designed and manufactured by Quanta in Taiwan.

HP is announcing a launch of a notebook with built-in 3G support, but HP iPAQ rw6815 is a very outdated model without 3G - another sign how low HP has fallen:

three new HP iPAQ Pocket PCs and announced availability of a 3G broadband wireless notebook, to make it easier than ever before for active professionals to be more productive while on the go.

The introductions include the all new HP iPAQ rx5000 series Travel Companion, the HP iPAQ rw6815 Personal Messenger and the HP iPAQ rx4000 Mobile Media Companion.

[...]

The HP iPAQ rw6815 Personal Messenger is small in size but big on connectivity and features so users can make phone calls, send text and instant messages, surf the Internet, check emails, and much more

The original source of this story (unlike most other websites we provide it!!!) is here and you can find there more information. Unfortunately the launch of HP iPAQ rw6815 is just a minor mention there.

Conclusion: HP is no longer to be trusted when it comes to Windows Mobile phones! The HP iPAQ 6915 is just a minor upgrade (the same basis construction) of HP iPAQ h6510 and HP practically for years have not released any new design of Windows Mobile phone and is totally missing out not only on 3G (UMTS) but also on latest technologies like HSDPA.
