I can't read Hebrew, so I have no idea how reliable this information is, but this email from Ofer Shmueli was too interesting to pass up. Can anyone confirm this? It makes sense - I can't see NOT having an Xscale iPAQ to compete with the new Toshiba models.
"I have revealed in yedioth ahronot's (israel's biggest daily news paper) web site the facts about the 2 new models that hp will introduce in the end of june. the facts are like that: the new hp company is about to present 2 new pocketpc's. the ipaq 3950 and the ipaq 3970. their [sic] overoll [sic] look will be the same as the 3850 but they will have several changes. they will both run on the xscale 400 mhz processor, they will have improved screen and they will both host an sd slot which will support the sdio standart [sic] (input/output of sd accesories [sic] ). the differences between the two models will be support for bluetooth that the 3970 will enjoy later in august hpipaq will introduce a wireless device with the same specs as ment [sic] to be in the jornada 920 that was cancelled."
