Got your drool cup ready? Good. Someone has started a thread at Brighthand, pointed out to us by AhuhX, and it's making me weak in the knees. How would you like a Pocket PC with...
...a 2100 mAh battery?
...built-in WiFi, Bluetooth, and GPRS?
...64K colour back-lit screen?
...64 megs of Flash ROM, 128 megs of RAM?
...800 mhz to 1 Ghz CPU?
...320 x 480 screen resolution?
...biometric security?
I shudder to think what the price tag will be on this beast, especially considering the lofty pricing strategy HP is using with their iPAQs, but the specs...look at those specs! 100% rumours at this point, so don't take it to the bank. Do go read the Brighthand posting though - it has some very interesting information, including a type of USB connection that is quite unique.
