[Ed Hardy]

HP's upcoming series of cellular-wireless handhelds won't be released in the U.S. as quickly as some hope, but it will be out sooner than some reports have indicated.

This is exciting, a HW6700 with GSM, GPS, Bluetooth and Wifi, keyboard and camera. What more can we ask for?

One question remains:
Won't the 240x240 screen give problems with software???

I've seen programs for WM run perfectly on a WM Phone edition GSM except for the size. The GSM screen was smaller so the program wasn't fully visible (and it didn't automatically resize itself, the program I mean). Can we expect the same problems with this HW6500?

I wonder how long after the HW65xx will it take for the HW67xx to ship? If HP can deliver it by December then I'm on board if not then I have to consider other options. I don't really want the WiFi but I do want WMPE05.

it will if screen resolution is implied (ie games that run in full screen)

software that runs windowed (like pocket word or pocket IE) should run ok (with scroll bars)
