Oct 26, 2006 gps navigation, phones
HP and Cingular today announced Cingular will be the first carrier in the United States to offer a new HP iPAQ hw6920 handheld device with five wireless communications technologies just like the HTC P3300.
With the HP iPAQ hw6920, you can use Cingular’s nationwide GSM/GPRS/EDGE wireless data network, Wi-Fi, GPS, infrared and Bluetooth to keep in touch.
The GPS chip is built-in however you are going to have to purchase a navigator software to make use of it. Cingular is willing to make money out of that deal too of course. Cingular’s launch of the TeleNav driving directions service, available on the hw6920/5, iPAQ hw6515, Cingular 8125, and Palm Treo 650 will cost $5.99/month for 10 trip requests or $9.99/month for unlimited use, on top of your data and voice plans.
Availability:
The iPAQ hw6920 series is available from Cingular Wireless for as low as $359.99 for business customers with a two-year contract and qualifying voice and data plans. The iPAQ hw6920 series also is available through hp.com and select HP channel partners.
To bring clarity to the numbering of the HP devices: The hw6920/5, is identical to the iPAQ hw6940/5, which HP has been selling on their Web site for $600. Both sets of devices are quad-band Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC handhelds with full QWERTY keyboards below 3-inch, 65k-color, 240-by-240 square screens. They run on 416 Mhz Intel PXA270 processors, have EDGE and Bluetooth, a mini-SD memory card slot, Wi-Fi, GPS, and 64MB of RAM. With both sets of iPAQs, the model ending in “5″ has a 1.3-megapixel camera and the model ending in “0″ has no camera.

I have been using a 6915 for over 2 weeks now; the A-GPS is very good and extremely accurate. The PPC itself is pretty good, really like the QWERTY keyboard. It’s very handy when it comes to sending SMS / talking on Pocket MSN; pretty much like using a normal keyboard.
Very much like the Ultra Sharp TFT Screen. It is pretty heavy (175g) for some people… Only thing I didn’t like was the Camera, its just 1.3 MP, it is okay but not great… Flash is useless when it comes to taking a picture in dark. You can have a constant light, which is pretty bring compared to normal light.
Bottom line is, you need to update the A-GPS files every 2.5 days, its just a tiny file so can be done via GPRS.
Since I am in UK, it does come with TomTom 5.3 with one Free City map. iPaq choice does give TomTom 6 upgrade for free… All you need to buy is the map…
