Conventional PocketPC's do they exist?

It looks like only HP makes them these days or are there more? Yes I know
what a SmartPhone is and I have a BlackBerry. However its more of a email,
pager, smart phone, rather than a Power House PDA which is what the old
PocketPC's and Palm's were back in the days when these devices were being
made all the time by many different companies.

If you do not know the difference between a SmartPhone and a PocketPC go to

I only know of HP iPAQ's. Nevertheless, for example the Dell Axim x51(v) is
still a great disconnected device - particularly because of the constant
XDA-Devs support. That is, you can safely buy a used Axim - it'll run all
your apps (except for the ones requiring more than 64M RAM).

Re: Conventional PocketPC's do they exist?

I just got one and I love it. I'm running WM6.1 (Lennysh's edition) and it
runs pretty fast. I got it used (excellent condition) from ebay for $200
that included the PDA and cradle, a Bluetooth GPS receiver, 3 SD cards witha
bunch of movies in them, a Rhino case and two new extra batteries.
