Best Pocket PC

Hello everyone.

I'd like to know the best pocket pc I can buy in Europe with outside
keyboard (like HP iPAQ 6915, my actual model), wi-fi, gps, bluetooth,
mini-slot for memory card, internal antenna, unlocked.

Thanks for your help.

Regards,

Steffo

Best for you depends on _your_ preferences regarding size, weight,
screen resolution, battery life, styling, sturdiness, cost, phone
quality (ability to connect, sound quality, and more).

Re: Best Pocket PC

I meant the best overall......... with the external keyboard and the rest of
the features I've listed.
I.e.: the HTC dash G3 seems pretty good, is it the best around right now?
Is there a new PPC coming out soon with WM6.5 upgradable to WM7?
Or is the HP 914c better?
Or is the Palm Treo Pro better?
Thanks!

Re: Best Pocket PC

Dash 3G is a non-touchscreen phonne. Given your parameters, I'd say Treo
Pro, since it has both the front keyboard and touchscreen, and from online
reviews seems less buggy than the HP 914.

Re: Best Pocket PC

Thanks Todd.
To your knowledge, is there any better PPC coming out soon?

HTC Touch Pro 2.
Nothing to beat it. ..... except the the Touch Pro 3 whenever that is
released.

Re: Best Pocket PC

Hi ZR.

Thanks for that but the Touch Pro 2 doesn't have a keyboard always out in
the front.
I might consider the HTC Snap: is that as good to your knowledge?
By the way, the HP iPAQ 914c seems as good and cheaper: what do you think
about that?

Cheers,

Steffo

I've got a Palm Treo Pro, and though it's apparently built by HTC, it
feels more "solid" and dependable than some of the HTC models. It's a
really nice balanced feel in the hands. Quick one-hand key-based
access (like smartphones) but also rapid touch-screen access when you
want it.

Here's some of the nice features I appreciate:

- Built-in GPS.
- One-key mute switch (with indicator).
- Auto-locking and quick-locking via the "End" key.
- "Solid" feel.
- Nice QWERTY+ keyboard.

In short, it's a really good mix of the smartphone and touch-screen
worlds.
