The less-three-point-six-pound HP Compaq 2710p is one step closer to hitting the street. The FCC has given it the nod.
I'm particularly excited to try out the 2710p because of its connectivity features: including EvDO or HSDPA. The more I use mobile devices like my Samsung Q1 and my Toshiba M400, the more I want to stay connected. All of the time. My concern is the battery life. I hope that the 2710p delivers here.
I also want "smart" connectivity. I want to seamlessly have the phone connect between networks as I move around. If there's no WiFi, then use EVDO. If there's EVDO, then turn off the power-hungry EVDO and switch to WiFi. The iPhone is an example of a device that does this well. I once saw an Intel demo where they showed a similar feature. If HP wants me to fall in love with the built in connectivity, they'll make sure m connectivity can be seamless.
