The hw6515 feels like a PDA that HP forgot to release last year.

HP IPAQ HW6515 Mobile Messenger

Just as the great unwashed now think that all things MP3 is called an iPod, so there was a time when all handheld devices were simply known as iPAQs. This must have annoyed most vendors, especially Palm, but HP was never heard to complain.

QWERTY keyboard, GPS built-in

Poor battery life

The HP iPAQ hw6515 Mobile Messenger may not be the best looking device on the market and as with all connected PDAs, there is a trade-off between the usability and the size of the unit. That said, it works well and the quality of the device isn't in...

HP iPAQ hw6515

This PDA does well with e-mail and GPS, but we're troubled by its incompatibility with some Pocket PC software.

GoodLink 4.5 e-mail. Good battery life. Good GPS. Dual expansion slots.

Odd screen size. Quiet phone speaker. Poor camera. Bugs.

HP iPAQ hw6515

The sleek HP iPAQ hw6500 Mobile Messenger is a global communications device giving you the best in connectivity, productivity, and mobility with high-end features such as support for EDGE and GSM/GPRS networks, GPS Navigation and multiple messaging...

If I wanted a phone with organiser functions, there are many better looking devices out there in the market. The only reason for forking out a huge amount of money is to tap into the productivity of the Microsoft office suite for PDAs.

HP iPAQ hw6515 Mobile Messenger

The HP iPAQ hw6515 is a fine product for messaging and GPS navigation if you are ready to pay the price for it. On the other hand, if you buy every product: phone, pocket-size GPS navigator and PDA separately, the total price would be even higher. The...
