The iPAQ Data Messenger gets reviewed by Tracy and Matt’s Blog…

Apart from the raw WM6.1 front end, my overall feeling about this phone was that HP released it a little too soon. Perhaps just to make a presence in the market place? As a fan of WM, I appreciate their commitment and support of Microsoft’s product. But also feel there were a few engineers at HP that would have liked to tweak it just a bit more before releasing.

If you are set on a HP device, maybe wait a little until WM6.5 is released and ships with it. Hopefully HP will improve the keyboard and up the screen resolution, I look forward to a revised model

HP has historical been pretty slow to come to market on all their phones. The 6915 would have been a smash if it made it to the streets in the 1st 6 months that the world knew about it. Instead, it was delayed and several phones took it out before it could even come up for air. Anyhow, this is another one that has taken a long time to make it to the streets. Apparently, HP doesn’t plan to release this one for the US phone fiends, but still, we knew about this one for quite a while. It was officially announced back in October 2008 and was available for preorder back in January 09.
