iPaqHQ has one of the first reviews of the new HP iPAQ rz1715 "Mobile Media Companion" Pocket PC, and let's just say that they aren't terribly impressed. It's not that it's bad so much as it's not any better than... [MORE]
So I actually walked by the subway ads for the upcoming Brittany Murphy/Ron Livingston pic 'Little Black Book' without once realizing that she was plucking a Palm from his pocket instead of, you know, a book. I even went so... [MORE]

Roland Piquepaille sat down with the CEO and CTO of Novinit, the French firm behind the Jackito "Tactile Digital Assistant" (the one you use with just your thumbs). Although the company appears to have realized many of the errors they... [MORE]
Reader Lee Crane sent me images of the DC/Incase Skatebag, the backpack announced yesterday designed specifically for Powerbooks and iBooks, although I have a sneaking suspicion that you could even put a gnarly PC laptop in there just fine. It's... [MORE]
So I thought we'd give it a little time to settle down, what with all the cries of fraud abounding, but as far as I can tell, the Jackito PDA (excuse me, TDA, as in Tactile Digital Assistant) appears to... [MORE]
Looks like online office retailer CDW jumped the gun a bit with HP's new iPaq line, revealing some surprisingly disappointing information about the rz1715, specifically. According to CDW's information, the rz1715 will not be using the Second Edition of Windows... [MORE]
