QUOTE(Paul (MVP) @ Aug 6 2008, 02:48) *
Regular readers will know that i'm somewhat smitten by the HTC Diamond as my main handset atm, however I am the first to admit that it's not the ideal device for all, and if you are a real heavy user or really need a hardware keyboard, it just doesn't cut it. Introducing the iPaq 914c.

The iPaq 914c packs some very impressive specs in a body that isn't huge, all things considered (especially the battery)!

Specs are as follows:
  • Windows Mobile® 6.1 Professional
  • Marvell PXA270 520 MHz Processor
  • Quad-band GSM/SPGRS/EDGE phone and Tri band UMTS, HSDPA 3.6/7.2 Mpbs
  • 256MB ROM / 128MB RAM
  • 2.46" transmissive TFT, 65K colours, 320 x 240 pixel touch panel display with LED backlight
  • Wireless LAN 802.11b/g
  • Bluetooth® 2.0 with EDR
  • GPS receiver Integrated GPS navigation (Assisted GPS)
  • 64-bit MicroSD card slot
  • Camera Integrated 3.0 mega-pixel auto focus camera
  • Removable/rechargeable 1840 mAh Lithium-Ion (user changeable)
  • Dimensions (w x d x h) 6.4 x 1.6 x 11.3 cm
  • Weight 146 g
Yes, that really does say a 1840mAh battery (compared to the Diamond's 900mAh!). It's a monster biggrin.gif

I've been using the device for over a week now, so i'm here to take your questions. Fire away! The 914c retails for an extremely reasonable £349.99 from eXpansys (don't forget our £10 off vouchers, now extended until the 18th August!)

Paul,
I use both Symbian and Win Mo devices. Coming from the N95 8GB I now have a E71-2 and like it so far...(the qwerty keyboard and all). I'm heavy into Messaging so I feel I still I need a Win Mo device in my arsenal. In my opinion,Symbian just doesnt cut it in this dept. I'm thinking about retiring my trusty HTC (ELFIN) which has been very robust and dependable. I just need a qwerty keyboard.. I have been pondering the IPAQ914. One question though, What's the difference from the 910c to the 914c? I can only find 910c (from Expansys US) with a 400mhz processor?
Thanks

How does this compare to the Samsung i780? I have a TyTN II and feel like I want a front facing keyboard.

I ahve just recieved one of these & it looks great but I'm having a few problems with it and I wonder whether they are common.

Firstly, I can't sync with Act! but more importantly, when I look at the HP Asset Viewer, the GPS is disabled. I cannot work out why this is or how to turn it on & wonder whether GPS is listed as disabled on your Ipaq & why that might be.

Thanks for your help

Sam

AFAIK hardware wise they're the same. The model number just signifies which region/distribution channel it is intended for (and the "c" for camera). This is further broken down into product codes which signify the warranty and what maps/operators etc. are pre-loaded. If you're not sure what you're getting, always check the FB code with the supplier.
