Must say that I'm not overly impressed by the specs (312mhz?) although it has a nice Treo like quality...

[zarquon]

These devices have now appeared on October HP Top Value price list with surgested end user prices of £366 for the hw6510 and £382 for the hw6515.

I should add those figures are exclusive of VAT
