Windows Mobile smart phones have traditionally been the workhorses of the smartphone world – capable, versatile, but never likely to win any beauty contests. On the face of it, HP's brace of new iPaq handsets - the Voice Messenger, and this, the Data Messenger - would seem to fit all too neatly into that description.
HP iPaq …
I have an HP Travel Companion - totally worthless piece of junk. Maybe its Windows or maybe its the device but you have to constantly do hardware resets.
HP customers services treat you with contempt - they know they ship poor products but will not admit to it.
.. oh its running Winblows, of course not ... excuse me whilst I reboot my Samsung SGH-i600 dumbphone with WM6 on it because it has hung again .. happens 2 -3 times a day ... good job I only really use it as a wifi <-> 3G gateway for my ipod touch otherwise I might be more upset 8-)
@AC: Apple is generously waiting for the competition to implement smartphone basics properly before moving on to the advanced features. No luck so far for those of us longing for a more advanced iPhone.

Not an iPhone "killer" then?

First optical controller?
Doesn't the Samsung Omnia have one of those? Pretty sure it does.
Presumably the self-portrait mirror is to be used in conjunction with an inbuilt photo template with 'dumb ass' at the bottom?
Oh Lord ...
please place all the iPhags in a small bag and chuck em all to Hell, where you shall indeed place their petty king Jobs soon. Amen.
