More HP reviews , RRP: AU$1199.00

The good:

  • Quad-band GSM ideal for travellers
  • Excellent GPS navigation provided by Whereis
  • Supports SD and miniSD memory cards
  • QWERTY thumboard for text entry

The bad:

  • Lacklustre screen
  • No Wi-Fi
  • Whereis Navigator uses GPRS for map data
  • Performance dampened by relatively slow processor

The bottomline:

The hw6515 is a Pocket PC, a quad-band phone, a GPS navigator and a 1.3-megapixel camera all rolled into one. Why is it, then, that we still want more from this device?
