Pocket-lint has the goodies on what HP has been up to; at least in Europe. Normally we don’t cover HP products as we have a “lite” boycott on them due to the way they treated us last year; however this product may be too cool to let old grudges get in the way of showing you a neat looking if not inspired gadget.
What they have done is take an HP rx1950 and bundle it with a nifty GPS integrated cradle and pre installed GPS software. GPS software is by ViaMichelin; must be a UK thing as I am not familiar with that brand here in Seattle.
The unit is fully loaded with Windows Mobile 5.0 and WiFi. The only real problem is that for GPS use you will need an SD GPS card unless you want to schlep the cradle around with you.
The HP iPaq rx1950 with the ViaMichelin GPS navigation setup will be packaged for select Uk retailers and online shops for about $450 US or £299.
