I am tempted to buy HP iPAQ hw6915 but need to know a few issues. Let say when we had more than 1000 contacts information and more than 800+ SMS messages, does it slow the performance of this PDA phone? Also is there a lag in keyboard typing?

I have been using this phone for a few months. Can't say the GPS works perfect but all in all, it's a very stable and reliable phone.

Downloading software from a torrent or p2p web site is illegal, and GSM Arena does not condone these types of discussions. You would be wise to ask that question in the proper forum.

That said, what you choose to do is your own responsibility, and when you get caught, you will be prosecuted ;-)

Hope that answered your question!

Hello! I'm owner of this incredible device. Wifi and GPS are one of the best. Yes of course Skype works on device with no problems. Also Tom tom, you just need maps and it's it. Battery is the only thing that matters me, but i have olready ordered 1800 mAh. And you might have problems if you install programs witch don't suport Windows mobile 5.0 operating system, others work perfectly. I give 9/10.

As an owner of an iPAQ 6915, let me clear up some misconceptions about this device.

Firstly, the display. Agreed 240x240 is not the biggest out there but it is certainly one of the best in its class and when compared to other cell phones, the iPAQs colour, clarity and brightness are infinitly better.

Secondly, the connectivity is amazing. It would be very hard to find a similar device with the extensive connectivity options offered. And it is true, Skype works on this iPAQ

Thirdly, Windows Mobile 5. In terms of ease of use and functionality, WM5 is probably the best OS out there, and then one must take into account that there are far more applications for WM then there will ever be for Symbian operating systems (used on all Nokias including E61). Opening Word, Excel or PDF attachements from e-mails in Windows Mobile is wonderful. Syncronisation of contacts, tasks, calender, files or anything else as well as adding/removing programs is handeled very well using MS ActiveSync. Windows Media Player provides music management capability that in my opinion rivels even that of the Apple iPods.

GPS also works nicely. I have been using the device with freeware GPS software (ODGPS) and even that is able to provide me with mapping as well as statistical information.

HP has clearly put a lot of thought into the design of this device, from the flip open, translucive, protective cover, to the extensive "HP Profiles" and "iPAQ Wireless" Applications. As a total communication solution, multimedia powerhouse and organisational nerve center, I would strongly recommend this product.

been waiting and waiting in USA for release. bought a UK model. NO repeat NO keyboard documentation, no NO windows documentation and outbound emails go nowhere.

VERY DISAPOINTED. thought this would be the holy grail of communication. just a nightmare so far. have spent hours on the phone with T-Mobile - no results.
