iPAQ presently refers to a Pocket PC and personal digital assistant first unveiled by Compaq in April 2000; the name was borrowed from Compaq's earlier iPAQ Desktop Personal Computers. Since Hewlett-Packard's acquisition of Compaq, the product has been marketed by HP. The device is the main competition to the Palm, but provides more multimedia capabilities and the familiar Microsoft Windows interface. Earlier, units were modular. "Sleeve" accessories, technically called jackets, which slide around the unit and add functionality such as a card reader, wireless networking, GPS, and even extra batteries were used. Current iPAQs have most of these features integrated into the base device itself.

[edit] Newest revisions In August 2007, HP announced new members of the iPAQ family: 100, 200, 300, 600 and 900 series. The 100 and 200 series are regular PDAs with Windows Mobile 6 Classic, the second one being launched towards the business customer. The new 300 series is a GPS unit, running the Windows CE 5.0 OS. The 600 and 900 series are phones with integrated GPS, running Windows Mobile 6 Professional. The 600 series featuring a numeric pad and the 900 series a full QWERTY keyboard. In February 2007, HP announced the iPAQ rx4000 Mobile Companions to work as a PDA/media device and rx5900 Travel Companions to work as PDA/GPS units. Both devices running Windows Mobile 5 for Pocket PC. In the same month, HP announced their first Windows Mobile 6 device: iPAQ 510 Voice Messenger, with Smartphone OS, and numeric pad. In February 2005 HP introduced the iPAQ Mobile Messenger hw6500 series to selected media at the 3GSM conference in Cannes, France. The article has been updated to reflect this. In August 2004, HP announced the h63xx series of Pocket PC Phone Editions, the hx47xx high-end model, and the 17xx budget end. In June 2003, HP announced a new line of iPAQs, and sent the h3xxx series to pension, now there is a h1xxx budget line, a h2xxx consumer line, and a h5xxx professional line. These will be sold with Pocket PC 2003 as standard. As of February 2005 the latest model for sale at retail is the hx2000 series. Aimed at enterprise users, it sports features introduced in the iPAQ h5000 series such as built-in Biometric fingerprint reader. At the top of this series is the hx27xx with a 624 MHz Intel PXA270 processor, 312 MB total memory (128 MB ROM and 192 MB SDRAM); Up to 185 MB user-available memory (includes 80 MB iPAQ File Store), Wi-Fi (802.11b), Bluetooth® wireless technology and Windows Mobile 5.0.

[edit] Compaq iPAQ H3600 series Compaq's flagship iPAQs were those of the 3600 models. Originally running the Microsoft Windows for Pocket PC 2000 OS, these devices featured 12-bit color displays, 32/64 MB of RAM, and 16 MB ROM. Models in the 3600 series are: 3630, 3635, 3650 - which are identical models with 16 MB ROM and 32 MB RAM sold via different marketing channels. The 3635 was accompanied by a CF expansion sleeve that was sold separately with the other 2. 3660, 3670 - 64MB RAM. The 3670 was distributed in the US while the 3660 was distributed in Europe. A Pocket PC 2002 OS upgrade is available, but the smaller ROM requires some software such as the media player to install in volatile RAM instead of the ROM as in the previous Pocket PC 2000. As used units at low price, they are a great way to inexpensively get started with a PDA. While limited by no on-board expansion slot, the iPAQ 3600 series memory and functionality can still be expanded by optional Compact Flash and PCMCIA sleeves, which allow users to add memory and peripherals. Some of these sleeves contain extra batteries to extend the iPAQ's battery life under the strain of added devices. [edit] Compaq iPAQ H3100 series This model was released after the 3600 series as a lower end & cost-effective model. It has a grayscale semi-transmissive STN LCD and only 16MB RAM. It had very limited success. [edit] Compaq iPAQ H3700 series These devices had the exact same form factor as their 3600 model predecessors, however, they had an increased ROM size and ran the PPC2002 OS natively. [edit] Compaq iPAQ H3800 series Compaq's original high-end series models. These units were also the first to include 16-bit screens, incorporated an SD card reader and the highest RAM capacity of any Pocket PC. They were also the first to offer integrated Bluetooth, on select models such as the 3870. The 3850 had 206 MHz StrongARM CPU, with 32MB ROM and 64MB RAM, 240x320 TFT screen, running Microsoft Pocket PC 2002.

Adopted a smaller, slimmer frame making it more competitive in terms of portability. Main memory size was 64 MB, larger than all other budget units. Ran PPC2002 (1910 only) or 2003. Introduction of removable batteries, allowing for the user to buy extra batteries and swap as necessary. Unlike older iPAQs, many existing iPAQ accessories were incompatible or unsupported due to its budget nature. The 1900 series did not implement support for RS232[2], so many GPS devices are incompatible with the handhelds in the series. Only the rx1950/rx1955 had a serial interface implemented.[3] RS-232 (also referred to as EIA RS-232C or V.24) is a standard for serial binary data interchange between a DTE (Data terminal equipment) and a DCE (Data communication equipment). ... Over fifty GPS satellites such as this NAVSTAR have been launched since 1978. ... [edit] HP iPAQ H5400 series Introduced as the next generation of the iPAQ corporate line after the 3900 series, adding Wi-Fi support, improved Bluetooth and a biometric scanner. However, the 5400 was plagued with many bugs, though most were corrected through firmware upgrades. The CPU is the ARM-based Intel XScale PXA250. Official Wi-Fi logo Wi-Fi (pronounced wye-fye, IPA: ), also unofficially known as Wireless Fidelity, is a wireless technology brand owned by the Wi-Fi Alliance intended to improve the interoperability of wireless local area network products based on the IEEE 802. ... The XScale, a microprocessor core, is Marvells (formerly Intels) implementation of the 5th generation of the ARM architecture, and consists of several distinct families: IXP, IXC, IOP, PXA and CE (see more below). ...

The 5500 showng the logon screen, requiring a fingerprint Image File history File links IPAQ_5500. ... [edit] HP iPAQ H5100 series A cutdown version of the 5500 series, without Wi-Fi support and the extra RAM (only 64 MB). iPAQ Backup allows for safe, easy, automatic data copying [edit] HP iPAQ H2200 series Targeting the general consumer/prosumer, the 2200 series is almost every bit as capable as their corporate counterparts (less RAM, no integrated Wi-Fi, no biometric scanner). Main memory size was 64 MB RAM, PPC2003, better support for iPAQ accessories than the 1900 series though still no iPAQ expansion "sleeve" support. Bluetooth, SD card and CompactFlash card support built-in. There is an advanced IR port built into the 2245 and 2210 models (and perhaps others in this series), and the software bundle includes a program which essentially turns this device into a universal remote control. [edit] HP iPAQ H4300 series Similar to the 2200 series in terms of features, the 4300 series targets the corporate audience by having a beefier battery and integrated Wi-Fi in addition to Bluetooth. No CompactFlash reader, but does have a SD-card and SDIO slot. A thumb keyboard is integrated into the device. [edit] HP iPAQ H4100 series Essentially the corporate version of the 1900 series with many of the functionalities that were stripped from the budget unit. Also adds Wi-Fi and SDIO. Closer to the 4300-series internally. It came with PPC2003 [edit] HP iPAQ hx2000 series Aimed at the business market, this series of PDAs supports built-in Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, SD Card and CF Card slots, and Windows Mobile 2003 SE. Some have included a Microsoft® Windows® CE 5.0 firmware upgrade disc. The different models have some different features. [edit] HP iPAQ hx21xx sequence This series of PDAs sported only the barebones set of features listed above, and ran a slower 400 MHz XScale processor. No fingerprint reader and only 64 MB of memory. [edit] HP iPAQ hx24xx sequence [edit] HP iPAQ hx27xx sequence A very full featured business class PDA. Sporting a 624 MHz Intel PXA270 XScale processor, 128 MB of RAM and ROM (each), bluetooth, WiFI and a built-in biometric fingerprint reader, this model set is aimed at high-security and -performance enterpises. The fingerprint reader, with the proprietary HP ProtectTools software, can create "encrypted folders" in RAM or on storage cards (in these models' case, the iPAQ File Store, the SD Card, or the CF Card) to prevent anyone from swiping the memory cards and reading sensitive company-critical data. The processor, running at the aforementioned 624 MHz, helps with the encryption/decryption processes (HP ProtectTools can also encrypt the entire contents of the onboard memory). [edit] HP iPAQ hx4700 series The high end corporate edition to replace the 5500 series. Sturdy magnesium alloy casing, 4 inch diagonal VGA screen at 65K colors, integrated Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 1.2, MMC and Secure Digital slot with SDIO, Compact Flash slot, 64 MB of RAM and 128 MB of ROM, with an Intel XScale PXA270 624 MHz processor. It contains a 1800 mAh battery in the selling package with a removable 3600 mAh battery as an option. HX4700 is known as the first and only[citation needed] WinMobile PDA with 2 modes touchpad. By design it is not compatible with previous IPAQ jacket accessories, but the proprietary USB connector at the bottom is still the same. It does not include leather or plastic case, but contains a removable screen cover instead. Little known fact: Headphone adapter accepts 55xx series 4 pin plugs (microphone input) [citation needed] HX4700 running Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition at first release. There is a Pocket Informant 2005 integrated in ROM. Built-in encryption software also included. Can't run NEVO TV (remote control software) because it does not have Consumer IR. It contains Fast IR instead. In April 2006 HP finally sells Windows Mobile 5 upgrade option for HX4700 users at their website. In this upgrade most of the additional software is also upgraded including the Pocket Informant. In June 2007 a Russian programmer updated the WM5 ROM to a much improved WM5 AKU 3.5, thereby fixing many problems the earlier WM5 (AKU 2.02) had been plagued with and giving an old device a "second life".[citation needed] In August 2007, the same Russian programmer released a WM6 ROM for the hx4700.[citation needed] [edit] HP iPAQ rz1700 series The HP iPAQ rz1700 series is a budget line, with non-built in (but available as a WiFi SD Card) Wi-Fi and IR transmission, as well as a USB cable. The devices run Windows Mobile 2003 SE and have 32MB of RAM. They had a microphone input, a SDIO slot, 3.5 mm headphone jack, a 240x320 colour screen capable of displaying 65,355 colours and a 203 MHz Samsung processor. 16Mb SD Card Secure Digital (also known as SD) is a flash memory memory card format. ... [edit] HP iPAQ rx4000, rx3100, rx3400 and rx3700 series Billed as "Mobile Media Companions", some of these models feature Nevo personal media software, onboard 1.2 megapixel cameras (rx3400 and rx3700), Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and an onboard Secure Digital card slot for extra documents or media. A SanDisk Multi Card Reader, with a 2 GB SD Card inserted. ... The rx4240 and rx4250 are great medium entry PDAs: bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Windows Mobile 5, Mobile Office and heaps more are preloaded. The rx4000 range features a Samsung 400MHz Processor, and boasts a larger 128 MB ROM and 64 MB SDRAM, Up to 64 MB user-available memory on the 4240. The rx3100 and rx3400 had 32 MB of RAM and 300 MHz processors, whereas the rx3700 had 64 MB of RAM and a 400 MHz processor. The latter also came with a 1440 mAh battery as standard, rather than the rx3400's 920 mAh unit. These models have been known to suffer from a bug related to the way the iPAQ File Store, the rx3700's ROM, operates and manages files. This bug prevents the user from deleting or renaming files on the ROM, causing significant deficiencies in its operation. This bug is known by HP, but there is not yet an official solution for the problem. The current version of the Windows Mobile 2003 SE operating system has been known to cause issues with Bluetooth functionality. Some patches have been released by the manufacturer, such as for Bluetooth headphones, but others, such as connectivity with HP GPS devices, have not been released. The devices continue to be non-functional for these models despite being published as compatible. [edit] HP iPAQ h6300 series Pocket PC Phone. Contains a GSM phone, 64 MB RAM, 168 MHz Texas Instruments OMAP processor, and comes with a detachable thumb keyboard. Also includes VGA quality camera and 1800 mAh battery. It has built in Bluetooth and Wi-Fi (802.11b). Texas Instruments OMAP is a Texas Instruments proprietary microprocessor for multimedia applications. ... T-Mobile used to sell the h6315 but has decided to withdraw it from the market. The firmware was never updated to remove all of the bugs which cause sporadic behaviour, including dropped calls, not answering calls, turning off, erasing all user memory (factory reset), etc. T-Mobile logo T-Mobile is a multinational mobile phone operator. ... Variants include the h6340 which is sold in parts of Europe without a camera through normal distribution points- hence is not carrier specific. The h6365 has identical specifications to the h6315 but it is not signed to a carrier. [edit] HP iPAQ Mobile Messenger hw6500 series This iPAQ is the first Pocket PC phone to have built in Global Positioning System (GPS) capabilities with support for NMEA. When no GPS signal is available the device attempts to calculate its location by switching to cell triangulation. It has an integrated keyboard and unique 240x240 resolution. It may seem that the screen size can be an advantage regarding the standby time, but there are reports that actually many software products do not work on this device as they should because they were created for the standard 320x240 resolution (menus are not fully visible, hidden buttons- sort of problems).

Triangulation can be used to find the distance from the shore to the ship. ... It has two card slots SD SDIO and mini-SD and like its predecessor the h6300, two versions are/were available: one with camera and one without. Most notably, compared to the previous model, this unit does not have internal support for WiFi.

	IPAQ - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (2312 words) iPAQ presently refers to a Pocket PC and personal digital assistant first unveiled by Compaq in April 2000; the name was borrowed from Compaq's earlier iPAQ Desktop Personal Computers. In June 2003, HP announced a new line of iPAQ's, and sent the h3xxx series to pension, now there is a h1xxx budget line, a h2xxx consumer line, and a h5xxx professional line. This iPAQ is the first Pocket PC phone to have built in Global Positioning System (GPS) capabilities with support for NMEA. HP iPAQ 2215 and iPAQ 2210 Pocket PC, PDA Reviews by Mobile Tech Review (2450 words) The 2210/2215 is the first iPAQ with an integrated CF slot and SD slot, and at a relatively modest $399, it packs a lot of bang for the buck. The 2215 cannot accept iPAQ expansion sleeves, but for many users that won't matter since the CF sleeve is probably the most necssary and popular, and you won't need it for the 2215. While not as small as the tiny iPAQ 1940, it is significantly smaller and ligher than other iPAQ models and the Toshiba e750 and Dell Axim X5 which are its competitors.
