HP iPAQ h2200 Series Gets FCC Approval

“About a month ago, a rumor surfaced that Hewlett Packard was in the process of developing the iPAQ h2200 series Pocket PC. The FCC has granted permission for the release of these devices, which will offer built-in Bluetooth wireless networking and SDIO support.

At this point, it appears that there will be at least two models in the h2200 series, one of which will have integrated Bluetooth and one which won’t. Bluetooth is a short-range wireless networking standard used to allow devices to connect together without wires. It’s frequently used to allow a handheld to use a mobile phone as a modem to connect to the Internet. An increasing number of Bluetooth-enabled devices are coming on the market, such as GPS receivers, hard drives, and keyboards.

The screen used with the h2200 series will be a transflective TFT LCD with 64K-color support. It will have .24-dot pitch and 240 by 320 pixels. ”
