HP iPAQ 100 series unboxed, twisted, turned... and dropped

The market for non-phone PDAs continues to decline, but that doesn't mean new products won't impress. After watching the Pocket PC Thoughts video unboxing and overview, I think HP has a nice product in their iPAQ 100 series device. Nice enough to turn the tide towards phone-integrated devices? No, but for folks that don't want the phone, this looks to be a solid offering. The device has the same rubberized feel that I like on my Dash and the screen looks very generous in size; it takes up about 80% of the front face. The iPAQ looks to be as thin as the Dash and iPhone as well, yet it's crammed with WiFi, Bluetooth a 3.5mm headset jack and a full sized SD card slot. Combine all that with a zippy 624 MHz CPU and it's a solid little package. Literally solid. You can tell when Jason drops it accidentally and it keeps on tickin'!
