HPs first attempt at a mobile phone with mobile PC features, rather than their usual iPaq handhelds, with he phone as an afterthought. This phone is extremely useful and comes with lots of useful features. Running windows mobile, it has all the things you'd come to expect, MS word, excel, powerpoint etc, Wireless, bluetooth, IR, etc. Classic iPaq games like bubblebreaker are included. You can set it to use VOIP (e.g. skype) when using the wireless network to cut communications costs.
I find this particulary useful when travelling to download my business emails using IMAP setup. The camera is fairly standard and voice activation is fairly difficult to get to work, unless you have a monotone voice!! There were some problems with battery time and the phone switching off but updates from HP seem to have fixed those.
Overall a very good first attempt by HP, excellent product, well priced, would not be without it

The HP iPAQ 514 Voice Messenger offers professionals a powerful, easy-to-use smartphone more
that combines the mobility of a cell phone, the capability of a handheld organizer, constant contact of a push e-mail device, and the power of an office phone system.
