Star Review: HP iPaq h2210 as an Affordable VoIP Mobile Solution
Linked by Eugenia Loli-Queru on Mon 3rd Apr 2006 17:17 UTC
PDAs, Cellphones, Wireless Geeks.com is selling the HP iPAQ h2210 for less than $220 this week, with a... 3600 mAh extra battery and a 128 MB SD card. While this model is pretty old now it is still very capable with its 400 Mhz processor and so we thought that we could review it from the point of view of an affordable SIP phone (Ekiga, Gizmo, Stanaphone, FreeWorldDialup, Skype). Read more for our findings and a quick rundown of its amazing battery life times!

First of all, Windows works well on this device.
Regarding Linux, there is an h22xx port going on AS WE SPEAK. Check the mailing list here: http://www.handhelds.org/hypermail/h2200-port/current/
However, the specific model doesn't work well yet, but I expect it to do so by the time Familiar Linux 0.8.3 gets released in a few weeks.

I'm sure it does. Just asking in case I find that I don't like Windows CE or whatever they call it these days. Plus maybe Linux would have a bluetooth implementation that supports headsets.
