Leaked: New HP Communicator before year’s end? (HP OAK)
According to today’s Wall Street Journal, HP is getting ready to launch a brand new Communicator before the year’s end. Could this be the previously leaked HP OAK that we heard about at the beginning of this year?
From what I can tell, the HP OAK looks to be an HP touchscreen version of the HTC S710 (Vox) — with two keyboards (digital and side-sliding QWERTY). It’s rumoured to have HSDPA, GPS, WiFi, and Bluetooth, running Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional.

iPAQ 910c
HP’s iPaq 910c Business Messenger is clearly designed with corporate executives and their IT staff in mind. HP’s tricked-out GPS hardware was not only extremely accurate; it got satellite fixes very fast. Instead of waiting the typical two minutes or more for an initial fix, the iPaq 910 did it in 15 seconds. HP’s new offering is also slightly longer than its BlackBerry counterpart and slightly deeper. Still, the iPaq 910c is comfortable to hold and has a more solid feel compared to the Curve.
HP’s newest addition to its line of Windows Mobile Pocket PC products is the HP iPAQ rx4000, offering users an all-in-one productivity device that provide robust connectivity options and the processing muscle to cope with today’s demanding tasks. It must be noted that the rx4000 is not a Phone Edition device and will focus more on the multimedia aspects. HP’s Oak makes an appearance in the relentless binge of new handset madness that is the Vodafone roadmap. The HP Oak delivers many of the baubles we’ve come to expect from Windows Mobile devices, things like 7.2 Mbps HSDPA, quad-band GSM, qwerty keyboard, a touchscreen, and even GPS have found there way in.
HP is also introucing the 614, another Windows Mobile device (this one presumably with a touchscreen), plus GPS, WiFi, and HSDPA. The company is also introducing the 314, a GPS navigator with custom HP software, and the iPAQ 214 and 114 two Windows Mobile-based PDAs without any phone functions (though they have WiFi, allowing for VoIP. The iPaq 910c has not been picked up by a U.S. Plus, it’s going to face stiff competition from brands like HTC, Samsung, and Motorola, which offer similar features and performance and for less with carrier support.”
The iPAQ 910c boasts a long list of high-end features it’s a modern-looking QWERTY bar phone with a very good keyboard, 3G 7.2Mbps HSDPA, GPS, WiFi and Bluetooth. The iPAQ 910c is fast for a Windows Mobile Pro device and one-handed operation is a breeze for common tasks. Unlocked for use with any GSM carrier.

An update on their troubles
If you are a fan of Windows Mobile, I'm sure Coolsmartphone.com is on the list regularly read, it's on me, but they have terrible problems with an attack at the end of Google have been pretty much knocked them from the Internet . They each search that Google returns a page Coolsmartphone is a terrible message to them and said: "This site may harm your computer." Leigh has worked tirelessly to address the problem and now reports all goes well. You can read the detailed explanation after the break.
OK, a quick update on how things with the site. Google now have pretty much knocked us from the Internet. They each search that Google returns a page Coolsmartphone is a terrible message to them and said: "This site may harm your computer." If you visit us in Firefox, you get a really horrible red page warning you about us and they will refuse to load the page, unless you ignore it.
We are now 100% sure that we have found and the problem is eliminated. I would like forum member "sTeDay" for his help tonight, plus all the messages of support, help and concern you have to send through - it is very much appreciated. Although we have removed the problem I am slightly at a loss to explain how they got there. A message here on the first page was changed and an IFRAME had been added to the end of it pulling code from a nasty Web site that tries to infect your machine with EXE files from various other websites. Somehow it had also changed the forum post in connection with this same story, which is a little confusing, as our internal systems would not normally fire changes in the forum automatically.
The problem could also arise in the ads on the side of the site, so I have removed every single Flash and Java display. This obviously has a massive financial hit for us, but I'm well aware of the problems you guys were out and I want to make sure that it does not happen again. I have e-mails and comments from people who have had to re-format their machines and start again. Although I personally believe that anyone with the Internet should be an anti-virus (AV) system, I would like to personally apologize to all those who either do not update their AV, has not made use or AV-AV, that missed the Download trial.
If there is someone out there experience with this hack (which came from places klikvp.com among others), please give me a shout at gears@coolsmartphone.com. Although I have removed the offending code, I'm not able to handle any type of SQL injection in each log file on our main server, so I'm assuming it's a different kind of hack. Even if someone has any contact with Google, I would love to hear from you - I've just filled in a form in their webmaster tools and got this answer ...
"If we find that it no longer violates our webmaster guidelines, we will index the site. Please allow several weeks for the renewed inquiry."
Several weeks? It took only a few days to us and black block Firefox / Google chrome access. Several weeks would leave us dead in the water, so please help if you can. : (
Thank you for your patience during this time. If any of our friends on other Windows Mobile sites wants to this story, please feel free.
Thank you. gears@coolsmartphone.com
Update - Thanks to everyone for your donations. I have in this bottom you should want to help, while we diagnose the problem. I've just done a thorough check with rkhunter and the good news is we have not had hacked into the server so it looks like an SQL injection of a sort possible.

HP Oak, Silver smartphone rumors resurface
HP is nearing the release of two important touchscreen phones previously only hinted at earlier in the year, according to a pair of reports. The Wall Street Journal now hints that one of HP's first true touchscreen-focused iPAQ smartphones is due in Europe as soon as two months from now; the report directly corroborates a leak early in the year of the Oak that reveals a hybrid touch and keyboard design intended for Vodafone. The earlier and more specific leak would give the phone a side-slider design with 7.2Mbps, HSDPA-based 3G as well as GPS and Wi-Fi.
As with recent iPAQ smartphones, the Oak is also said to be running Windows Mobile 6.1. The newspaper adds that the phone should be available worldwide after the European release but doesn't mention more specific dates or prices. The earlier leak had initially suggested a September launch at ₤260 in the UK (now $461) but now may change given the apparent delay.
Separately, Engadget has also obtained the first photos of the Silver, a candybar-style parallel to the Oak. It would lose the touchscreen and revert to a SureType-style keyboard while keeping the advanced 3G and Windows Mobile foundations of the larger and likely more costly Oak. It too is also slated for Vodafone, though its originally projected ₤250 ($443) price and July release date have since become inaccurate. A US launch is very likely for the Silver.

HP to release touchscreen smartphone
The WSJ.com reports that Hewlett Packard will release a new smartphone in the next two months, aiming to grow its device business beyond corporate users. The device will debut in Europe, and will be sold by a mobile carrier in retail stores.
Hopefully, as WMPowerUser hopes, “the device will be the HP Oak, which looks pretty tasty, and hopefully the device is more polished and less buggy than the trouble-some HP 910c.”
Fellow PC manufacturers Dell and Acer have been hinting their own plans to enter the smartphone industry. Acer even has been confirmed to start its brand new smartphone debut in Q1 2009.

HP To Release Touchscreen Smartphone
The new device will have a touchscreen and keypad and will use Microsoft Corp.’s Windows Mobile 6.1 operating system, say people briefed on the plan. It will be able to send and receive emails, and access the Internet.
The phone is the latest version of H-P’s iPaq devices. H-P, which has been selling iPaq-branded devices since it acquired personal-computer maker Compaq Computer Corp. in 2002, primarily focused earlier iPaqs on businesses and typically didn’t sell them through retail stores.
This is an interesting move, as PC manufacturers seem to be hopping on the smartphone train of late. Look for Dell and Acer to enter the market as well, possibly as early as Q1 2009.
Reports have it that Hewlett Packard is working on a new smartphone for release before the end of the year. The new touchscreen smartphone initially dubbed the ‘HP Oak’ will be initially sold in Europe by carriers in their retail stores. Initial reports on this new device came out earlier this year… But it sounds like HP has finished their development and is getting ready to ship the device.
