...according to this article:

That does it for me. I was thinking P800 but I'm going to have to wait and get this beauty. The BT/WiFi version will be the perfect match to the T68:

- use the cooler-looking small form factor of the T68 for calls
- no ugly keypad flip or feedback-less virtual flip
- leave the PDA at home if you don't need it
- use the WiFi for fast, free Internet access at home or office
- Pocket PC has vastly broader application base than Symbian
- bigger screen, more resolution, better design on the new iPaq
- no ear smudges on the PDA screen
- no holding a brick to your head
- more developer options/support for Pocket PC OS
- and it's supposedly cheaper than the P800!

To each his own, but these are my deciding factors.

I agree with most of your reasons... BUT...

We use a number of iPaqs in our office and they have ALL had some sort of problem over the last year or so.
Fail to sync
Damaged connectors
Dust under screen
Hanging and crashing

They look nice, but they are far from problem free.

My brother has one for about a month now,
no problems what so ever, windows 2002, everything is perfect, i like the colours, msn messanger, ie, themes, windoes medai player + skins, ver nice + java , poly ring's .... etc ....etc
The only problem is that it's very sensitive to noise to the other person if your using the loud speaker
