"Good but Not Great"
Pros: Several integrated functionalities; ALMOST has all that one can desire in one handheld
Cons: Very sluggish; Weak battery
Summary: I've been using this for almost a month now. While it has all the great features combined on one single unit I've been disappointed by its sluggish performance. It takes a few seconds for any application to load. The Palm Treo 650 is way superior in speed and performance. However if you are traditionally a Windows mobile user like I've been all along, you'll probably prefer hw6510 and might compromise on some slowness.
The battery performance of hw6510 is also weak and is not what hp claims it to be. I've followed HP's recommendations for maximizing battery efficiency but I get only 50% of its stated claims.
Except for these two drawbacks, everything else is fine. I won't call this as a great value for your money but just decent.
I won't call this unit as a must-buy but I'd rather recommend folks to wait a few months and see what HP comes up with next for improved performance and then make a decision to buy.
