"Loaded smartphone"
Pros: Loaded with features, Pocket PC UI
Cons: Size (though average for a smartphone), battery life
Summary: In answer to 'where did you get this?", there are some advance units out on the market; I got mine at an HP customer event. This is a great phone if you like the Pocket PC interface. It is absolutely loaded with features. While it is large overall, it is comnparable in size to other smartphones (Treo, traditional Blackberry). The keyboard also has good tactile feel, comparable to other leading smartphones, and the unit is easy to navigate if you know the Pocket PC interface.
In my view, this is a very good / excellent smartphone with a great screen and it is a step up from the 6515. I also have a Treo 650, which I like as well. I think it's a matter of personal preference, and the previous reviewer (if he really had the 6900) apparently just prefers the PalmOne UI(though I am surprised he likes the Treo 600 better; I find it clunky compared to the 650).
My only real concern so far is the battery life (standby time), but that may be because I have everything turned on all the time. I have only had this unit a short time; will write a more comprehensive review after I have had time to play with it more.

Looking at the Moto 8125 and the hp 6900, not yet out here, and would like input. Want a phone and want to get to the internet and do my stuff. Thanks for any help

Could you tells us more about actual battery life and usage please?
Basically, I am waiting for the device which fully combines the cababilities of my wi-fi/bluetooth enabled PPC and my Blackberry and would like to see a device that could run for a couple of days on a charge.
