HP, Cingular Team for New Pocket PC Phones

Cingular got some new hardware yesterday from Hewlett Packard for their users to play with. The HP iPAQ Pocket PC h6300 series offers users of this wireless provider three types of wireless capabilities.

The HP iPAQ h6300 series comes loaded with Windows Mobile 2003 software and incorporates GSM quad-band capabilities to make it usable around much of the globe. It addition, it also offers built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth wireless technologies for those times when a different type of unwired connection is desired. The Wi-Fi connection also has a special feature which automatically connects to the strongest network and automatically switches to an alternate if the primary drops.

In the memory area, the h6300 offers up 64MB of SDRAM, 64MB of ROM and up to 20MB of IPAQ File Store for the storage of critical data. This is all bolstered by an integrated Secure Digital card slot which supports SD and MMC type memory cards. Powering this Pocket PC handheld is a Texas Instruments OMAP 1510 processor.

Two models make up the h6300 series. Both have a 3.5-inch color LCD, weigh 6.7 ounces and sport a removable, snap-on thumb keyboard. The h6325 also houses a built-in VGA camera with 640 x 480 resolution and 8-bit color.

How to back up an iPhone using Mac, iCloud or PC

Backing up your iPhone will come in handy if you ever lose your phone or need to transfer contacts to a new device. Your iPhone probably contains thousands of pictures of places you visited, the moments you shared, and adorable pet photos you captured.

Backups are also a good way to restore your phone if something happens to iOS, or you're sick of dealing with a buggy beta. We recommend creating regular backups of your phone to avoid losing pictures, contacts, and any important files that you've downloaded.

OtterBox is one of those brands that everyone knows of because of its reputation for tough and durable phone cases and mobile accessories. During CES 2023, OtterBox announced a brand new case for the iPhone 13 and iPhone 14 series (including the iPhone 14 Plus, iPhone 14 Pro, and iPhone 14 Pro Max) that integrates a phone grip and MagSafe compatibility, without having to sacrifice one for the other. Say hello to the OtterGrip.

The OtterGrip comes in six different colors: Made Me Blush (pink), Blue Storm (navy blue and black), black, Chill Out (sage green), Poppies By The Sea (light blue with white poppies), and Peaches (orange). I was sent the Peaches color, which has what looks like abstract watercolor brush strokes on the back in shades of orange, pink, and gray against a white background. The accent color, which is used for the edges, front bezel, camera cutout, and the grip itself, is a beautiful peachy color — perfect for the upcoming spring season.
