The new HP iPaq GSM Phone

by

I checked out the new HP iPaq h6315 GSM Pocket PC mobile phone on friday. I was walking by a T-Mobile store and decided to see if the had it. I was able to get a side by side feel from the new iPaq and my Palmone Treo 600. I didn’t get any pictures but my original assessment seems accurate. The iPaq is allot bigger. It is more the size of the old Treo 270, but a bit taller. It is just as wide. That was what made the 270 not comfortable to hold when talking. The screen was big and nice, but I have doubts about the removable keyboard. I will probably wait for the new Treo to come out. Whenever that may be. My luck it will be another 6 months before it is for T-Mobile. Of course since there is no official release date, it is anyone’s guess how long it will be before the new Treo’s hit the stores.

AJ will be getting the new HP iPaq phone this week, so I will check it out in detail later this week. Hopefully I will get a picture of it with my Treo. It will remind me why I won’t spend $600 (I already have T-Mobile service so it will be more than a new activation) on a larger pone.

Day In The Park

by

Today I walked around Central Park with Amanda & Rich. We originally went out foraging for food. We found a nice burger place on 86th & Lex that has mini hamburgers. It was good. We then walked to the park. We saw the big lake. We walked on the jogging path. We even hung out near the botanical gardens.

The weather was nice, so it wasn’t so bad being out doors. We hung out in the shade and it was breezy. It was a perfect day. The park is always nice on a weekend (holiday). The garden was cool. I live less than a mile from it, and I had no clue it was there. Amanda is good at finding cool places.

On the walk back to my place we hit the Museum of NYC. We checked out the gift shop. We didn’t see any exhibits. We didn’t want to pay, and we were already tired from walking all over. Also on the way back I saw where the Metro North trains come aboveground on Park Ave. it is cool watching the trains go by.

I am glad I put my sneakers on because my feet would really be hurting right now if I did all that walking in my Doc Martins. We finished off the afternoon by just hanging by my place. Amanda needs to come out and visit again when she has a day to kill. I am going to have her help me decorate my place.

Now the work week begins soon:( I liked my 4 days off. I don’t want to work again.
