Wavecom provides HP iPAQ h6300 with wireless tech

Wavecom SA has announced today that its wireless technology will be used in the HP iPAQ Pocket PC h6300, a personal communications device with integrated 3-way wireless capabilities. The device offers Bluetooth 1.1 and Wi-Fi (802.11b) GSM voice service and GPRS wireless networking.

Wavecom's WISMO allows users to access global voice and data wireless networks. The P5186 module provides the h6300 two critical connections: a data connection to corporate networks that offer continuous access to global Internet-based content and a voice connection to GSM voice providers worldwide. Wavecom's P5186 module supports Class-10 GPRS/GSM data, about twice as fast as dial-up service, which enables iPAQ h6300 users to send and receive emails in transit, explained Wavecom.
