We announced last week you could pre-order the highly anticipated iPAQ h6315 from T-Mobile. This is the iPAQ co-created by T-mobile and HP that does GSM/GPRS voice, WiFi and Bluetooth all in one package. One question that may arise is "just how well do these different connection technologies work together?" I mean, are we gonna have to soft reset the device to switch from WiFi to Cell to make a call? Will Bluetooth bleed over into our GSM connection to interfere with our calls? Well, infoWorld has penned an article describing how easily you can switch between the protocols. In fact, they describe it as "seamless switching" between wide-area cellular networks and WLANs. "Incorporating seamless switching between wide-area cellular networks and WLANs required quite a bit of work on the part of HP, Microsoft, and T-Mobile said Scott Ballantyne, vice president of business services at T-Mobile.
“We had to change our network,” Ballantyne said.
Until now, the wireless carrier’s network and Windows Mobile 2004 OS allowed only one IP connection at a time.
Now, with the changes in place, when the device discovers a Wi-Fi network, it pulls down the IP address of that network and puts it into standby mode. As soon as the session on GPRS finishes — for instance, when a new Web page is opened or the screen is refreshed — the system will abandon the GPRS and load the faster Wi-Fi network. "
This guy is talking about Windows Mobile 2004, does he knows anything about our world?
In another hand... is this means that when you are connected to GPRS you wont be able to use WiFi? According to what he says the PPC will find the new WiFi connection and will terminate the GPRS connection but.. what about the case when the WLAN is not connected to Internet, will the 6300 still connected to both WLAN?
The excuse is always we buy everything for them... A PPC is for your wife... to make your life more balanced so you can pay more attention to her...
It works
I put a new stereo in my boat, so my wife could hear the music from shore... see I am a giving person.
That's good, Knelson. Problem is I just got my h5555. I need an excuse for the PPC phone hybrid. Of course, I already have the Siemens SX56 PPC phone so this one will be a trick. hmmm...
so you can respond to her calls quicker and be better prepared to address her needs, note the tasks she needs you to perform and make sure your schedule only coordinates hers.
