We are sure HP doesn’t want to steal any thunder from the Microsoft/Palm deal that was announced today, but isn’t this perfect timing? ;) Today’s introduction includes the new HP iPaq rx1950 series, the iPaq hx2000 series Pocket PC and the HP Deskjet 460 mobile printer in addition to the Microsoft Windows Mobile 5.0 upgrade.

The iPaq hx2000 series includes the iPaq hx2790 Pocket PC which features in integrated biometric fingerprint sensor, while the rx1950 series comes with integrated WiFi 802.11b (sorry folks, no g here), Secure Digital memory expansion and a removeable battery back.

The new Deskjet 460 features 17 pages per minute black print speeds and 16 pages per minute color print speeds in a stylish and compact design.

I tried Belkin’s ridiculous new iPhone accessory — and I love it

Belkin Stand Pro with iPhone 14 Pro Max mounted in StandBy mode.

One of the most interesting iPhone accessories to debut this year is one that wouldn’t have been possible without Apple sneaking a new feature into iOS 17 last fall. While there’s no shortage of iPhone stands and mounts on the market, Belkin’s Stand Pro is something entirely different from the rest.

That’s thanks to Apple’s DockKit. It's a framework for accessory makers to create motorized stands that can follow you around the room. While the concept itself isn’t new, DockKit means that such stands can be significantly more affordable as they don’t need to pack in complex sensors. With DockKit, the iPhone does all the heavy lifting of figuring out where to point itself.

This is when Apple will finally release its new 2024 iPads

It's been a long time since Apple introduced a new iPad — October 2022, to be precise. In his latest newsletter, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reinforces his belief that Apple will finally reveal new iPads this spring, perhaps as early as the end of this month.

The Apple expert had previously noted that Apple would release new MacBook Airs and iPads at the beginning of the year. The first part of this promise came to fruition earlier this month when Apple revealed the M3 MacBook Air.

The iPhone 16’s huge redesign has leaked. Here’s what’s new

iPhone 15 Pro Max lying on the ground surrounded by leaves.

Apple fans might be in for a lukewarm surprise when Apple releases its next wave of iPhones this fall season. Over the past few weeks, numerous outlets — including 91 Mobiles and MacRumors – and independent insiders have shared alleged CAD-based renders of the entire iPhone 16 portfolio.

In 2024, it seems Apple will shower more love on the entry-point models, bestowing them with a slight design refinement on the rear shell. Leaks suggest the camera island on the iPhone 16—and likely its Plus variant as well—will get a pill-shaped makeover. Other changes are reported for the 16 Pro and Pro Max models. There's a lot to cover, so let's dig in.

On the current-generation iPhone 15 duo, we get diagonally arranged camera lenses positioned atop a square-ish glass bump. In the upcoming versions, Apple is reportedly replacing it with a vertical pill-like camera island, mirroring the look we first saw on the iPhone X.
