If you’ve been eyeing HP’s recently announced Voice Messenger and Data Messenger, you might want to take a glance at the latest Vodafone Magazine, as both phones are listed there, and they’re listed as exclusive to Vodafone. There isn’t any pricing information on the magazine, but the phones should be hitting stores sometime soon.

If you were wondering what HP’s upcoming Data Messenger and Voice Messenger phones would feel like, then take a few minutes to check out the hands on video. These Windows Mobile 6.1-powered phones will be available on Vodafone in Europe from next month onwards.

If you're looking for Windows Mobile phones that don't come from HTC or ASUS, you'll be happy to find that HP has entered the fray again, with its latest HP iPAQ DataMessenger and VoiceMessenger phones. The DataMessenger looks similar to HTC's Touch Pro handset, and features the slide-out QWERTY keyboard. Other features of the DataMessenger include a 2.8-inch display, Bluetooth 2.0+EDR, Wi-Fi, HSDPA, quad-band GSM, aGPS, 3.1 megapixel camera and microSD card expansion.

The VoiceMessenger will sport a 2.4-inch display, with a keyboard that looks like a SureType keyboard of sorts. The VoiceMessenger should be going for €399 ($532) on November 5th, the DataMessenger for €499 ($665) on November 22nd via Vodafone in the Netherlands. Do they look like they will be challenging the iPhone and HTC's devices?

Most of you probably thought that HP ditched its previously leaked HP Silver phone, though that doesn’t seem to be the case, as leaked live pictures of said phone have (surprisingly) shown up. While it doesn’t look as pretty as the original renderings, we’re sure it’ll look pretty when it’s officially released. This phone was rumored to be released on Vodafone and should sport the following specifications:

• Windows Mobile Standard 6.1
• HSDPA 7.2Mb/sec
• Wi-Fi
• GPS
• QWERTY keyboard
• 1100 mAh battery

There probably won’t be half as many people queuing up to buy this phone when compared to the iPhone 3G, but having said that, this phone is still quite interesting. HP’s iPAQ 910 Business Messenger Phone features HSDPA, WiFi and GPS. This phone is going for $499.99, and can be purchased and unlocked from HP’s online store

Trawling through the FCC website will show that the upcoming HP iPAQ 900 series smartphones in the works. No idea on when this will be released to Joe public and from which carrier will you be able to get it from, but AT&T is a very real possibility. With its release being pegged back for quite some time already, hopefully the specifications within won't be too outdated in this day and age.

HP has displayed a certain amount of America-phobia with their decision to cancel launch of the iPAQ 610 series in their native US. It's not so much the fact that they canceled the release, but how they canceled it ONLY in America that makes us a tad ticked off.

AT&T might have plenty of flaws when it comes to service, customer care, and network, but they definitely sit pretty at the top when it comes to bringing in new cellphones to the market. The HP iPAQ 910c "Business Messenger" is next up on their list with a model number FB070AA#ABA assigned to it. Will this be a renaissance for HP when it comes to the mobile handset business? After all, the more the merrier and it will be the consumer who wins out in the end ultimately. Features of the iPAQ 910c include a full QWERTY keyboard, tri-band HSDPA support, WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity, GPS navigation, a 3 megapixel camera and more. It will be powered by Windows Mobile 6 Professional. No idea on how much it costs nor when will it be released though.
