Introducing iPhone

iPhone combines three amazing products — a revolutionary mobile phone, a widescreen iPod with touch controls, and a breakthrough Internet communications device with desktop-class email, web browsing, maps, and searching — into one small and lightweight handheld device. iPhone also introduces an entirely new user interface based on a large multi-touch display and pioneering new software, letting you control everything with just your fingers. So it ushers in an era of software power and sophistication never before seen in a mobile device, completely redefining what you can do on a mobile phone.

HP leaks Santa Rosa laptop specs aplenty

HP has already let out word of Santa Rosa upgrades to a couple of its business laptops, but it doesn't look to be stopping there, with details on a number of new Santa Rosa-based consumer laptops now also leaking out.

Those getting the upgrade in this batch include the HP Pavilion DV2500, DV6500, and DV9500, along with the HP Compaq Presario V3000 and V6000.

None of them are exactly on the ultra portable side of things, with screens ranging form 14 to 17 inches, along with 1.6GHz T5450, 1.8GHz T7100, or 2.0GHz T7300 processors, and integrated Intel GMA X3100 graphics on all but the Pavilion DV9500, which gets a slightly more powerful NVIDIA GeForce 8400M with 256MB of dedicated RAM.

As all the information is coming from leaked product manuals, there's no word on pricing or availability, but we'd expect that to be coming from HP before too long.

HP cooking Santa Rosa into Compaq 6510b and 6710b laptops

We've already seen the AMD versions of HP's new Compaq business laptops, the 6515b and 6715b, but now, thanks to a couple of leaked maintenance manuals, we've got word of Intel Santa Rosa versions of those two models: the 6510b and 6710b.

Just like their AMD brethren, both models come with a WWAN option, and the main difference between the two is the 14.1-inch WXGA screen in the 6510b and 15.4-inch WXGA or WSXGA+ screens in the 6710b.

Processors range from the 1.8GHz T7100 to the 2.4GHz T7700, and both stick to Intel GM965 integrated graphics.

Both laptops can be specced pretty much any way you can imagine, and can come with anything from Vista Business to SuSe Linux pre-installed.

No word on price or availability, but with all sorts of Santa Rosa-tops getting ready to launch, it shouldn't be much longer of a wait.
