BORIS:
#hp_ipaq_glisten HP Ipaq Glisten unlocked a great smart phone , sincerely , no one can fight for a low price , it is great price , but there?s an inconvenient , it came with AT&T , not a great company for an exelent hardware, in south america , we do not work with AT&T company.
That is why , I am looking for a Windows Mobile 6.5 Spanish versiion in order to sell it , in my opinion.
