H-P OFFERS NEW HANDHELD PC

U.S.-based Hewlett-Packard will launch a new handheld computer next month around the world. Called the H-P Jornada 820, the machine will allow users to type continuously for 10 hours without recharging the battery. In addition, it features a 190 MHz processor and a 56Kbps modem for quick access to e-mail and the World Wide Web. The Jornada 820 weighs just over two pounds. In Canada, H-P will begin promoting the computer in the first quarter of next year. Although advertising plans have not been confirmed, the campaign will likely use print ads and airport advertising. Canadian advertising for H-P is handled by Saatchi & Saatchi Advertising of Toronto. BenchMark Communications Inc. of Toronto handles Canadian PR.
