I was told by my local cell carrier Verizon that they only support CDMA devices. I like HP devices. What HP iPAQ devices are CDMA compatable???

It depends on what you want to do. If you want a Pocket PC Phone Edition, then the current IPAQ line will not work - they are all GSM/GPRS.

Verizon is currently carrying the XV6600, which is a CDMA EV-DO Pocket PC Phone Edition. We have it here with Telecom New Zealand and you can check our review.

If you want the Pocket PC to talk to a CDMA mobile phone, then any iPAQ should work, either via Infrared or via Bluetooth (if you can find a Verizon phone with Bluetooth).
