Shortly after its announcement, however, JVC cancelled the introduction of the two models, supposedly in favour of next-generation models already in development at the time. Now it appears that JVC has halted all further development of PDA products, as a spokesperson today confirmed to infoSync World that the manufacturer has postponed its plans for the handheld market 'indefinitely'.
