Dieter has reported over at our sister site WMExperts that just like last year, another Palm smartphone has been outed at a Microsoft Keynote. Last year it was the Palm Treo 800w that showed up on the video screen. This year, what "appears to be" the Sprint Treo Pro, was shown on the video screen while Microsoft was showing Internet Explorer 6's flash support. We know that IE6 Mobile isn'...

Regardless of brand or model, one of the very first accessories many smartphone owners start rifling through the parts bin for is an extended battery of some sort. Unfortunately, Palm either doesn't know that or doesn't care, because a glance through its fresh round of accessories for the 800w and Pro doesn't reveal any. What we do see is a leather sleeve case for the 800w -- fancy!...

I was looking at a report today, plotting the price for a smartphone in the US. In May of last year, it was over $200. Now, after the Palm Treo 800w was discounted from $199 to $99 at Sprint (to leave room for the Treo Pro) and T-mobile cut the Pearl 8120 and 8220 to $79 (gulp!), the average price is $147. Anything that goes below $150 is, by definition, affordable to anyone. It is less than three...

I read over at our sister site WMExperts about a hopeful rumor that HTC is working on a CDMA version of the Treo Pro for Verizon and/or Sprint. Let's hope this will pan out to be true. I know that many of our forum members favor the looks of the Treo Pro over the Treo 800w, and some weren't too happy that the GSM crowd will be getting the Treo Pro. If the rumor is true, the CDMA crowd mi...

Ok, I really had to stretch my enthusiasm to create the title of this post... Today Palm has announced yet-another Windows Mobile Treo, called Treo Pro. They announced the Treo 800W a few weeks ago with Sprint, generating pretty much the same reaction from the media (none). The specs are what you would expect from a smartphone these days: wi-fi, GPS, keyboard, 3G (the 800W on CDMA, the PRO on GSM ...

You may have already seen our video of the Palm Pre launch event in New York City June 5th, but now we've got the real device in our hands for some "Chronicles of a Windows Mobile User Gone Web OS" action. Stay tuned for more coverage and comparisons on Palm's highly hyped and anticipated new device. Related Posts Review - Palm Treo Pro Review - Palm Treo 800w Palm Readying a CES Announc...

Dell is jumping into the smartphone retailer arena by offering an unlocked Palm Treo Pro for 475. They are also throwing in free shipping for a time. The Treo Pro is a slick device, but we still do not like the keyboard. Until they change the keyboard to resemble something like the Treo 800w, it's a deal breaker. If you're in the market for a Tr...

Palm is going smartphone only. No more PDAs according to Engadget Mobile. This is certainly the direction that the industry is headed, but sad none the less since Palm had made a namesake for itself in the handheld PDA industry. The newly revamped Palm website shows off the firm's current three models: the Treo Pro (still GSM only), the Treo 800w, and the Palm OS-powered Centro. Soon, let...

Seidio has released a new desktop cradle for the Treo 800w. The Seidio InnoDock Jr. Cradle features a microUSB connector for syncing and charging the Palm Treo 800w smartphone. The cradle design is highly functional, allowing you to dock your Treo 800w while in a case (compatible with most cases that have an open connector bottom and face out screen). The cradle is powered by your computer's ...
