New Palm Treo 700p is Out
Palm has just announced the Treo 700p. The p means that it based on the Palm OS, rather than Windows CE. I never upgraded to the 650, because I had a Treo 600. I loved the 600 so much, that there just wasn’t enough goodness (other than the bluetooth) to convince me to upgrade. But……now my Treo 600 has some miles on it and has been beat up. I’m ready to make the jump.
Engadget has the announcement and specs:
The latest step in unifying the Treo family as a hardware platform, the 700p (like the 700w) features EV-DO, 312MHz Xscale CPU, 128MB flash memory (60MB usable), 1.3 megapixel camera, Bluetooth, and SDIO. Unlike the 700w, however, it works it with the same 320 x 320 resolution screen as the 650
PalmInfoCenter has a preview:
The Palm Treo 700p is a further refinement of what made the Treo 650 a productive and intuitive smartphone. It features a slightly refined hardware design and a large number of software, multimedia and usability improvements. The 700p is also the first Palm OS based smartphone to take advantage of high speed EVDO wireless networks.
Palm has the official announcement:
The Palm® Treo™ 700p smartphone delivers everything you need in one go-anywhere, Palm OS® device. It combines a smarter phone with wireless email and messaging, built-in web browser, and rich media capabilities — all at blazing fast broadband-like speeds…
Enjoy the gadgety goodness.
