Palm Treo 800w at Sprint

Apparently you could get your grubby little mits on the Palm Treo 800w last Friday at certain Sprint stores over a week ahead of the scheduled launch date. Obviously Sprint are so excited by the Treo 800w unit they couldn’t restrain themselves! On the surface the Treo 800w looks like a good deal

* Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1 Software
* GPS using Sprint Navigation
* Outlook email with support for AOL, Gmail, Earthlink and Yahoo accounts
* Bluetooth connectivity
* 802.11 Wi-Fi b/g connectivity
* Excel, Word and Powerpoint
* 2.0 Mp camera with 2x zoom
* MicroSD expansion slot (up to 8 GB)
* 320 x 320 res display
* 256 MB user memory
* 4.4″ x 2.3″ x 0.7″
* 5.0 oz
* Battery 1150 mAh
* integrated QWERTY keyboard

And with the price tag rocking in at US$250 after the instant savings offer and mail-in rebate plus a two year plan, the Treo 800w seems to have everything covered for a non-touchscreen unit. So if you prefer QWERTY buttons then the Treo 800w may just be the unit for you.

Palm Treo 755p Review

March 16th, 2008

We’ve been hearing all sorts of good things about the Palm Treo 755p, which is available on Verizon, Sprint and Alltel, so we thought we’d better check it out ourselves. Well this is what we found:


So PhoneArena aren’t overly impressed with the Treo and advise Sprint customers to check out the Centro. We must agree with PA on this, the Treo doesn’t look that great and there are better options out there offering the same features and functionality that will fit more comfortably in your, err, palm.
