Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Smartphones, Features, Handhelds,

We just got our hands on a Palm Treo Pro, which we are in the process of ~~playing with~~

reviewing. Before we hit you up with the review of this Windows Mobile 6.1-based smartphone, we figured we’d get you a bunch of images of the good. One thing I can say for certain, I like the build quality of the device, and it feels nice and solid in the hand. Stay tuned for the full review, but for now, enjoy our Palm Treo Pro unboxing gallery.

Foleo Bites the Big One

Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Accessories, Corporate News, Handhelds, Misc. Tech, Portable Audio / Video,

Palm CEO Ed Colligan has announced that the Foleo is to be no more. He says that his company will concentrate more of its efforts on their next generation platform and the smartphones that will be a part of it. He said that

when they work on Foleo II it will be on that same platform rather than a separate one.

Although it is costing Palm about a $10 million loss, Colligan mentioned that it was a small price to pay to

~~correct a mistake~~

move forward. We recall wondering why the Foleo was larger than the device it was created to work with, so perhaps with this decision Palm has finally created a kind of symmetry in their part of the technological world.

Sprint Launches Treo 700wx

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Smartphones, Handhelds,

Sprint has finally unleashed the Treo 700wx today, which we have all but been waiting for over the past few weeks. The Treo 700wx sports EV-DO/1xRTT, 128MB NVRAM, 240x240 touchscreen, XScale 312MHz processor, a full QWERTY keyboard, Bluetooth support, and the standard 1.3 megapixel camera. It runs Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC edition, and is, you know, a Treo. The 700wx sports double the RAM of the Treo 700w on Verizon, but everything else is pretty much in line. Of course, Sprint has had the Treo 700p available for a while now - but if you just gotta have that Pocket PC goodness, now is your chance if you are on Sprint.
