Is there a new treo pda phone coming out soon?

Question

I'm thinking of buying the latest treo model out right now but it doesn't have wifi and I would have to buy a wifi card for it. I heard that the new treo will have wifi. Should I wait? When is the release date?

Answer 1

Yes there is two models coming out. The dates are not to clear but there are estimated time frames.

First there is the Treo 800w, it a CDMA windows mobile 6.1 pro(touch screen) device. It has wifi, 3G, some sort of navigation support(either it is GPS or through the carriers service). It has a full list of bluetooth support and a microsd card. It has either a 1.3mp camera or 2mp camera(conflicting reports), 128mb of ram and 256mb of rom(space not sure how many free). Recent reports say Q3 on Verizon, but there a few reports that say it should be out some time in the summer on Sprint to nothing is clear yet.

Then there is the 850. Suppose to have similar specs except the 850w is suppose to a GSM device. Yhe leaked pictures look different from the leaker 800w pictures but both are suppose to beta model and not fully final designs. A while back there was a leaked Vodaphone road map, which said that this device should be out during the summer time frame. Not sure if that is still the case and if that includes a North American release.
