Telus launches Palm Treo 755p
You've got company, Sprint! It may not be available with Verizon just yet, but Palm has found another carrier to launch its newest and shiniest Garnet-based Treo, the 755p. This time around, Canada's Telus plays host, offering the device for $229.99 Canadian (about $217) on a whopping three-year contract (yes, we know three-year contracts are the norm in Canada, but our jaw still drops a little every time we hear it). Meanwhile, folks looking to rock out contract-free may do so for $549.99 Canadian, a shade over $519. The device is a Canadian exclusive for Telus, so don't bother looking elsewhere if you're north of the border and Garnet is your poison of choice.[Via Slashphone]

Seriously, Verizon, WTF? Get this thing out already!

Why would a Verizon subscriber want a 755p, Tytn, Touch, or any other updated device...They have "the network" which is enough. Oh yeah, they also have V-Cast music which allows them to pay $2 for songs that other people can get for .99. Honestly with V-Cast and "the network" you think people would shut up already.

Your rant makes no sense at all. VCast has nothing to do with a 755p, wtf are you even talking about? V Cast Music applies to regular cell phones.
Plenty of people would LOVE a 755p for better internet, outlook syncing, 3rd party apps... don't be such a fool dude.

The sarcasm train has left the station and you are not on it. Because it would appear you are a fifth grader reading at a first grade level I will translate this post for you.
"I too would love a 755p, but for some reason Verizon thinks its customer's should be happy with "the network" and V-Cast, and they needlessly delay releasing phones that others have had for months."

Sarcasm is a little harder to convey on the internet without helpful things like facial expression and voice inflection to help us detect, so can the arrogance for 2 seconds.
