Thats called a 'laptop' when you get the bigger screen.

Well, with the little H by the data arrows, this appears to be a GSM device. Maybe both. Who knows.

indeed, Palm is starting to slowly try and save it's hide in the smartphone race. now if thy can put something new on it that isn't WinMo on it....c'mon Palm, you pretty much defined the smartphone.
but a few things to add to put it over the top
-VGA screen (would be nice)
-High Speed data (HSDPA or EV-DO)
-GPS or A-GPS(nice option)

Gone the way of the blue and in with the black! I like it.Treo's where meant to be seen as a classy phone, this is gonna look cool.

I liked my old Treo which now sits on the bathroom vanity for the occasional gameplay in place of the traditional reading material. These days, however, I need more than a 2 megapexel camera to get me interested. My Nokia has a five witha xenon flash and Garmin GPS. Anything less would be a step backwards. The Treo form factor could easily accomodate more. I could never explain why it had to be so big and do so little. Not including 3G, well there's no excuse for that.

Somebody finally woke up over there in the style department. About time! And finally not fat! Beauty is only skin deep, but hopefully this is a sign of attractive new packaging that future good innards will slide into.

Gotta have that Palm OS. Seriously guys just update the old Palm OS if you have to.
timmyjoe42 @ Aug 15th 2008 12:08PM
Without the Palm OS, this is pretty much a touchscreen ahead of the Curve.
