Finally what I've been waiting for! Palm support should mean seamless iSync support. The 320x320 screen is the biggest problem with the current Treo 600 so that's solved. Bluetooth is the second problem and that's solved. Throw in a megapixel camera with video and I'll be buying this the second it's released!

Here, Here!

Yes, this is the phone. It looks like verizon will be using this phone too. I'll buy it as soon as I can. What was the starting price for the 600? I wonder what we can expect to pay for the revamp in the States?

Can't wait to control VLC through bluetooth on my phone. And get rid of my buggy as hell Kyocera 7135.

Hmmm...just got a new phone, but I may have to consider that one when it comes out. That's an impressive collection of features...

I hope they get voice dialing in there. That's been a glaring ommision in the 600. To not be able to dial by voice when in the car is painful....

Just got a Sony Ericsson P900 for my birthday. I can't imagine why anyone (or at least any mac user) would buy the Treo given that it's still going to require the palm conduits to sync everything. My Dad is using a Treo and it is not nearly as well done as the P900.

You would use a Treo for other PDA functions..
For ex., I use one for..
Banking (Pocket Quicken, with mac Sync)
GPS Navigation..
Docs to go
Games
etc...

Some stuff you cannot do with a P900

Yes. That would be cool. I would almost buy one if it had Bluetooth, BUT, it is still one big brick of a phone that is a pain to carry around. I had a Treo 300 for a while, and the great features were nice, but the size got to me. But I guess if you don't use a laptop, it would be a nice alternative.

Bluetooth, great!

Now if they could only come up with a version without the friggin camera but thinner and a bit cheaper. I'd really like to replace my 180.
