Dont wanna trun this into a TreoCentral kinda site, but I will throw my hat into this discussion here some...
Not really revolutionary except for the RAM and the specs given on DBCache size (greater than 10MB) these two items alone will make for a better device than what the 650 is in terms of being a data device. I dont know that I like the move of the buttons, but sinice they were going to use the same design as the 700w, they had to do something. I think it might prove to be a better move; things tend to happen like that once you unlearn a bit.
Should be a lot more efficient with battery life because of a newer processor running at the same speed. I'd imagine that system performance would be snappier too.
My personal hopes would be that a new version of Blazer would bring functionality similar to that which was demoed with the PalmSource 3 web browser (shrink mode-like Opera but readable; full compliancy to web specs; and tabbed browsing).
I imagine that some of the bits of the interface may change some, hopefully including a today screen that is more functional (license PocketCraft's Facer and that would be the case).
All in a a very interesting move. I dont know if it would be enough for me to move from my 650, but it is tempting enough at this stage of rumors to make me consider that much. |
