Verizon - Treo Forums

Waiting for the 650 on Verizon. Was checking their website today and noticed that both models of Treo 600 (with and w/o camera) were OUT OF STOCK.

Does this mean that the 650 is on its way?

When?

It should be VERY soon. Sign up for our newsletter and you'll be first to hear when the Verizon Treo 650 is being released.

Might you happen to have an ETA Chris?

I've seen some of those "other" websites saying 11 days. My rep tells me we'll have 10 day notice of shipments. I think it's safe to say that we've moved from "soon" to "real soon".:D I will let you know as soon as I hear anything. 11 days would be Monday, May 2nd. That sounds interesting.:rolleyes:

That's interesting as I was just on their site this evening and there is no mention that either is out of stock.

They are still in stock on their site. That's not surprising as I doubt Verizon would phase out the Treo 600. It's a nice low-cost option for those who do not need Bluetooth, Hi-rez screen etc found in the Treo 650. That being said, they have reduced prices recently -- and we've been able to reduce prices at the Treo Store to $199 for a Verizon Treo 600. Now, that's no great shakes compared to Cingular and the like, but it is a price move. I'd expect more price moves on the Treo 600 when the 650 arrives. I have nothing to back this up, but I don't imagine Verizon's strategy is any different from Sprint, Cingular, etc. New product = price breaks on old product. Slowly lower inventory on old product as new product is more in demand.
