 Sounds like this is the famed lowrider that will be priced at $199. I'm curious as to the differences between the 650 and 680 considering the price points are about the same. Ah hell, it's 30 more, it must be better. -Chris |

| As has been the history, the leaky faucet is now a become a full blown pipe. Images were found at PalmGear revealing both a Cingular branded Treo 680 and a Cingular branded Treo 750 (a Cingular version of the 750v). Check out the blog entry for more details and glorious imagery of the Treo 680 and Treo 750. I love excitement on a Saturday morning. And for the lazy.. here's the 680.  |

 | So even though its not ground breaking, I am glad to see some of the new Palm stuff making its way to Cingular I would venture to guess that you take a stock 650, add High speed data radio, ptunes, and drop it in a 750 case and you get . . . . . . . . 680
