Treo 700p Release Confirmation?

[chris]

As with most rumors, this come via Gadgets on the Go via TreoCentral. Someone noticed the software compatibility drop down over on Palm's software site has the Treo 700p listed. This is either a "bad joke" by an employee or a sign of things to come!

I checked the Palm site, and that reference is not there now.

Almost every company has done the web "slip up" and quick retraction for a forth coming new product.

I would guess it's going to be coming out very soon.

Nice. I'll have to go look at it when it comes out to see what the differences are between it and the 650.

Yeah, I just read about this on CNet.com. Can it be true? But what about a GSM version?

[chillywilly]

I think for now, it will be exclusive to Sprint, although there was Verizon talk, too.

As far as GSM, Cingular and T-Mobile ended up getting the 650 after Sprint and Verizon had it.

I think that's when it will be announced but not necessarily be the date that it's actually available to buy.

I agree. I think we'll see an announcement on the 15th, with the 700p available maybe two weeks after that. Palm generally has a quick turnaround on availability after an announcement.
