When I first saw the initial treos I never imagined I would ever carry a phone that large. Granted they were a little bigger back then, and they have come a long way. Now with the release of the palm Treo 700w Smartphone with EVDO support I could finally see myself carrying one. These things are tiny, small enough to actually fit in a pocket and the EVDO is blazing fast. I have the keyocera KPC650 broadband card with Verizon service and I can’t tell the difference, most of the time, between it and my DSL line. I’ve always been a big fan of the palm OS but this device and it’s features may be the one to turn me to Windows.

Description:

A lot of folks said it would never happen, but here it is: a Palm device running Windows Mobile software. This isn’t just any device, either. It’s the latest version of Palm’s wildly popular Treo series of Smartphones. Everything that’s great about the Treo hardware is here, plus all the power of Windows Mobile 5.0. And to top it off, the Treo 700w is fully compatible with Verizon wireless’ EV-DO mobile broadband data service. Simply put, everything you need to do your work on the move, and at blazing speeds, has arrived.
