Palm Treo Pro now available on Sprint’s website (updated)
A few days ahead of its expected launch date of January 25th and a few days behind our original scoop, the Sprint Treo Pro is now listed on Sprint’s website for a cool $249 after $200 in instant savings and a $100 mail in rebate. You’ll need to add an Everything plan, Data Premier add-on or PRO Pack add-on to be eligible for the rebate. The Treo Pro features a 320 x 320 touchscreen display, QWERTY keyboard, 2 megapixel camera, microSD expansion, WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS and Windows Mobile 6.1 professional. The Sprint version also includes Sprint-specific features including Sprint TV, Sprint Music store, Sprint Mobile sync and NFL Mobile Live access. If Windows Mobile is your thing and Sprint your carrier of choice, then break out that plastic and get on with some shopping. Sure it’s no Pre, but we’ve still got some time to kill before roll out.
Thanks, Ronald!
UPDATE: It looks like Sprint pulled the Treo Pro page. Did someone get a little trigger happy this morning?
UPDATE 2: Official word just came down from Sprint and the Treo Pro cameo was indeed a mistake. No firm release date was given so we’ll have to revert to the presumed date reported last month: This Sunday, January 25th.
Likely, you’d be mumbling to yourself behind that retail counter, bitchboy.
I really like Windows on my laptop.
I only briefly used Windows Mobile when I purchased the Palm Treo 700wx (erroneously) a few months ago; but I figured the pair would allow a seamless user experience.
MAIN SELLING POINT:
I really love the “Today Screen”–being able to get a snap shot without going into any applications. Does the Pre offer something similar?
What’s so bad about Windows Mobile?
(I honestly need to know before I buy)
The Pre does look nice, just wish it had a memory card expansion slot.
Please help. Thanks!
^WinMo is a very separate and unique subject versus Treos. One that is easily investigated in more appropriate forums.
Some Win Mo user will chime in, not everyone is be that way. I’ve played with BM’s Q9c and may get it when I get her the berry Centro, she’s waiting til the Pre comes out before she decides on it.
can any one tell me more about treo pro. Any diff between nokia e90/
