Pictures and Details on Palm Treo 800w at Sprint
Posted by Ed Hansberry in "Pocket PC Hardware" @ 07:00 AM
"We're not sure where our tipster got these pictures (nor are we going to ask), but they appear to be screens from the Treo 800w's specification and knowledge training documentation. New tidbits include a 333 Mhz processor, 4.4.1 x 2.28 x 0.73-inch dimensions, 320 x 320 pixel screen, and a weight of 4.94 ounces. Windows Mobile 6.1 looks to be in full-force, the camera shoots at 2 MP, and the USB port is 2.0."

Engadget has a few other images and specs on the device. It has the Sprint logo and should go for around $249.99 with a contract. MMS is missing though. You can of course send pictures via email, but to receive pictures, it seems you'll get an SMS with a link you can click on and view in Pocket IE. I might be upset about that except the MMS clients for Windows Mobile are horrible, so using the MMS client or having to click a link and view in PIE has about the same suckage factor. I am befuddled as to why MS doesn't just write a decent MMS client and ditch the third party client that most carriers are licensing.
