I found that random reboots are often caused by software. In particular, a piece of software called LightWav caused my phone to reset when getting calls quite often. I got rid of the software, and got a phone that worked!]]>Apr 5th 2006 10:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/Apr 5th 2006 10:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/Apr 5th 2006 11:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/
A lot cheaper. $15 will give you unlimited ev-do on Sprint (plus your basic voice package). Verizon is upwards of $40 a month I believe.

Plus, Sprint's speed may be a lot better...may, take this with a grain of salt:

Sprint's Data plan is by far cheaper than most. I just got in on a fantastic deal though. The SERO(Sprint Employee Referral Offer) program. http://www.sprint.com/sero

500 Anytime
Unlimited Vision or Power Vision
Unlimited Picture Mail
and more

$30 a month. Yes that is $30 a month.

You need a sprint employee's email address. I just went to sprint store and asked one of the guys for his business card. Worked like a charm. They also offer a $50 plan with 1250 minutes. And I think another one too, maybe unlimited. This expires 6/30/06 i think. So if the 700p comes out, you may have a chance and get this awesome plan. ]]>Apr 5th 2006 12:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/Apr 5th 2006 12:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/
Windows Mobile doesn't doo 320x320 like Palm OS does, so the next supported resolution is 480x480. Not only would that be damn hard to read, but it would consume 4X the power that the 700w's 240x240 screen does, meaning shorter battery life. Plus, 480x480 would likely be a custom screen for a very small number of units, making each quite expensive. For these reasons, I doubt any WM-powered Treos will have higher than 240x240 (or maybe QVGA) screens in the near future (within 3 years).]]>Apr 5th 2006 1:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/
That company dissapoints me on so many levels.]]>Apr 5th 2006 1:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/
I have Sprint and I honestly cannot wait for this thing with EVDO. For others, I could see the upgrade having a lot less value.

oh yeah, #1 ("I hope they get their act together"): Treo sales to represent 74 percent of Palm's revenue for last quarter. Sounds like whatever act they got going is doing just fine.]]>Apr 5th 2006 2:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/Apr 5th 2006 2:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/Apr 5th 2006 2:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/Apr 5th 2006 10:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/

LOL. Symbian is a good OS, though it's the smartphone OS that acts like a features phone IMHO - no touchscreen and i like touchscreens. It is also hellishly painful to write code for and compatibility from say, one series 60 phoen to another - let alone one symbioan phone to another - is a problem. different versions of the underlying OS and different iterations within each ui layer as well as different ui layers (s60,s80,UIQ) make things a pain.]]>Apr 6th 2006 9:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/http://www.palm.com/us/products/smartphones/treo700p/ into your browser, there is a blank placeholder page.

On my Treo 700w this is 3 steps.

1) Hold down "ok" button to bring up program list
2) Select program to stop
3) Hit stop]]>Apr 6th 2006 11:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/Whatta hell this aerial is doing outside the body?

I am upset. ]]>Apr 6th 2006 11:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/Apr 6th 2006 2:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/palm-set-to-announce-treo-700p-for-sprint-on-may-15th/
If that were true, we should also expect to see the 700l released Real Soon Now(http://www.palm.com/us/products/smartphones/treo700l), and perhaps the crowd-pleasing 700pwl (http://www.palm.com/us/products/smartphones/treo700pwl) will actually one day reach fruition, too!
