Palm Wanda is the Treo 500v successor

Wow, look at what Palm and Vodafone are bringing us now via the good people at Boy Genius Report, the Palm Wanda. Terrible name (please tell us it's just a codename!) aside, the specs are looking pretty decent with triband GSM and HSDPA covered as well as GPS for your navigational needs. The sheet also lists a "BURY" hardwire kit for car use and Windows Mobile 6.1 as the OS of choice. Launch is currently set for the September 2008 timeframe with the price set at roughly $350 -- though, of course that's a contract price.
















Wow BGR. You dun ****'d up all the manufacturers secret plans now.
Wanda gonna rock yo world.
If your world gets rocked by lackluster designs....
...heeeey fo' real though!
Oh come on, does nobody remember "In Living Color"?
BOO...looks the same as the Centro....with the same unusably small keyboard
Exactly my thoughts
but it's got that cool name
Have you actually tried the keyboard? I am guessing you haven't. I've owned a Centro for a little while and after about 1 week of adjustment from the Treo keyboard, I can type just as fast and accurately (e.g. very). The form factor is perfect and I think they made the keyboard _just_ big enough to not suck.
Palm's new motto: "Here's our new stuff! same exact thing as the old stuff... but prettier!"
It actually looks OK....
But if Palm actually calls it "Wanda" it'll be the end of them for sure.
"Hey, that's a cool looking phone man! What is it?"
"Oh, it's the new Palm Wanda!"
*gets kicked in balls*
Hey, thats my mom's name! Sure, it's not a very good gadget name, i'll give you that, but be nice ok?
If its as thin as it looks, thinks looks like a perfect phone for the girlfriend.
Make the hurting stop!
You morons, Wanda is a codename. It'll probably still be the Centro model.
that looks like the centro except the screen is frickin smaller
