Small, Square screen still blows... PalmOS (and WinMo) still blows, tiny qwerty keys are still unusable, still too heavy, pressure-type "touchscreen" doesn't work with fingers and is meant for a stylus, etc etc...

I wish Palm would just hurry up and die.

It seems as though Palm is going the way of the iPhone... just not in the good ways.

Well, all the more reason to buy an iPhone 3G over this thing!

While MMS has already got this handled.

Replacing MMS with email seems a bit strange given this. Though depending on where in the world you live and your carrier, MMS pricing can be equally peculiar, making email more cost-effective.

It's not like the two are mutually exclusive either.

All that said however, a phone coming out in 2008 without the ability for it, is just plain silly. Sure, it may not be a much-used feature, but isn't the point of these things to have lots of features? ]]>Jun 28th 2008 10:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/28/treo-800w-spec-sheets-and-training-materials-reveal-details-lac/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/28/treo-800w-spec-sheets-and-training-materials-reveal-details-lac/Jun 29th 2008 12:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/28/treo-800w-spec-sheets-and-training-materials-reveal-details-lac/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/28/treo-800w-spec-sheets-and-training-materials-reveal-details-lac/Jun 28th 2008 5:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/28/treo-800w-spec-sheets-and-training-materials-reveal-details-lac/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/28/treo-800w-spec-sheets-and-training-materials-reveal-details-lac/Jun 28th 2008 6:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/28/treo-800w-spec-sheets-and-training-materials-reveal-details-lac/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/28/treo-800w-spec-sheets-and-training-materials-reveal-details-lac/Jun 28th 2008 5:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/28/treo-800w-spec-sheets-and-training-materials-reveal-details-lac/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/28/treo-800w-spec-sheets-and-training-materials-reveal-details-lac/
And you're stripped the MMS feature out of your glorious threaded SMS app? WTF? You should have stood up to Sprint on that one.

It is not a bad looking device at all, but sitting next to an iPhone 3G, a Blackberry Pearl and a Blackberry Bold, it has it's work cut out for it.
