Treo 750 Launched on Rogers Canada

Posted By: Ryan Kairer Wednesday, September 19, 2007 10:17:23 AM

Palm Canada today announced the availability of the Palm Treo 750 smartphone, the first Treo to run on the Rogers' High-Speed Packet Access (HSDPA) network. The Treo 750 combines the Palm experience of a multifunction mobile phone with a new, powerful Windows Mobile 6 Professional software for email, messaging, web browsing and Office Mobile that lets users review and edit business documents and access corporate data.

Treo 750 ReviewPowerful business features combined with Palm usability improvements, such as photo speed dial and Direct Push Technology, allow Palm customers added freedoms. Users can access multiple business and personal email accounts, including Outlook email, and get easy updates to calendar, contacts and tasks while leveraging high-speed web access on the go.

The Treo 750 also has a full QWERTY keyboard for easy messaging, a bright 240x240 colour touch-screen and support for Bluetooth(R) stereo headsets. The built-in 128MB memory (60MB user available) can be enhanced by using the mini-SD slot to add memory cards of up to 4GB (sold separately), which are great for storing data, photos, music and video.

The wireless phone is a quad band GSM/GPRS/EDGE/UMTS radio. It supports the 850/900/1800/1900 GSM bands, and 850/1900/2100 UTMS bands. The battery is a removable 1200 mAH Lithium-ion, good for a claimed 4.5 hours GSM / 2.5 hours UMTS talk time, with 10 days standby time.

Another on the list of WM6 updates

Call me impatient, but why is AT&T always the last to have “it” (with the exception of the highly overrated iPhone)? Don’t get me wrong I love the fact that (supposedly) we’ll be getting the WM6 free update, but if you’re going to say “early September,” you should stick to it or at least overshoot and add a month or two to your deadlines. It’s now late September and there’s still nothing for us in the states. While I may sound impatient, this is coming from an administrator already running Exchange 2007 with users greatly anticipating the newly implemented features of WM6.

Too Much Too Late

$699 without a contract? $100 for 2mb of data?

Refrakkendiculous.

I guess that means we'll be getting the iPhone 1.0 in 2010 for $999 and $100 for 2mb...

that's the price you pay for being an insignificant, irrelevant country.

oh puhleese Gekko

I resent comments like that, especially as I sit here in my igloo that's melting as a result of global warming.

And besides, our economy is almost as big as California's! Take that sucka.

Better yet, I'll send you a Blackberry.

Sodomy

If you want to make a killing in business in Canada but avoid being charged and convicted for usury, just go into the wireless data business instead, where you can sodomize your customers all you like.

If you want rates to come down, just avoid using Rogers' services.
