Hah! Sprint even put out news that they were going to be the first ones with the Treo 700p. Verizoin pulled a quick one on them. Now Sprint looks like liars.

Sprint customers are probably not too happy. Though I think Sprint should be announcing it any day now.

So what's so different between the 700p and the 700w? Just the OS?

4. Posted by GSMDude Thu May 25, 2006 11:08 am

That's the main differnce. The 700w runs Windows the 700p runs Palm OS.

anything else?

6. Posted by GSMDude Mon May 29, 2006 2:47 pm

That's a pretty huge difference. Basically the whole software and functionality is different. Cosmetically they look similar.

Is there any news on when the 700p will be available in the Verizon retail stores?

so not to sound dumb, but what i can't figure out is waht's going to be the difference bewtween a 700p and a 650...better camera? and does the streaming media portion mean it will have vcast?

Looks like the "biggies" is broadband access and removable memory. Here's a link with a side by side comparison.

Opps .... sorry .. that may not be a good link. Just go to verizonwireless.com and start out with PDA/Phones and you can get a side by side comparison of any of these phones.

It says it has broadband but no mobile web. Can someone explain the difference to me?
