    Re: New Treo 850w running WM 6.1 Professional

    Hi Trent,

    Do you know which are the main differences between the Treo 850 and the Treo 800 ?

    A part from the hardware and the memory onboard, they both seem equal..

     

    thanks!

    Ale

    Welcome Alead.

    Mobility Mind has some details of the 850 and describes it as a big brother to the 800 -

    It turns out that the 800 has a brother, the Treo 850. The Treo 800 runs on EVDO (Sprint and Verizon in the US), while the 850 is for GSM networks (i.e. just about everyone else, the rest of the world).

    Here is the specs as far as intomobile.com knows:

    • 400Mhz CPU
    • 256MB ROM, 128MB RAM — i.e. enough for performing multiple demanding tasks at once
    • Tri-band 3G, quad-band GSM/GPRS
    • 320×320 pixels touchscreen
    • built-in GPS
    • 2 megapixel camera (why not more?)
    • microUSB connector
    • 3.5mm audio jack
    • 1500 mAh battery (wow, that should provide tons of juice)
    • there’s a WiFi switch on the side (ultra cool!)
    • Preinstalled software includes Adobe Reader, Embertec Java, Telenav and Sprite Backup.
    • microSD slot supports cards of up to 32GB

    The problem with this phone though is its design. It still looks like a brick. And Palm still insists on having small screen sizes. I think Palm is stuck somewhere in 2004!
