Back at CES this year, Bill Gates himself (unknowingly) exposed a bombshell for the Windows Mobile Professional market; a fairly believable rendering of the update to Palm's successful Treo 750 - the Treo 800w, or 'Drucker' as it is named in development.
However today, Sprint has done a 'Vodafone Europe' and exposed its new PDA lineup for the next few months; for February it was a Samsung device; for the end of March, it is the BlackBerry Curve; but those are fairly uninteresting devices.
What is interesting is what should be released at the end of April; Palm's EVDO enabled 800w.
The picture tells it all; sorry it's so small. We certainly can't confirm the accuracy of the shot - to us, upon very close inspection, it looks almost like a graphite Treo 680 with a Treo 500 / Centro soft key array tacked on to it.
However, Treo fans rejoice; this baby has WiFi, and GPS! It's likely that there will be two variants available, as well; with and without a camera, due to increasing corporate camera restrictions.
So - will we see this at the end of April? We shall see.
