Handspring Shows Treo 600 Smartphone at CeBIT
securitas writes "Handspring unveiled its final product before being acquired by Palm: the Treo 600. It runs Palm OS 5.2 on a Texas Instruments ARM processor with 32MB of RAM, has a 160 x 160 color display, comes in GSM and CDMA versions, includes a digital camera plus various camera applications and supports Good Technology's Goodlink e-mail software, competition to RIM's BlackBerry. Of course it also comes with a keyboard, SMS capability, MP3 player, Web browser and Secure Digital/MMC memory-card expansion slot. Measuring 4.41 inches x 2.26 inches x 0.87 (LxWxD) and weighing about 6 ounces, analysts say that the Treo 600 is what clinched Palm's takeover of Handspring. The only problem that they forsee is a seriously crowded market for PDA/mobile phone combinations. Availability for the Treo 600 is this fall. Images at eWeek, SFGate or Reuters.

Why is the story on the front different from the story displayed with the comments by one line?
This is what happens in a capitalist society. This november give the communist party another shot.
They aren't all like Kim Jong. Just look at the good its done for China and Vietnam. Communists support Linux and OSS, they fight for the citizens rights without taking them away, and almost everybody is guaranteed a job. Now with capitalism you're a slave with your rights constantly under threat.
Please think before you vote.
Vote Communist.
I'm cumming!
*Splurt*
For the Bush regime

Why there need to be so many links. If they are about different pieces of news, they should be in multiple articles. If they are about the same piece of news, just link to the most informative one.
I think they were going for a record here on number of links. Does cramming the links in there actually make it better? Should I submit a story that's a page long and all links?
Did they actually break the record? We must know these things. Inquiring minds want to know.
"I don't know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve."
to mesmerize the editors! they saw all those links and were ensnared by it's powers and charm. Naturally, Timothy had but one thought, wow, with that many links, this has to be important news!
For gods sake help the poor intelligent chickens!
Chickens are inquisitive and interesting animals and are thought to be at least as intelligent as dogs or cats. When in natural surroundings, not on factory farms, they form friendships and social hierarchies, recognize one another, love their young, and enjoy a full life, dust bathing, making nests, roosting in trees, and more.
The more than 700 million chickens raised each year for KFC aren't able to do any of these things. They are crammed by the tens of thousands into sheds that stink of ammonia fumes from accumulated waste; they are given barely even room to move (each bird lives in the amount of space equivalent to a standard sheet of paper). They routinely suffer broken bones from being bred to be top heavy, from callous handling (workers roughly grab birds by their legs and stuff them into crates) and from being shackled upside down at slaughterhouses. Chickens are often still fully conscious as their throats are cut or when they are dumped into tanks of scalding hot water to remove their feathers. When theyâ(TM)re killed, chickens are still babies, not yet two months old, out of a natural life span of 10-15 years.
In May of 2001, KFCâ(TM)s parent company, Yum Brands, Inc. assured PETA that it intended to âoeraise the barâ on animal welfare; yet, to date, KFC has done nothing to address some of the most egregious animal cruelty in the chicken industry. We need your help to convince KFC to take some key steps to reduce the worst suffering.
