Examining the Treo 650 Smartphone
aws910 writes "Many sites are reporting on the upcoming PalmOne Treo 650. According to MobileMag, 'The 650 will have a 1.3MP digital camera, bluetooth, higher resolution screen, backlight keyboard and voice recording. The processor will be a speedy 312MHz with 32MB of RAM, and of course an SD memory slot for expandable storage. No timeframe or price is known.' Some of the forums at other sites are reporting around 2 months as the timeframe for release. A good summary of the new device can be found here. More gossip can be found on the forum here." Gizmodo and Endgadget have pictures as well.
I just bought a Treo 600.
How long will it be beofre phones are touted as add ons to PDA's instead of PDA fuctions on a phone
does it tell time? and can it run Linux ?
... A 15 pound backpack, carrying a 12V battery that will allow you to use all of these wonderful features for more than 15 minutes at a time!

We need nostalgic mod points

The whole shabang
a cellphone with these features
-has a digital camera (atleast 3 megapixels)
-works as a pda
-bluetooth
-20 Gig hardrive (minimum) for music and other stuff
-and wipes my booty (not required)
this is my ultimate one, It is pretty much an IPOD made into a phone/pda/camera/toiletpaper :) If anyone has seen this one tell me about it and I will buy it.
It's for real. I normally don't go for these things but...Free ipods (click here to get yours) .
I feel like I'm getting really old, and I'm only in my 20s.

Taking candid shots down the blouse of the woman next to you on the train is, unfortunately, a larger market demographic then video phones.

>Push Buttons
You randomly push some buttons on the phone. Other than some beeps and a battery icon appearing, this has no effect.
>Throw phone at marketing overlords
The phone hits the marketing overlords with a satisfying thump. The marketing overlords, who were busy adding new buzzword features to the next model, fall to the floor and cry. Between the sobs, you can hear their promises to sell a phone that just makes calls, and uses fuel cells to last for weeks on end.
Congratulations! You've won the game!
Play again? Y/N

I'm sure it has vibrate mode.
You must be new here if you think you-must-be-new-here jokes are funny.
IIGS? N00b! Apple ][+ forever! ;)
I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate.
I dropped a tuba (don't laugh!) on my Nokia 6120 many years ago. The LCD broke into many pieces. Fortunately I paid $2.95/month for the HW replacement on the phone. Well worth it. Another after that bit the dust. Then I was water new grass one day at a landscaping job I had; the phone got slightly wet (I mean very little water touched the damned thing). The phone went bonker immediately. Apparently I got a small amount of water on the data/headset connectors on the bottom of the phone. It was absolutely convinced that there was a headset attached to it and wouldn't use the builtin speaker or mic. Damned thing. They replaced it again with a 6120i (International). I still have it. I wrecked my motorcyle with that Nokia on my hip a year or so ago and it survived. Rugged little bastard. I'm switching carriers tomorrow though. Bye bye little buddy...
Did it shrink?
Or did you use cold water?
