Posted: Mon Jul 21, 2008 3:35 pm Post subject: Palm using Micro USB |
|
|
Every review is complaining about the use of Micro USB in the new Palm Treo 800W. If any of your reviewers were actually techy you would know that this is the new standard for all mobile devices. Palm just seems to be the first to use it.
"In September, 2007 the Open Mobile Terminal Platform—a forum dominated by mobile network operators but including manufacturers such as Nokia, Samsung, Motorola, Sony Ericsson and LG—announced that its members had agreed on micro-USB as the future common connector for mobile devices." |

"It also has two brand new buttons. This has not been on any Treo devices before."
Wow. So what were those big things under the screen of the 750 then? |

So when is that 850 coming anyway? Supposedly it's around the corner but there's no word at all. Also, will it tied to any operator initially?
Many questions but no answers regarding the 850. _________________ Palm Vx -> Palm 505 -> Dell Axim -> Palm TE -> Qtek 9090 -> Nokia 6630 -> iMate SP3i -> Nokia 9300 -> Treo 650 -> hw6915 -> Nokia E51 -> Touch Enhanced |

Was supposed to be this August. Probably be on Vodafone as the 850v (it's been seen on their roadmap) and they had previous 12 month exclusivity on the 750 and 500. |
