OK, I have been reading PalmAddicts and PalmInfoCenter. Apparently there will be a new Palm OS shipping on devices later this year, combining parts of Garnet and Linux OS core. Anyone wanna spin there take on this?

I guess I should have waited on my Treo 680 purchase, eh?

*goes to delete ACCESS bookmark* wont be needing that anymore! lol

Whoopie! There's no point in getting excited until it actually ships.

Remember Cobalt? No? Hmmmm.......

ha ha.

well cobalt never shipped cause palmsource was actually bought. this has zippo to do with palmsource or access for that matter. i really cant wait for this to ship, i trust Palm this time, always have actually.

this might usher in a Treo with WIFI... i don't doubt it for a second. they need it, competition like HTC has full blown wifi, treo's dont.

As data becomes cheaper, wifi will become less relavant.

Braver man than I. Evidently you never owned a Tungsten T either.

Maybe for our US friends. We dont see cheap data in Canada anytime soon A measly 5 MB costs like 25 bucks.

I did own a Tungsten actually. Visors from Handspring, z22's, Treo 270-680, and a few I cant remember the name of. I just see the compatibility and basics continuing, new Palm OS or not.

Im very happy with my 680 that came today, its pretty dang amazing. Doesn't look like a mass upgrade on paper from the 650, but it really is! A ton of little hidden nik naks! amazing! Palm does it again! *reassured*

Fishera....

PODCAST.

This is something that coulda taken up a whole episode!

Anyhoo... What color 680 did you get? I like the white one so much that I painted my 700p white last week. I hope the next CDMA treo takes a leaf from the 680's book & comes in the same colors.

yeah we need to get working on that soon. I think my brother jacked my recording hardware... but that doesn't mean I have ideas, using our treos actually. lol

I got unlocked unbranded graphite. plain and simple. actually, I wud have gotten white or orange but they didn't have any... damn cingular *cough I mean att lol.

anyway. I personally cud care less about wifi in my treo. I pay $5 for unlimited net access on tmobile and that's fine. edge is perfect on something so ti

The white one it great! I love it. I got a graphite one from a seller on ebay that was suppose to be white then I found one...much better looking than the graphite one. And Yes Fish, there is quite a big update from the 650 on the 680. Doesn't seem like it but using it you can tell the difference.
