Treo 800w: Sprint Smartphone Gets WiFi and Rev. A

Sprint's gone and launched the Palm Treo 800w smartphone, and some of you might even have one already. $249.99 (on contract and after rebates) gets you the latest Palm device with Windows Mobile 6.1 and the first Treo ever to feature onboard WiFi (802.11 b/g). You'll also get EV-DO Rev. A for high-speed data, GPS with Sprint Navigation support, a 2MP camera, Sprint TV, and direct push e-mail.

We'll have one in the offices shortly - want to see a video? Let me know ... Meantime if you've already got the 800w, post a comment and tell us how it is. Or head on over to Sprint's Web site to learn more.

MOTO Krave ZN4
I'm "at" the Motorola Virtual Press Conference where they're launching the Krave ZN4 for Verizon. No surprise here, as this device was leaked far and wide. But it still sounds pretty interesting - it's a flip phone with a touchscreen and an "interactive flip." Apparently the clear plastic flip cover has touch controls so you can access frequently used functions without opening the device up. Krave looks like it's going to...

Mini-Review: BlackBerry 8220
The first ever flip BlackBerry is a winner, so long as you play to its strengths. While the 8220 is very large for a modern day flip phone, it's lightweight and slick looking enough to trick you into thinking it's a little smaller than it really is. I've had the 8220 for just under a week now, and I very quickly grew used to carrying it around in my pocket. No, it's not as thin as a RAZR or as small as a low-end sliderphone,...

Tips & Tricks
Better Signal: Verizon
Lane Jensen in Oregon here and I have a great trick that works for all Verizon phones to get better signal. First, you need to be within about a 5-10 mile radius of where you are going to use your phone the most. Secondly, instead of dialing the normal *228 for activation, dial *22899 and it will take you instantly to the programming music and update your phone. No more having to go through the prompt and listening to the same old voice saying,...

LG Lotus (Sprint) - Photos
Hey, look what just came! Thanks, Vanessa ;-) Here are some photos of the black LG Lotus for Sprint. The QWERTY board feels GREAT so far, as those bubbled chiclet-style keys make up for the relatively small size of the layout. Sprint's new One Click UI is sort of cool and helpful and sort of overdone; I'll have to play with it more, but I hope it winds up being handier more often than it gets in the way. And I'm...
