Unpacking the Treo 700p



















The estimated percentage of cellphones that were recycled in 2007.
The EPA estimated that of the 126.3 million cellphones disposed of in 2007, only 14 million -- about 10 percent -- were recycled. The rest? Landfill heaven. (source: EPA, July 2008)

Looks great. I can't wait to see a review.
mmm.. Wonder when he placed his order. I placed mine for a Sprint 700p yesterday, then cancelled today and reordered to get the free 1gig SD upgrade.
Wow. Lucky guy. Sure wish to receive one of those.
I have a 650 w/ cingular, waiting for cingular to adapt it. They have not released the 700w yet so i dont know how long i have to wait. but it will be worth it in the end :)
Can someone please explain what is so revolutionary about this phone?
nothing Drsilverworm, it's evolutionary.
as in Evolution-Data Optimized :D
I told you guys!!! He who laughs last, laughs best.
No.
He who laughs last, thinks slowest.
Hmm - just checked my Sprint site. 700p not available in 91381 zip code yet (southern cali)
Just before 10 AM EDT, my phone was delivered to my job. I opened it up and it looks great. It will be a few hours before I get home to back up my Treo 650 and then load up the new phone from Verizon Wireless.
By the way, I ordered it early Monday Morning, May 22 on line. For some reason (and I'm not complaining, mind you), the bumped up the shipping to standard overnight and charged me $70 less for the phone. I was not eligible for the discount as my two years were not up yet so the price was supposed to be $619 (YIKES!). The invoice in the box said $549.
Thanks Verizon!
I will post a review later today or tomorrow.
Is it me or does that look like a Palm OS in the 700 screenshots? Certainly doesn't look like Windows...
#11 - It's the Treo 700p... as in Palm
My 700p will be here tomorrow at 7pm. Woot. I'm upgrading from a Blackberry and have never used a Palm. Maybe I'll blog about it.
Looks like David H missed the last boat to idiot island :P
so, it looks like I'm switching from sprint to verizon... this is the phone that I think I want... I'm a mac user... How is the bluetooth sycning? I know that it used to suck on Verizon, is it different with this new phone? What about using the EV-DO as a modem with my PowerBook? Any chance I can get any of this to work?
No need to switch from Sprint from Verizon for this phone. Sprint has the 700p for sale now. Make sure that your zip has EVDO (Power Vision) available...
