Not slow enough to take another swipe at the Palm Treo Pro (which is still not meant to be replaced by the Palm Pre)!

Yep.

This kind of thing happens a lot around here.

"At $549, you might say that the Treo Pro is a tough pill to swallow in the face of ever-sexier competition from other WinMo devices and Palm's own Pre"
Why do you guys keep reporting on the Treo Pro as if it's $549 everywhere with-new-contract? I know you guys only use GSM (unless some of you own a Pre now), but the Treo Pro has available on contract for $199 from Sprint and Alltel a very long time, frequently discounted to $149 or $99 on promotions.

In contrast, when you report on other phones (ones that you like better) such as the Pre or the iPhone, you always only stick with the with-new-contract prices. Why?

Your title should read 'Unlocked Palm Treo Pro'. Be more honest in your reporting, guys.

VGA screen?? Surely you mean QVGA.

Excellent point!

Not to mention the fact that Sony Ericcson doesn't make U.S. CDMA phones in the first place. So no, this is still not ironic.

"Sprint already sold most of its towers to TowerCo last year"
For the 10th time, no, they did not. You keep pushing this falsehood instead of correcting your old article; a buttload of commenters have repeatedly pointed out to you that your original source was misinformed. Please stop pushing around false information, guys.

Sprint got an additional 20,000 towers just from the Nextel deal alone -- a relatively sparse network. Sprint only sold 3,000 towers to TowerCo. Do the math.

Are we supposed to believe your story?

Somehow I don't think WQVGA is in the works. VGA and QVGA seem more likely.

Yeah there was a story on here or Giz about a guy receiving an iPod from Apple with this barebone GUI installed on it. It showed a Bluetooth icon which got everyone into a tizzy for a week until someone stripped it down and found that there was no Bluetooth chip inside.
