Sounds like a nice enough upgrade, but likely only for those in areas EVDO is available. I can't see many people in more rural areas making the upgrade from the 650 at least just for a better camera, BT1.2 and a minimal upgrade in memory - ok there are other things but not that exciting either. Especially not for double or triple the price. I for one am hoping this is the "lowrider" selling at around $300 (still appropriately more than the current prices of the 650) and that an 800p/hollywood or whatever is coming out with the real upgrades (wifi, 128-256 int memory etc) late in the year. At this point there are many more wifi areas than EVDO areas so I think they're missing the boat there.
If those things occured, i then the specs we have seen for this new 700p would be an appropriate update and give a wide range of options for people once released widespread. I don't see myself getting a 700p (hopefully lowrider please) since i got a 650 last month unless we get EVDO soon, but would definitly shell out some cash for a true upgrade.
