Yes, there's a slight change in buttons though, the menu button is what the right shift key used to be.

Kind of like the 600 was then.

I was under the impression that the current version or at least Palm 5 was capable of 3G data. I am curious though, I don't want WM I can't wait for a new Treo that runs Palm

Look at that picture, the right shift is the menu button, the left softkey is the green "send" button, and the right softkey is the "end" button.

In addition, from left to right you have Phone, Calendar, Messaging, Home.

Yes it's production, under the battery, it says Treo xxx, it's not labelled 700 or 700p at all, but when I called up sprint to activate it, they recognized it in their system as the treo 700.

If this is the real deal, Perry will definitely lose it - here come the padded walls

I hope it's Sprint - they must've lied to Slinky yesterday re. the 800p name.

I love this soap opera/gossip fest pre-Treo release. This one is definitely more fun than the 650 runup.

I cannot wait to use Chatter with EVDO - never a missed call!

Huh? Why would they move the menu button back down there? That was one of the few legitimate usability improvements they actually made with the 650. I *like* having the menu button within easy reach of my thumb.

And what was the point of linking to a picture of a 700w?

How much memory? (total, avalaible, the works...) I assume wifi isn't included? Can you confirm bluetooth is version 1.2? Blazer version?

I'm psyched if ptunes really is in rom instead of Real -- could somebody at Palm really be listening?

I agree with Scott R -- I liked how they moved the menu button up, to where it's easier to get to.

Merlyn,

Can you take a quick pic with your 650 to keep the dogs away (for a while?)

Please forgive me for not being in a trusting mood. So since you're making yourself available for Q&A, please do the following...

1) Answer how it is that you have one.

2) Take some pictures of it.

I've been a way for some time. I sold my Treo 650 last year because my job mandated BB's. Now I'm back and can't wait to join the Treo family again. What a great way to start! So pocket tunes comes with?

How do you tell BT version in PalmOS, I dunno if the going to applications>menu>info would be correct, cuz that might be the application version.

This is even sillier than my talking 'possum.

At least attempt to photoshop a picture, instead of linking us to a 700w.

I forgot my 650 at home today (blast it, it's been a pain all day) -- so I can't give you the exact steps, but go to Home, Prefs, Bluetooth. Then, if it's not on that screen, hit the Menu button and look for the About item.
