Hmm, the big question about getting a Treo 600 is whether I’m going to go stick w/ T-Mobile or Sprint… I have nothing against either company, decent experiences with both. I’ve had some reception funkiness w/ T-Mobile, but that’s probably more my Sidekick than anything else. The GSM version of the Treo 600 is a quad-band (GSM 800/900/1800/1900) world phone that also has longer battery life (5-7hrs) vs the CDMA version, which has 4hrs battery-life on a possibly funky Airprime radio, but which would probably be nominally faster (data throughput).
It’ll probably come down to availability/monthly price. (Vision is now $15/mo instead of $10/mo (not $30/mo at least though; minute plans seem to be gettin worse at Sprint) Some interesting threads @ TreoCentral:
- Topic: Soft launch only of Treo 600- available now!!! – at least $56 off for handset upgrade, $100-150 credit via retention for contract, and another $50 possible HandSpring rebate.
- Topic: Absolutely no luck – useful info as the page progresses
