Samsung i770 Treo 800w

Take a gander at what Engadget Mobile has gotten ahold of: a powerpoint presentation detailing Verizon's roadmap for the upcoming months. Definitely check the entire gallery, but here's the news for Windows Mobile fans:

The Treo 800w will hit in Q3 and looks, well, it looks alright. We're guessing it'll be late Q3 so Sprint can have a little bit of exclusivity after their July 22nd release.

It turns out at the the Samsung SCH-i770 is not the “world edition” of the i760 as we previously thought. Nope, instead it's a front-facing QWERTY WM 6.1 Pro device -- looks like direct competition for the Treo. It's also due Q3.

More specs on the Samsung i770:

  • EVDO REV A / GPRS (World edition indeed!)
  • 256 ROM / 128 RAM
  • Windows Mobile 6.1 Pro
  • WiFi B/G
  • “BBAC” Bluetooth / Cable -- That's Broadband connect, aka tethering
  • MicroSD

Thanks to seanandcara for the tip!

That i770 is nice... Is it me, or does Verizon seem to be totally ignoring the fact in all official business that they came out with the touch two months ago? I suppose that means we'll see an official 6.1 ROM, with unlocked GPS, about year 2020...
