Treo 650 timeline
🤣
Hello,
I wanted to know if anyone had a more specific date of when the Treo 650 would be released on Sprints network. I have been waiting for this phone for a while. Any negative concerns with the phone?
...
😡 With Sprint REMOVING the Bluetooth capability, I'm not waiting for the Sprint release (even though I'm a current subscriber). As soon as it hits VZW, I'm switching.
...
Sprint did not remove the Bluetooth. Did you read the article. It says that there is Bluetooth so you can sync with a PC or use a wireless headset. Besides I've seen a real full working version and yes it does have Bluetooth.
...
Sprint removed the wireless modem profile - so you cannot connect your computer with Bluetooth to your Treo and utilize the wireless network. It's mostly a function of Sprint having a weird pricing plan for their internet access (I think it's pretty much unlimited for a flat fee).
Personally, I'm more interested in BT for handsfree sets and synching to the computer. I'm also more interested in Verizon - who will probably not have this phone until 2008, and will probably cripple the BT even further.
...
Is sprint going to cripple the bluetooth on all the devices that come with it (example: Audiovox PPC-6600)???????????
...
Actually, it's more like Sprint wants to be first with the Treo 650, so they are shipping it before PalmOne has finished the DUN (dial-up-networking) BT profile. Sprint has already committed to offering an update early next year that will add this feature.
...
So you're willing to wait until 2008 for this phone? 🤣
