Palm Treo 750
Latest Bad News
After the Treo 680 unceremoniously made its appearance (finally) November 24 for $199, you'd expect the Treo 750 to come soon as well. Not quite, as Palm CEO Ed Colligan pointed out yesterday.
Even though Cingular's eventually going to get the Treo 750, which has been out in Europe for a while, stability problems have pushed the release back into the 3rd quarter of fiscal year '07. This means sometime between March 1 to May 30, for those not familiar with the fiscal calendar (Palm's is off by a month). – Jason Chen

Mr. Chen doesn't have Palm's fiscal year right.
"Sunnyvale, California-based Palm now expects to start shipping the Treo 750 in the United States early in the fiscal third quarter instead of the current quarter when it expected the device would help boost sales. Palm's second quarter ends on Friday."

IOW, early Q3 is December.

I talked with a Store rep yesterday (12/7) who says that the 750 is not on their current price list, which means that it is not coming out before the 15th. On the 15th a new price list will come out and if it is on there then we at least know it is coming, but he didn't say if he would know when at that point. This guy is about a mile from corporate offices in Redmond, WA, so I hope he know's what he is talking about. I'm jones'n for this thing!
