RE: Hooray!!!!!!
Agreeing that the red is cool.
Just as I suspected...
(well, not me - I'm waiting for my USA mail forwarding address to be registered, so I can buy direct from Palm US. Should only be a week or so now. :D )
RE: Hooray!!!!!!
However the 750 is listed, but that don't run POS...
Oh well, whatever, nevermind
I live in Nokialand, so only GSM, no Blackberries or Sidekicks or Treo 7X0s.
RE: Hooray!!!!!!
I'll settle for graphite if the Australian price is not inflated, otherwise I will also try sourcing one from the USA. I am going to the USA in Nov next year but that is too long to wait....I might be after a newer model by then. ;)
Ouch...the Finland prices are very high. Any chance that you can source one from the USA? eBay might be useful.

RE: Hooray!!!!!!
I completely agree with you.
In Italy where I live it costs 499 euro (tax included, unlocked) which are equal to $643,71 (tax included, unlocked)!!! It's 48% more than USA!!! (I have considered 8.5% tax of CA for $434). And there is no carrier version at the moment (at least not in Italy).
When I bought my TX several months ago I paid 14% more than USA (referring to CA) which is ok because we have 2 year warranty and more taxes.
Now they are asking me $643,71 , 48% more than USA, for a smartphone with no wi-fi, no umts, 640x480 camera...
The price is very disappointing!!! :-(

What do you mean by "USA mail forwarding address"
Thanks...
RE: Hooray!!!!!!
For $35 USD you can get a US street address at their building. After that it's $35 per shipment they forward on, unless you pay a subscription in which case you get free shipments.
You'll need to send them a USPS form (they'll send you a link when you sign up) witnessed by a notary public authorising them to act as your agents. You'll also have to provide two forms of ID.
It's pretty cool.

Treo 270 ---> Treo 650
RE: Hooray!!!!!!
"Your" address doesn't matter.
Relayed very secondhand so take with rather large grain of salt.
RE: Hooray!!!!!! Cheap 750, too
At least that was the case as of about 10 minutes prior to this post being posted.
Giggle.

Biotch, go back to school and learn how to:
a) proofread,
b) spell, and,
c) use punctuation
Which cheek is my tongue in now, JLM?

Treo 680 now available in the UK for $520
You can get it for £50 if you sign up for a £35/month call plan with nodata allowance.
Incredibly the Palm UK store is still selling the Treo 650 at £399!!!
I guess only those smoking crack or with an unwholesome urge to stick the 650 antenna where the sun don't shine will go for that "offer".

RE: Treo 680 now available in the UK for $520
Gee - with SUCH a low price (PALM sure is lowballin' 'em lately, eh!?) they're sure to sell like hotcakes!

RE: Treo 680 now available in the UK for $520
That's $550+ in US dollars, not $520
Well fool on me for using last week's exchange rate, fingers crossed with this rate of devaluation £285 should be worth $600 by Christmas!
Start using your dollars to buy pounds or gold today whilst the money's still worth something! Hyperinflation can be a biotch!
Better still, be a true American by working that bit harder and keeping your currency strong, true and proud!!
As Gekko often points out, the rest of us in the world are dependent on American goodwill and generosity, don't fail us in our moment of need, we're all counting on you!
