RE: Got my order in
Congrats! When you get yours, would you please take a few moments to post here the version numbers of Blazer, VersaMail, PTunes, DTG, Messaging, as well as how much RAM is available out of the box? And feel free to anything else that looks different or changed from what Ryan reported in his Sprint 755p review. I'm curious to see if there were any specific "issues" that Verizon felt needed to be addressed before shipping the 755p (and in turn devastating Palm's quarterly financials).
Also, can you please let us know if a Vista-compliant version of Palm Desktop 6.2 is included on the software CD or if they do the same as with the Centro and instruct you to download the beta version (ugh).

RE: Got my order in
Personally, I'm waiting to see if anyone who has/had a 700p picks one up and gives some indication of if/how well any of that device's reported problems were resolved with the 755p.
RE: Got my order in
I normally find the HoFo crowd, while dumbphone diehards and a friendly bunch, not nearly as "up" on POS as the PIC/TC/BH/1src faithful so I don't pop in there as often as I should.

RE: Got my order in
The best we can possibly hope for now is a huge ROM update down the road for all versions of the 755p to at least bring it up to par with the Centro as far as Blazer/VM and maybe some of the Garnet bits. I doubt they'd upgrade Google Maps, DTG, & PTunes because of the licensing costs/fees associated with doing that.

Only Green!?
RE: Only Green!?
I have no idea what that means, but I'll try to let you know when mine arrives.

I'll post updates as I continue to get comfortable with it.

Version Numbers
Specifically: Blazer is v4.5, pTunes is the v3.0.9 Bundle, and other apps are exactly the same as the 700p. OS version v5.4.9. And the firmware is 1.06.
Not surprising, but certainly disappointing. :(
