    Treo 650 No Longer for Sale at Palm.comPosted By: Ryan on Monday, December 04, 2006 10:33:01 AM
The Treo 650 is no longer offered for sale on Palm's website. The 650's product information page is still posted but states "This device is no longer available" and recommends Palm's current Treo 680 and 700 series. The Treo 650 was announced by Palm in October 2004.

 Buh-bye Treo 650...
Only those who like longer battery life or live for the thrill of file-juggling-to-the-SD-card-and-back will shed a tear over this news.
Basically, the real practical difference between the 650 and 680 (ignoring the price - which all carriers play with) is that the 680 has an appropriate amount of RAM and less battery life. Oh yeah - the antenna has been internalized (finally).
I wonder how Sprint will treat my insurance
Does this mean Sprint will run out of 650 referbs and if my phone craps out I'll get a 700p instead?

As I said in a previous post (http://www.palminfocenter.com/comments/9003/#127546) given this choice only a crack head or someone with some perverted antenna fetish will pay £100 more for the less that is the 650. Well what's the old saying, there's a sucker born every minute...
Oh and SeldomVisitor, can you believe that £285 is now worth $564 US dollars and not the $550 you pointed out to me last week! It seems you're still not working hard enough, I'm holding you responsible for letting the dollar slide!!!
