Treo 700w, 700p Memory Upgrades Undergoing Testing

Since its release in January 2006, the main criticism with the Treo 700w has been regarding its paltry amount of RAM. Pocket PC Techs, a 3rd party repair/upgrade company, is trying to address this issue for Verizon users stymied by their devices' memory constraints. The hope is that a lifted 700wx ROM will permit the 700w's OS to recognize the additional memory.

Interestingly, in addition to the 700w, the site's Palm memory upgrade checker also lists the Treo 700p as being currently in testing to see if its memory is upgradable.

Several e-mail correspondences from PPC Techs to TreoCentral members also indicate that the 700p,w, and wx are all currently in testing for working combinations of software and hardware to permit additional onboard memory.

Additional discussion on this can also be found at the Howard Chui forums.
