Comments on: Treo Becomes Even More Multinational
Of course, the Treo will soon be available in many more countries. This will be made much easier by an agreement announced this week to localize the product line into 15 European languages

Anyways, I'm glad that the OS on each device will be localized, but what about the thumb keyboard?
Many of those countries have very different alphabets. Are they localizing the hardware too? I don't see much use for this phone in countries like Ukraine and Russia, where some of the letters may look the same, but sound completely different.

RE: Thoughtful Planning
with a country as large as the US, we need a air standard that integrates well with analog modes. CDMA has that, GSM doesn't.
At the end of the day, I don't really care which one I use - I just want my calls to go thru! ;)
RE: Thoughtful Planning
How can you say that when the Treo isn't even available yet, except in Hong Kong and Singapore. We don't know how well the Treo will do in the USA until it actually hits the market.
RE: Thoughtful Planning
When the Visor was available it took a very long time to reach the Asian, European and even the Canadian market. Things seem to be a lot different with the Treo. It will be available in more countries a lot faster than the Visor did and this should bode well for sales.

IMHO Treo will be the death of Handspring, because 1) the PDA/cellphone combo is overrated, and 2) Handspring's essentially ignored their domestic-freakin'-market, the US, by going GSM. For a company that has NEVER, repeat, NEVER, posted a profit, it seems rather foolish to seek overseas dollars before you go after your home market.
No doubt some Handspring-loving loser will flame me mercilessly, but such is life here on PIC, and the flamers can all go to h***.
For a million dollars, where is the int'l service for i705?
B. offered by palm
C. offered by independentoperators
D. None.
My final answer would be ................D
Please tell me I didn't won a million dollars.....
Wireless Service in Hong Kong
And since Treo uses GSM technology, you can choose between a few GSM 900MHz network service providers, including SmarTone (an official reseller of Treo). Excluding some GSM 1800MHz-only providers.

The original no discount price tag is really kinda very extremely not cheap.

Do you know what the GSM Network Service Providers in Hong Kong are?
