Gizmodo has gotten confirmation from Sprint’s insider that the carrier is preparing to launch the Palm Gandolf and BlackBerry Pearl 2 later this year.
Palm Gandolf, or as they call it “Gandolfini”, will retail for around $200, making it one of the most affordable smartphones on the market. Gandolf will target teenagers who text message frequently — in that sense, they describe it as “a [Treo] 700p that got in a nasty accident with a steamroller.”
On the other hand, Sprint is also set to roll out the next Pearl somewhere in September 2007. This baby promises to be even more appealing than its predecessor, and will pack an EV-DO as well as the support for Sprint’s mobile music store.

The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
