Rogers Wireless is finally joining the Windows Mobile 6.0 party with the launch of the WinMo6-powered Palm (NSDQ: PALM) Treo 750. As Canada’s sole GSM wireless carrier, Rogers (NYSE: RCI) will be getting an exclusive on the Treo 750’s 1.3 megapixel camera, 300Mhz Samsung processor, 128MB RAM, Bluetooth, and quad-band (850/900/1800/1900Mhz) GSM radio with 2100Mhz HSDPA .
We’re sure our Canadian friends are glad to be getting an update to Rogers’ Treo offering – the Treo 680 – especially with the HSDPA and WM6-toting Treo 750.
Expect to pony up $249.99 with a 3-year contract (3 years?!), $599.99 with a 2-year contract, and $649.99 with a 1-year contract (which, coincidentally, is what it costs to buy outright, sans contract).
Good for you Rogers! Welcome to the Windows Mobile 6.0 club.

Yes, we have 3 year contracts and horrible data plans
Isn’t HSDPA 2100 Mhz a typo? I thought our Canadian neighbours were on 1900/850 just like the US
