Palm Treo 850Fans of Palm’s Treo lineup of smartphones are no doubt waiting on the edge of their seats for Palm to go live with the next-generation Treo lineup. And, from the looks of the leaked and in-the-wild pictures we’ve seen of the fresh, new wares, it’s not hard to see why. The slimmer, sleeker, and more consumer-friendly Treo 850 should help bring Palm out of the slump that not even the Palm Centro has been able to stave off. At just 113 x 60 x 14mm, the Palm Treo 850 is definitely a welcome departure from the bulky Treos of days past.

If these new Palm Treo 850 specs pan out, Palm could very well have a winner on its hands. We’re hearing that the new smartphone will launch with Windows Mobile 6.1 running the show. Add to that the rumors that the Palm Treo 850 will feature a 2 megapixel camera, 3G/HSDPA topping out at 3.6Mbps, WiFi, AGPS, Bluetooth 2.0 A2DP, 256MB ROM/ 64MB RAM, and a 320 x 320 display and the handset starts to sound like a serious contender in a crowded smartphone market.

Still, will the Palm Treo 850 be the boost that Palm needs to keep it from an unfortunate demise? We sure hope so…

    I have been able to acquire one of the Palm Treo 850′s. After doing some online research it seems they aren’t being sold in stores. Does anyone know where I can get a manual to download?

    Does anyone know how to have the time for incoming text messages display? My phone only shows the date they come in, not the time.  My outgoing texts display the time.  Well I already know when I send texts but I would like to know when they come in.
