Quick question.

In the video he says that they are working on CDMA and GSM at the same time. Does this mean the verison version will be sooner than expected? I do not know the cell phone technology that well .

Based on past experience, I would predict that GSM (from T-moble) and CDMA (from Sprint) versions to be released at about the same time. Verizon, however, is a whole different story. It could be a year before we see this device being offered from Verizon (I sure hope this Verizon prediction is WRONG!!!)

Ah..for some reason I thought CDMA was also verison. Shows how much I know.

Unless a new version of the 7135 comes out before then this is going to be my next phone.

There are two different telecommunication protocols in use in the US. CDMA (Sprint and Verizon) and GSM (T-mobile, ATT, Cingular among others...)

Some one mentioned the GSM carrier would be Cingular and not T-Mob. What are your thoughts Dave??

Well, I am a CDMA guy myself, so I'm not the best one to ask, however, my impression is that T-mobile gets the lion's share of new GSM phones, so I would be surprised if they pass on the new Treo.

I didnt hear or see anything about Push-To-Talk. Guess thats not a feature. Although it was rumored to be one. I have a question as well, I dont know a lot about CDMA and GSM, but what would the treo 650 for Verizon be considered?

If I understand your question, Verizon will probably carry the Treo 650, however, Verizon is reknown for taking a very long time in testing products themselves before bringing them to market, so don't expect the Treo 650 to be available from Verizon anytime soon.
