Question about pricing for data.
I have been looking into getting a new pda phone on the Sprint network soon and I have noticed that the price for the internet/pictures/e-mail...etc plans on the Windows based phones are twice as much as the Palm based phones. It is $30 a month for Windows and $15 a month for Palm. Why is this the case?
It will actually work in my favor this way anyways because I am going to be getting the new Treo 650 phone, which luckily for me is Palm OS. Thanks in advance for any insight that you may want to share.

The Windows Based phone can handle true HTML websites, not just WAP sites... which means more data is going to be passing through your phone than normally would.

Thanks for your reply, but I don't think that it is entirely accurate. For example, the treo 600 is Palm OS based and from what I have gathered about it from reviews, it can open almost any website which, indeed are largely HTML.

Hey i just offered what I believed to be the answer.. but if you want to know exactly why, you need to speak directly to Sprint... I'm pretty sure they have a script that customer service uses just for that question.

the pocket pc platform has a much greter aray of data uses. the bigest example is the internet explorer wich will do java and xtml as well as ssp scripting all things the palm browsers will not do another feature that the pocet pc does is windown media player which has the ability to stream media. all of those features utalize a much greater bandwidths then the standard palm features.
yes the new treo might do some of those same things too but right now pocket pc has a greater data potential then the palm
