Pics have surfaced of a new palm treo...codenamed gandolf...aimed to be a low end treo under 200buks...might even be touchscreen less...with wm6 and one with palm...but will this style be the form factor of the higher end treo's as well? e.g. treo-680 to 755p? Any thoughts news on this new treo..?

Yes that is definately smartphone. The Start button is on the bottom.

That looks a lot like the Creative Zen Vision:M Music player, but it's nice to see Palm refreshing the Treo design a little bit.

This thing looks god awful, I really hope the new treo's (800w) aren't going to look like that, jesus, talk about moving backwards, looks like they took the "styling" from the freakin treo 600

A matter of personal taste I suppose, but I think your nutts 😁

That Gandolf thing looks like hell, the 700 & 755 at least don't looke like a bunch of lego pieces stuck together like this gandolf thing does.
