I Attended the Treo launch in Sydney, Australia last night and it wasn’t anything too exciting, obviously it would have been more exciting if I hadn’t had my Treo 750 since November.

2 interesting things were said:

1) Palm is currently testing compatibility across the Treo range with Windows Mobile 6, but were not willing to release any prospective release dates or even official confirm that us Treo users will get an update.

2) No wifi in the palm. Palm have examined usage patterns of Treos and decided that people primarily use wifi in Airports (with difficult login pages etc) and at home and it was decided for this Treo that they wouldn’t put wifi in there as they wanted to make a reliable phone and at this stage the battery performance is lacking and therefore it would drain too much of the battery to have both the Cell radio and wifi radio on at once.
