I am pretty sure this will be the first Palm Treo CDMA EVDO being released outside the U.S. where it is available now as Treo 700w (Verizon Wireless) and Palm Treo 700wx (Sprint). Knowing that Telecom New Zealand has a close relationship with Sprint, I'd guess the version being released here is either the Palm Treo 700wx (pictured below) or a similar one."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/wey-20061010-palmtreo700wx.jpg" /><br /><br />Mauricio at Geekzone is reporting that Telecom New Zealand is preparing to announce the launch of the Treo 700w/wx (most likely, the latter) on October 19. In the coming months, we can also expect Telstra (Australia) to announce a Palm Treo for use on its newly-announced <a href="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/index.php?action=expand,51711">Next G</a> network. These are exciting times for Windows Mobile and Palm, as we finally see the new Windows Mobile-based Treos available in almost all regions around the world.
