We carry the 6600 too, and we've been told that we're not going to upgrade it EVDO, but bring out the 6700 instead.

I agree, wouldn't it be cheaper overall for a software upgrade rather than upgrade entire units?

Yes, the units have the EVDO chipset/radio in them. Verizon's versions of these phones already have the software support the handle EVDO - however getting Sprint to upgrade the 6600 has been a strange thing. I spoke to a few different level 2 vision reps and I was informed that while they can upgarde the software of the 6600 they could not upgrade my 6601. Go figure. After going around and around, they replaced my 6601 with the 6700. I am not the only person they have done thise with. If there was a software upgrade - why would they have replaced the entire unit at no cost? And yes I am a business customer.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,14692310 Sun, 30 Oct 2005 13:29:21 EDT Re: People will pay http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,14692201 shaner :

Shaner - I regret to tell you the the Treo 650 is not EVDO compatible. The Treo 700 will be, but Sprint will not get that for a little while and if you are partial to the Palm OS you might not like it since it uses WM 5.0
The reason I asked is because we just started to sell the 650 for Bell Mobility here in Canada last week and the Treo rep told me that there was a ROM upgrade coming to make it EVDO compatible in January. I don't know how true that is since the chipset in it is 1x only not EVDO.

Thanks!]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,14692169 Sun, 30 Oct 2005 13:01:28 EDT Re: People will pay http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,14692097 johnt : I have enjoyed my 6700 for the last 2 weeks I have had it. There are some sync glitches with ActiveSync 4.0 - but then again there have been glitches with Activesync for as long as I can remember. I like the WiFi, bluetooth is more stable then it was with my 6600, the 1.3 MP camera is a nice toy to play with. The 6700 is about the same size and thickness as the Treoo 600/650. I have placed them side by side and see very little difference. The screen, while smaller then the 6600 is functional and easy to use/read. The keyboard is excellent. All in all it is one of the better PDA phones I have owned. Hope that helps you.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,14692097 Sun, 30 Oct 2005 12:50:07 EDT Re: People will pay http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,14692018 AirGig : Hmmm, what do you think of the 6700? Is it too thick, screen too small and is the keyboard easy to use? Is it definately an improvement over the 6600? I do like that it includes Win Mobile 2005!

While someone that is heavily into downloading MP3s will know where to go to get low cost content, there are some people that are all about ease of use and might only want to download a few songs into their phone to use as ringtones. As long as there are people that are willing to pay, I have a feeling these prices are here to stay.

I personally can't wait for EVDO for other reasons. I replaced my PPC 6600 with the 6700 because of the higher speeds that EVDO offers. I have used Verizon's EVDO network and the data speeds are very impressive. Hopefully I will see that 'E' replace the 1x on my display soon.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,14691750 Sun, 30 Oct 2005 11:51:42 EDT
