Quite a few people have been waiting for Cingular to get the PalmOne Treo 650, since up to now the only way to get a hold of the smartphone is to sign up with Sprint's CDMA service. It's definitely going to happen soon—there have just been too many signals heralding its release this week to think otherwise—but this is the first actual, branded picture I've seen of the phone. It looks like a Treo 650... with a Cingular logo. Amazing, I know.
A company called Enfora has released a funky-looking sled that clips to the back of the PalmOne Treo 600 and 650 that ads Wi-Fi (802.11b), freeing you up to use the SD card slot for other things (like storage). Each sled has its own battery that will enable up to 3 hours of Wi-Fi use and 5 days of standby, meaning you've got a fighting chance of actually getting some work done before it runs out of juice. The Treo 600 version is set to ship in February with the 650 version to follow in March—both for about $150.
