Advice needed: Should I wait for the 855p? - Page 2 - Treo Forum

I wouldn't say the WM devices/Treo brand will be top of the line, sounded more like they would be aimed at business users where the new brand/Nova would be more consumer orientated. One feature set for one group of people and one for another, with no doubt some crossover.

I re-read the article and your interpretation appears to be more accurate. Mine was based on an ongoing discussion at TC. As I said though, Colligan said alot without saying much, so its really hard to make any buy now or wait decisions.

Should I wait for an 855p and then wait further for Verizon to eventually offer it as one of their smartphones

.
So to get back to Jeff's original question, there may not be an 855p forthcoming and even IF it does arrive, you're right in thinking that Verizon will slow in offering/releasing it. So... your choices are limited to what is currently available for at least the next year, probably more, therefore you're back to choosing between the 755p or a Centro on CDMA w/Palm OS or jump over to ATT for a Centro or a 680 on GSM w/Palm OS.

Yep exactly.

Is that an invalid haircut or what is invalid about the avatar LL is that what happens to your hair in the winter?

You have to see it full size to get it. A little off topic, but here.

It just made me collapse laughing so I had to use it.

sorry for off topic but I just had to post something I understand why you are using it. Is that Nicholas Cage? it kind of looks like him but that hair is like way way wacko! Talk about a bad hair day!

Its definitely a photoshop. It appears to be Nicholas Cage, with Bruce Willis' forehead and then the bird.

I had not even noticed until your post was read that there was a bird on top. Ha Ha Ha
