Treo 800w Coming to Sprint

Looks like it's semi-official...word on BGR and Engadgetmobile seems to point to a late summer release of the 800w, to finally replace the 700wx. But it says WM 6 Standard--in other words, no touch screen? Yuck. That's a deal-breaker for me, even though I'm a Palm OS guy for the most part. What gives? Am I correct here?

I didn't see anything on either of the sites you mentioned, though I did see it at other sites. It doesn't mention anything about it being standard though. Seeing as how this is a replacement for the 700wx it'll be Pro, and possibly WM6.1

It's an old Sprint release map dating back to Feburary which was prior to the official release of WM6.1 so the 800w may still have WM6.1 when it's eventually released

I can't believe the 800w hasn't even been announced when Japan is enjoying this:

In the article, it uses the word "standard" in lower case which, to me, implies Windows Mobile 6 is going to be a standard feature (much like air conditioning in your new auto) - if they had used it like "Standard" that would be a different thing altogether.

Just my humble opinion.
