As I recall, the 650 would offer TM users no benefit. The GSM version
of the 650 is designed to support EDGE, which TM has not implemented.
The big news with that model, at least to a lot of wireless customers,
is it finally brings Treo functions to CDMA users.

Huh? What, pray tell, was the Treo 300? And the Sprint variant of the Treo 600?
Both were Treos, both were CDMA.

I'm talking about high-speed network capability. The Sprint variant of
the 600 came after the GSM versions, IIRC. It wasn't until the recent
iterations of the Treo that you had full-fledged functionality on
anything that would qualify as a high-speed network because for a long
time GPRS was as close as you got in the U.S.

Yes, and it supported 1xRTT data, just like the CDMA version of the Treo
650. So, what's the difference?
