-- It's Coming Next Week! (http://discussion.visorcentral.com/vcforum/showthread.php?threadid=35749)

Talking It's Coming Next Week!

Finally, it is confirmed! The Treo 600 is just about to be released next week! I just learned this from speaking to a close friend who has the inside track from Handspring. He identified that just last night, he received a phone call from his brother in England, who used to work for Handspring � and confirmed the Treo 600 is about to be released next week! His brother had just spoken to his father in South Africa, who had just learned about the release of the 600 next week in the USA from a confirmed report he had just seen. This report was just forwarded to him from Australia, where a company, who is an off shoot of Handspring, had just intercepted a message going from the USA to Europe, stating that the decision had just been made to release the Treo 600 in the USA before Orange in Europe was going to release the product. This message was intercepted in Holland, where Handspring routes and scrambles their messages that go overseas. It is not a coincidence that the people Holland received this message this week, for it seems that Handspring always releases one of their premiere products the last week of the month whenever the orbit of Mars brings the planet closest to Earth. I have been waiting patiently with all of you, and I finally will be breaking my glass bank this weekend in order to count enough coins for a purchase next week! Hope you all can join me in enjoying the Treo 600 next week � again, with information from a �well informed� source!

From day one, when HS announced the T600, it said that the GSM version (Orange) would be released in the 3rd quarter and the CDMA version (Sprint) in the 4th quarter. So far, it seems that they are executing according to their planned schedule.

I just heard the same thing from my father's brother's cousin's son's nephew's ex-roomate!

Sorry, couldn't resist....thanks for the info!

No offence, with a post count of 1, and this sounding too good to be true, I will not hold my breath, however, I sure hope your informat is correct...

Happy Treo 600 user, so far. Thanx Cingular for having an unlocked phone.

My Treo 600 is my phone, my PDA, my watch, and my MP3 player. Oh yeah, I take a picture once in a while with it. Convergence is such a great thing.

I believe, I believe, I really do!

Funny, I just heard exactly the same thing, from exactly the same source...only it was about the release of the SGH-i500. And in this case Samsung's (Samsonite's) scrambler is in Ceylon (Sri Lanka)!

Just to bust your b@lls, it's "father's brother's nephew's cousin's former roommate."

Sorry guys

I hate to break it to you guys, but Sylvester Stallone's mother's dog has predicted that the treo 600 won't be released until Arnold Schwarzenegger is sworn in as president of the United States (After George W. is elected a third time and then recalled because of the two term limit, thus enabling Arnold to enter the recall election, even though he was not born in the USA). Incidentally, Schwarzenegger will qualify his decision to run as "the most difficult [decision] I have made since deciding to star in 'Jingle All The Way 2' (which will have been released in theaters 3 weeks prior to the recall)".

So, it looks like we will have to wait several more years.

Does this qualify as abuse of the forum?

BTW. there is a big chance Treo 600 will be priced at $699 with no contract.
