Sprint Palm Treo Pro shows up at Best Buy
Last week, several blog sites, including Engadget Mobile, reported the appearance of the Palm Treo Pro on Sprint's Web site, but as soon as it appeared, it disappeared.
While this may be a case of someone getting a little too trigger-happy, the idea of a Sprint Treo Pro is certainly not a fluke, and in fact, the smartphone is now up on Best Buy's Web site.
The Windows Mobile smartphone is advertised for a whopping $699.99 (though we suspect and certainly hope the price will drop with a service agreement) and is currently listed as backordered. Up till now, the Treo Pro was only offered as an unlocked GSM phone. No word yet from Sprint on when the Treo Pro will make its official debut but we'll keep you posted.

Isn't Sprint a CDMA carrier?
Store guys say they are delaying original planned release of this week to get rid of Palm Treo 800w stock, which just dropped from $200 to $100 subsidized. The Pro is very similar to last year's 800w in features but does about a dozen things better.
Yes, it should be around May this year.
if you are on a family plan it will require a everything data family plan 1500 or 3000
or a indivual plan everything data 450,900 or simplyeverything

- Why get this when the Pre is coming out? A dozen things better? This is like "last chance to get Palm crap before the Pre comes out." Why not save your money to get (what most agree is) a revolutionary device, on Sprint.
