Link: Palm WiFi Technical Team "Decimated" - Treo and PalmOS news. Palm has never been a real fan of WiFi on smartphones. Frankly, the only Treo I have ever had that would do WiFi is the 700w running Windows, and it required an add-on SD card that sticks out of the Treo like a sore thumb. In fact, the suits are right; what with EvDO networks, and such, smartphones don't really need to have WiFi enabled. They are plenty fast; unless, of course, you are on AT&T like the new IPhone. Slow doesn't begin to describe AT&T. I kept the 700w and WiFi card, since it works fine when it connects to WiFi and my Slingbox at home. I can use it to watch my SlingBox anywhere a WiFi network exists, without paying steep cell phone bills. Uh, oh. Now, I am not only a geek without an IPhone, I have TWO Treos running. Oh, well.
