Palm Launches Updated Treo 750 with HSDPA Data in Hong Kong

News by Michael Oryl on Wednesday March 21, 2007.

Today the Hong Kong arm of Palm Inc. announced the availability of the Palm Treo 750 with HSDPA data. Previous versions of the 750 only had access to slower UMTS data rates. The updated 750 will run the same Windows Mobile 5 OS and support the same Palm enhancements as the UMTS version, including the improved Today screen, IM style SMS threading, and picture dialing.

There have been reports for months that the HSDPA ability of the Treo 750 and the Treo 750v (the Vodafone version) has always been there sitting dormant and merely needed to be enabled.

The updated Treo 750 will be available for purchase in Hong Kong today for roughly US$741 without a contract. No word yet on when and where else the updated Treo 750 will eventually go on sale.
