Palm 700w Gets MSFP
Posted: 7:58 pm April 19th, 2006	Post a comment Mobility

Good news for the Treo/Palm fans, your beloved Windows Mobile 5 device finally gets MSFP/AKU2 rom. Yes, you can finally get Push Mail with your device. More at the Engadget Mobile but suffice to say you'll want to get your rom here.

As Engadget warns, make sure you backup your device because rom upgrades tend to wipe your device clean. Hopefully you run Exchange

How is this interesting? Well, 700w in spite of being the worst WM5 phone available, is likely the second best selling one (behind Sprint's 6700 which already had MSFP) and will hopefully give more people a reason to get with Windows Mobile 5 and reduce the number of times I have to disappoint customers by saying "No, we do not offer Blackberry. Oh, you're willing to pay? $5k for 5 users. Not interested, why, what ever made you change your mind?"

You can leave a response, or trackback from your own site.

That is one conversation I’ve had with countless clients simply because the store guys do not know how things work. There is always a desktop redirector tool but if you don’t have a desktop (all mobile sales force) then you need a BES. Parting with $5,000 is hard, especially during a potentially company ending lawsuit.

I just returned mine for good

Palm really did not live up to the hype with this device.

Whats on Vlad's Mind?
