Not
that the Palm Treo Pro is officially announced yet but somehow, a Flash video
demonstration briefly appeared on Palm's very own website (it has since been
removed). Nevertheless, some screenshots stay and from what it looks, it might
be the earlier leaked and so far as
Palm Treo 850w aka
"Palm Drucker" Windows Mobile Professional
smartphone which features Palm's typical QWERTY thumb-keyboard. While the recently
launched Palm Treo 800w is working in CDMA networks only, it's expected that the
Palm Treo 850w (or Palm Treo Pro as we've learned now) is Palm's Treo 750
follower and therefore works with GSM and UMTS.

While specifications weren't unveiled, it's expected that the Palm Treo Pro
follows the trend by running on Windows Mobile 6.1, supporting GSM, UMTS and
HSDPA as well as Bluetooth and the first time, for a GSM/UMTS smartphone WiFi.
The screenshot indicates that the Treo Pro is a touchscreen device, most likely
featuring 320 x 320 pixel.
A release date is still unconfirmed but if Palm is ready with its Flash demo
for the web, it shouldn't take too long anymore.
