While Asia awaits the launch of the
Treo 700 PDA-phones, Palm today unveiled the
Black Tie Limited Edition Treo 650. Essentially a black-hued version of the current
Treo 650, this newest handheld was apparently created specially to celebrate the company's 10th anniversary launch of the Pilot, according to a press statement released earlier.
The Black Tie Limited Edition Treo 650 is not the first color variation of the popular handheld in Singapore. The first, a
Special Blue Edition, was introduced late last year. At S$1,010 (US$724.27), the new Treo 650 is priced at a slight premium above the previous color editions (S$968 (US$694.16)) and will come with a matching hard black case. It is immediately available in major retail outlets in the Republic.

O2 Singapore has just confirmed that the company's latest PDA-phone, the
Xda Atom Exec, will be available in retail outlets from the second week of July. The Atom Exec, which is the upgrade model of the
Xda Atom released in 2005, is expected to be priced at S$1,348 (US$966.65).
The new Atom Exec will come with several enhanced features over its predecessor, including a faster 520MHz Intel Xscale processor and 192MB of ROM, both of which are expected to improve the overall performance of the handheld. It will also feature a gun-metal matte casing and the updated Windows Mobile 5.0 with the new Messaging and Security Feature Pack.
