Have look at this fairly hefty evaluation of the Treo 800w. They have many good things to say about it and point out a few obvious flaws along with a complaint about the battery. Sounds like another safe yet robust offering from Palm. Glad to see it.

Whilst some will now be going ape with Super Monkey Ball or smash happy with Crash Bandicoot Windows Mobile users can get down with SNES classics. We have already reported on a method to get NES games running, here is a little look at the NES successor, the Super Nintendo. Pocketnow has a nice video guide for you.
Palmsolo takes a look at the features of Palm’s newest offering. I’m actually pretty excited about it as it is a strong sign that Palm is stepping up to the plate to capture some of the market with a higher spec than the Centro.
Mobility Today have the scoop on the latest Palm Windows Mobile device the Treo 800W. Not a great deal for us on this side of the pond as it is a CDMA device but it should give us some pointers as to what to expect with the Treo 850V when it hits in the coming months in Europe. Check out the video after the break.
It seems like forever since the iPhone 3G hit and it’s about time something else came through the settling dust to try to save our brains. Boy Genius has posted a short update on an impending Google phone. Despite being 50% ugly and 50% screen it seems to be just around a corner, maybe not the next one but possibly the one after that.
Crackberry.com have managed to get the first live images of the BlackBerry Thunder and its touchscreen keyboard. The images also provide further confirmation that the Thunder’s operating system will still rely heavily on the BlackBerry menu button for key functions and advanced options vs putting all options on the main screen as the iPhone does. Read on for the pictures and a bit more info on this interesting new Blackberry.
Well it has been a busy weekend, yesterday I was discussing Windows Mobile on the msmobiles podcast and today I had a great time chatting with Michael Manna of the T4 Show about the iPhone 3G buying process in the UK and US along with first impressions of the App Store and Apps available at launch.

Was lucky enough to join the team at msmobiles again this Saturday and talk Windows Mobile with Edward form msmobiles and Alli from MyTreo.net. Not a great deal of Windows Mobile news this week because of the iPhone 3G launch but a few interesting topics to discuss. You can get the podcast from msmobiles or download it directly here. Show notes after the break.
Tracy and Matt take a look at the Redfly. I’ve been interested in this since the Palm Foleo was unfortunately dumped. If you think an Eee PC is too much and you feel little limited when working from you Windows Smartphone then this might just be the gap in the market you are looking for.
Since the disappointment of the Dension Gateway 100 not charging the iPhone 3G I have been seeking answers as to what the problem is and it appears that Apple have removed the ability to charge the iPhone 3G via Firewire. The iPods and original iPhone connector has two sets of power connectors – one for USB and one for Firewire but the new iPhone 3G only has USB charging pins.
