With the launch of the new high-end enterprise-class Windows Mobile Sprint Treo 800w (expected on or around July 22nd) as well as the Verizon Treo 800w we continue to get more and more leaked information.

This latest round provides us with the most complete set of CDMA Treo 800w specifications yet and offers us a great glimpse inside what I expect will become (along with the GSM Treo 850) the most successful lineup of Windows Mobile smartphones on the market upon their release.
